Well, to start off I have an R32 GTR and currently live in South Korea. One of my bearings decided to go bad, and metal shavings went all through the engine, and I have a cracked head (that was a result of to much boost). Obviously I need a new engine. I searched through the threads and could not find the specific answers to my questions. Here are my quesitons, before I go spend 6K (USD) on a rebuilt R34 engine.
1. ECU- currently I have a POWER FC for the R32. Will the swap work, if I plug everything up to an R34 engine? I know the crank angle sensor is a little differnt. Not sure if the connections are the same, and if the fuel maps, cam profiles and other factors going to throw the ECU off. Any help here would be appericated.
2. Clutch- does the R34 crank shaft have the same bolt pattern as the R32 on the flywheel side (will my R32 clutch bolt to an R34 engine)? Also is the pilot bearing size the same (will the input shaft of my stock R32 transmission fit into the back of a R34 cranck shaft)?
3. Oil pan- since the R34 has smaller overall dimensions, I have read that I will have to use my R32 oil pan to make it fit properly. Are there any issues bolting the R32 oil pan to an R34 block? Any issues with the oil pick up tube.
Thanks for all your help.
