Ok, I read over the entire FAQ, and unfortunately my question wasn't answered. I'm looking at a used R32/R33 GT-R Power FC and I can't tell if it's L-Jetro or D-Jetro. The serial number is: PFC GTR33 000-0062 On some others I see either L or D after the "GTR33" but this has nothing. Can someone please help me to figure out what it is?

If I install an RB25DE with carbs in an early Skyline with an upgraded ignition system can I completley eliminate the ECU and wiring harness? Because it seems like the only things the ECU really needs to control is timing (which will now be handled by the ignition system) and air/fuel ratio (now controlled by the carbs). Thanks!

Any updates on the power you are putting down? I'm very interested to see the progress in this thread. Also, another question, concerning the RB26 head. If I wanted to run the intake as an open ITB setup with trumpets, would it just be a matter of cutting off the surge tank and welding on some trumpets? Of course I'd have to switch to a MAP sensor, could I pick up an RB26 GT-R Power FC D-Jetro and have it remapped for N/A?

Well it's going to be a KGC10, not the KPGC10, I can't afford a genuine GT-R at $100k+ USD. I know, the car should retain the stock L20 motor, but that's not what I'm going for. It's not a motor I want to deal with building, when I could just throw a RB25DE in there with ITB's, extractor, management, cams, etc and make 200+rwhp. All while having a much smoother motor, with much better reliability.

I guess I'll use this thread to introduce myself too. I'm an American, living in Japan, currently driving a turbo S15 Silvia, it's a great car, but I've always been a fan of old school Japanese cars. My wife has given me approval to buy a Hakosuka (early 1970's Nissan Skyline). So I'll be picking one up, and I wasn't exactly sure what I was going to do with it, but a nice deal has fell in my lap. A friend from work is leaving Japan back to the US in October, and has said I can take anything I want from his 1996 Nissan Skyline GTS25 4 door for free, since he was going to junk it anyways. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the car, it's fairly common for people here to just take their cars to a junkyard when they leave. So, after doing some more research, I've decided to swap the N/A RB25DE into the KGC10. It's been done many times before, and is a fairly simple swap from what I've read. But what all should I grab from this R33 to transplant over to the KGC10? Here is the list I've made up so far: Engine ECU Complete Wiring Harness All dash wiring Brakes/hubs front & rear (would these be a worthwhile upgrade on a KGC10?) Electronic climate control Air Conditioning parts Can anyone think of anything else I should grab? Initial plans for my KGC10 are to swap out the stock L20 motor for a stock RB25DE with RB20DET 5spd transmission. Plans eventually are to build an RB25/RB30 with ITB's, cams, header, head work, etc, etc. I know I'm not in Australia, but I'm hoping you guys can help me out, since this seems to be the most active Skyline forum on the net. Thanks! edit: oops, I just realized there is a Skyline specific general discussion. Could a mod please move this there? Sorry for the trouble
