There are a few differences, one being the sensor plugs on r32 are round, square on a31. Also the r32 engine has a little more power in stock form. The r32 has factory bov and a31 doesn't. I have heard there is more potential for higher power outputs from the a31 engine, not exactly sure how or why though. Not sure on if the turbos are the same

Edited by Love_Hate

The cefiro inlet cam has a longer duration and the exhaust cam is retarded about 2 deg from the R32 cam.

ceff afm, coilpacks and ignitor are different.

ECU also only has 1 fuel map and 1 timing map as opposed to the skyline. it has 2 fuel and 2 timing maps.

If you look at the 2 maps the skyline runs 3 deg more timing and has different load tp scaling.

thanks for all the replys so with these spitfire plugs can u get spitfire coils that u can just plug in to replace the stock coil packs over coil pack problems?

They are adapters. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...mp;hl=splitfire Seems Splitfire didn't want to manufacture different coilpacks for the same engine. If you could get hold of a R32 coil pack loom and are 1/2 handy with electrics you could easily knock some up yourself.

so that is only for the adaptors then u would have to get ur hands on some 32 coilpacks to plug in them or do u buy the aftermarket ones as shown on the pics below the adapters ?

the turbo is different also, R32 is ball bearing ceffy is plain bearing. also slight differences in the exhaust side.

later ceffys run the rounder R32 style loom plugs, but most are early ones

AFM, coils, CAS and some other sensors are the same as R31 Redtop RB20DET. turbo is also the same as that of a redtop.

loom (bar the plugs), injectors, head is all the same as r32.

while working on my dad's cef (series 1) I found that it had more parts in common mechanically (well, engine and electrics) with the R31 GTSR than it did with the R32 GTSt.

  • 4 months later...

i just found out that my R32 RB20DET engine is being run off a cefiro ECU...

can anyone tell me if this is dangerous for the engine?

i'm trying to track down an R32 ECU, but having no luck so far...

if anyone can help me by answering that question, it would be GREATLY appreciated... :D

    • I do believe from context he is talking about a S0/S1 R33 RB25 with associated ECU and Wiring for that, and a manual gearbox into a R34 N/A Auto. I don't have the knowledge of all the pinouts and such but my gut feeling from doing my own conversion is to use as much of the R33 stuff that you can. The "car" wiring is quite seperate from the "Engine" wiring when all things are considered. The only things to truly consider 99% of the time is the cluster, reverse lights and potentially disabling the 'not in P/N' immobilizer circuit.
    • A realistic expectattion of how long it has to last also comes down to.... when do you think you will be banned from registering and driving old petrol powered shitters? It's 27 years since that thing was built. It probably rusted out 15 years ago. It was probably repaired and looked OK for another 10. If you do a similarish bodge job now, or perhaps slightly better with some actual rust conversion and glassing, then.... get another 10-15 years out of it, after which you'll only be permitted by the CCP to drive electric cars manufactured in their Shenzen zone anyway. 
    • Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).
    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as 
    • Shit thing to find eh? I guess the big issue is that whatever "fix" you do now, it might slow the rust down but won't fix it. I just wanted to add that in no way is fixing sheet metal in 3 dimensions the place to start with welding....that is a pro only job because its too hard to work out where things should be, let alone doing a clean enough job that it can look OK and still be strong too.  I needed to get a new rear quarter panel on the GTR and it took a pro weeks to get the old one off cleanly, new one on in the right place and looking somewhat like it should have with most of the previous connecting panels in place. Gluing a couple of bits of metal together with a welder in the garage is doable, but that is totally different to doing panel  replacement
