Hey guys ive seen and heard of a few R32 skyline's running the RB25Det engine not from factory but conversion's that have been done.

I currently have full rolling gear from a R33 skyline engine, gearbox etc and im doing some research before looking into buying a R32 and doing a conversion.

What im asking now is what parts can be transferred from a R33 skyline to a R32 skyline and what is involved in converting the full running gear from the RB20det to the Rb25det including the gearbox which is manual

So do the brakes from R33 fit the R32 ?

So atm just asking some general things to see if this is a viable option to take.

will i need a new ecu to run the rb25det in the R32, does everything bolt up engine gearbox or do they need to have custom mounts made ?

any help is appreciated

Thanks

Brakes are bolt on provided you use the R33 rotors and calipers. And the engine conversion is relatively straight forward provided you also have the loom.

The loom needs a few mods, the gearbox will require a new tailshaft, you will require a new gearbox cross member. If you have the std RB25 eco then you can use it with teh modded R33 wiring loom.

There are things that need doing but if you do a search you will find its been pretty well covered in the Forced Iduction section of the forum

    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
    • Huh, wonder why it blew then. I never really beat on the car THAT hard lol I dailyed it and the turbo blew after 6 months
    • That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php
    • Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.
    • I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
