Hey guys i was just wondering if anyone knows if there is a power fc that will work in a R32 gtst with a R33 gtr RB26 engine and and if there is still any available for this type of conversion ? .The reason that i ask is that im looking at buying or building such a set up.

afaik there is no power fc (btw power fc's are discontinued) that is designed specifically for what you seek....but I think that would be obvious. You can still install a power fc and custom fabricate the loom to make other things work if you wish. You'll probably have more luck in the FI section with this query.

microtech or something else would be better.

but ill guess the R33 GTR PFC would be better suited for this..

Yeah i thought that the obvious would be one to suit a 33gtr but wasnt sure on the loom side of things.I might be better of to go a motec or haltec, i dont like wolf they have a shitty cold start and (mircotech depending on which) one are ok, but thanks for the reply guys, oh and yeah i did know that power fc are discontinued but only on certain models.

Martin Donnon on HPI magazine did similar conversion before. He installed a RB26DETT onto a R33GTSt 4 doors with an automatic gearbox. He used my old R32GTR power fc for the car. I think they installed some sort of harness for the auto gearbox. Email HPI magazine for more info.

Should be no problem if you use the GTR loom. From what I have read the Power FC model number is the same for R32 & R33 GTRs and I have read R33 GTRs being tuned with R32 GTR computers (remappable).

If you need assistance wiring up the GTR loom just ask. I use the factory RB25 looms when transplanting into R32's to retain factory engine management functionality which allows the Power FC for the RB25 to be used. The same will apply here.

Hey thanks for the info and help offered.Yeah i have read that about the GTR computer swap for the 33's, obviously the factory 33 computer isnt remappable.
