hey guys just a quick question.

my cousin had a 96 R33 GTR with enough mods to get him putting out 350kw at all four wheels until he got rear ended at the light by some lady in a landcruiser.

my question is

he is certin that his rear end is of no use like tailshafts, diff etc but front end and gearbox is all still good.

if i were to transplant his motor into my R33 would i be able to hook up his front driving bits to my car basically transforming it into a GTR???

or it cant be done so just do the gearbox and engine transplant and leave it as a RWD car.

many thanks

Ash

no flaming here dude. good to get some feedbacks.

i understand having a heap of power for a RWD car wont be of use but ye reason for this conversion was id be getting it for a very very very very cheap price.

thanks all

    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here. 
    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
