Rb25det In To A R32

[Deanc]

Hi all

just what a few peoples opinion on doing this and if its a stragith sawp and what probs i can get while doing this to. Just wanting to know be for i do.

i Had a R33 GTST which was a Ride off now and everything is still fine just the body is stuffed, i was just thinkin off puttin all my gear into a R32. or should i just put it back in to a R33 shell. if you have any other surgestions please let me know.

thanks dean

it would be easier to put it back into an r33.

r32 swap has different lengthed driveshafts, motor mounts,power steering pump,and the wiring needs to be modified.The tranny is a different size so the mounts need to be modified there also,and if your speedometer is an electronic output on your old tranny it will not work with the r32 speedometer.

i did an r34 rb25 so its a bit different than your motor so the wiring was more difficult. but in my opinion it is well worth it,i love the power that it has now,in such a light car.

good luck

^^^^^^^^^^^

oh yea, thats what i was thinkin lighter car and stuff.

how long did it take you to do eveything, could it be done in one solid week of changing everything over.

and you did it your self yeah?

you'll need:

32 engine mounts

32 radiator

modified wiring

possibly tailshaft, 33 one might bolt up,

a/c p/s you'll be able to bolt on r32 gear to your 25

my conversion took about a week.

wiring was modified. tailshaft was shortened/lengthend i cant remember but it was one of them.

speedo had to be modified to work

love the torque the engine gives though

Basically, all you need is an engine, the ECU and the engine loom.

The R32 gearbox appears to be strong enough to handle a RB25DET. I've been pushing 180awkW out of mine, and the gearbox is still fine (granted, mine is GTS4). Then you don't need to worry about speedos and diffs and driveshafts and gearbox mounts and ...

You need to use the R32 A/C compressor and P/S pump.

yeah mine took about a week in total also.its pretty simple,just take your time and do things right the first time and you wont have any problems

good luck

i got the RB25det engine loom ECU tail shaft diff and gear box, i had a R33 but it a write off now but the engine and everything is fine in it just the body is stuffed.

my 25 in 32 is running a rb20 box and im making around 300kws at ground with no issues in box. a thought for you

[Deanc]

ok sounds all good think im might just have to do it now.

what about insureance? do u tell themabout the 25 in a 32. whats the go with that.

and is hard to get the engine number to match the other chassie number?
