Hi guys,

Im trying to source a cylinder head for the new engine I am building for my R34 GTR. I want to kee my current engine intact as a spare and build an entirely new engine and just do a swap when its ready.

So, apart from some porting, what exactly is the diferences between an R34 and R33/R32 RB26 head?

I believe the R34 exhaust camshaft is slightly diferent so it can drive the R34 CAS sensor.

I want to keep all R34 sensor compatability so I can run an FC on the new engine, so to do this can I buy an R32/R33 head and then just put a set of R34 cams in it?

Cheers,

Ian

Well problem solved, I dont need to worry about R32/R33 heads now.

I'll be able to confirm the CAS drive diferences for sure in a week or so. Just sourced a low K R34 head from a vspec 2.

Cheers,

Ian

dont know if the cam profiles are different, but guess if your building a new engine for it then you might go aftermarket cams, in that case the only difference is the drive, so just make sure you order sticks for an r34 gtr so the drive is the same, the bare head is the same

the bare heads are all the same. no difference in porting or anything else. the only difference is in ancillaries. and of course the 34 cam drive for the CAS is different. cam profile is a little different too, but lift is the same across them all.

Just to dig up and old thread....

Im looking at going the 26/30 route for my gtst and just starting to put parts aside....

Long story short, any of the 32, 33 or 34 gtr heads will be as good as each other??

    • I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real
    • Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.
    • No clips on this one like the other connector. Only that red tab that I can push slightly up.
    • For any loom connector that has an obvious release that resists pushing far enough to unclip, just spray some silicone lube into it. You might also benefit from using a bent screwdriver or small pick to push in the right place at the right angle.
    • Hey all, I went to try and fix my indicator not canceling, but I couldn't remove the clockspring cable under the column so I could twist that green thin. Anyone know how to remove this cable? I see this red tab but didn't have any luck. I was thinking of unscrewing it but wasn't sure if it would cause issues. I did notice for my indicator stalk, 2 out of 3 cables were plugged in but the last cable wouldn't fit in the stalk. I'm getting it's for fog lights. It was like this when I originally pulled it off.
