Or Au thermo's.

AU on the R32/R33? I found they don't fit as well. The AU's are a little too tall and they are too thick (fouling the a/c pump hose)

The EL/EF thermo's are positioned towards the centre of the shroud so you can trim the bottom nicely if needed. The AU's on the other hand are right down the bottom. So only way to trim is the top of which looks messy and is more difficult to get right.

EL/EF are still the way to go over an AU fan.

Sorry I didnt notice you had a 32, I definatly wouldnt be going to the trouble of putting a 26 plenum on a 20,

the amount of work required to fit it all up wouldnt b worth while.

I'd just stick with the stock fan and trim it back as mad082 said, thats all I did with my 33 when I first got my hybrid kit and it worked fine.

      Thanks mate 👍 The car was brought into the UK by a USAF mechanic until he was stationed back to the US, one owner later I bought her back in 2009. Luckily the only corrosion was on the sill seams, so once taken back to metal and treated and sealed all ok, I then undersealed the car myself and check yearly and treat any corrosion which to be honest is zero. She's garaged most of the time and hardly ever driven in the rain, but as you say most are rotten unfortunately, I was lucky in finding her as she was and still is in excellent condition.

      Stunning car.  Looks amazing!  You're in the UK?  How the hell do you stop your car rotting away beneath you?  British cars are the WORST I've ever seen in regards to rust.  Some of the cars SR Autobody have done are borderbeyond saving.

      RB20 and 25 NEO differences

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      I have up to date pics of the engine build and turbo conversion over on my instagram @skpro_jects if you want to take a deeper look.   Basically the exhaust manifold is straight bolt on and the ports match (they arent any smaller than a 25 or 26 head).    the intake ports are different shape so the 20/25det manifold will bolt up but wont match properly or seal. You will need to port match using the 25det gasket as a stencil. Personally i ran the entire stock 20neo intake setup and have configured the swirl valves and torque valve to work based on my custom parameters to help with off boost response and spool. But this is using a standalone aem v2 ecu. The stock 20det ecu wont be able to control them.

      Hi. a little later but if the topic is here. So...the exhaust is the same and you can use 25/Turbo or any aftermarket? What about intake side? Is it too "plug n play" or? (i do not remember for 100% but i think that one intake to head gasket was little bit different than on the RB25 - i bought gasket kit way back) I know that even if it "plug" those butterfly swirls would cause ECU to be confused or?   Just asking for the info 🙂 and of course the RB25 things are easier to come by
