Well I have 1991 r32 gts25 4 door skyline with a rb20det in it around 170 kw atw

I want do swap a enigne to a rb26dett and also make the driveline Rwd (rear wheel drive)

What would be the best way and how could you do it ?

I have a halfcut gtr r32 in mind with a g4 link ecu and for the drive line a rb25det gearbox and drive shalf also diff

Is there anything else i would need to do ? I know theres something with the sump but I need some help

So anyone who has done this before with making a RWD rb26dett please help or if know anything that could help me

I am trying to come up with track drifting car that ISN'T rb25det ( too much of the rb25det drifter )

yep 25/30 is a good option, but even if you want to keep it twin turbo do a 26/30, these see big numbers built and balanced right.im just looking into this atm as im thinking of buying a laurel shell and either engine choice will be the way to go. its all about the coin in the end and how long you dont want the car off the road?

done the same with a gts4 engine piece of cake

take the front cvs off and shafts out simple split pin punch and knock the pins out pull of the cvs

take the top cover off the front diff on the exhaust side of the engine free the front diff centre by grinding away one side or a couple notchs

proceed to grind the sump flush removing the housing the front diff sits in jump on the other side start grinding the bits that stick out which is the cv mount on the intake side this side needs to be grinded pretty close to the side of the sump as it needs to clear the steering knuckle at the bottom of the steering rack you will notice if you have not grinded enough as the sump will sit on the steering rack knuckle pull engine again and grind some more

all up took me about 45mins of grinding and algud bonus is you wont need to move the oil pickup and install a rwd sump

giving you 5.0litres of oil in the sump instead of 4.6 makes a big difference and the alloy sump is finned unlike the rwd crappy steel one

    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
    • There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
