CAS is Crank Angle Sensor and TPS is Throttle Position Sensor.

The engine won't operate correctly with the stock ecu... you will need to re-tune the stock ecu or use a piggy back etc.

I use a simple rpm window switch sold by JEGS in the US to controll the VCT.

Change the fuel pump.... by now it's at least 15 years old if it's the origional. You should be able to find a suitable drop in replacment from nismo etc... or even a low km GTR pump.

If you do go ahead with the swap, double whatever budget you work out... trust me. Also, before you install the new engine get it checked (you don't want to go through all this just to find out it's a dud) and replace ALL the service items- belts, timing belt/idler bearing, clutch etc... I'd also advise replacing the water pump and oil pump for a N1 pump with a crank collar if your going to modify the new engine.

The rb20 gearbox won't put up with alot of torque and abuse... go with the rb25 box.

What is a crank collar and why change the clutch?

Speak to a mechanic that can do all of this stuff for you, you are just going to end up shit creek if you have to come ask here about every single item all the time.

I like learning about things so that I will know what is going on.

    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
    • Ok...its taking me long enough to finally do this.  Feck financial security...heart disease will get me soon enough anyway So welcome to the garage..."Clem" Belsil80 has been running a 370Z in Super TT series. So after entering with him in last years Winton 300 i figured I  need my own car. Seems SAU Vic race cars need to be yellow....{tick} Reckon with enough motor i will be able to make up for the lack of talent and stay ahead of the 370Z... but the LS powered S13 and E36s are a ways up the road Aim is to have a car that doesnt stop or turn but has a bit of shed built motor with jam...maybe some cream  First step is getting this ex drift car log booked I am keeping faithful silver car. As the road-club car gets upgrades the race car wil get the sloppy seconds
    • Assuming that they will come off without damage at all.... i would have thought just pull straight up off the spindle with a something or other than can reach underneath. Have you searched for youtube vids of people doing similar on R34s or any other Nissan from the same vintage? They should be the same technique, in all likelihhood.
    • Keeping in mind that sandblasting is really aggressive on softer metals like cast alloy, and you can do damage that you might regret. For trash wheels, not a problem. For wheels with value/scarcity issues, etc.... perhaps a less aggressive media is a better choice?
