Replacing Gts4/stag Block With Gtst Block?

[SKiT_R31]

Hey all,

Pushed my car a bit too hard on the weekend (Ran a 13.1 1/4 mile though) and have done some damage to the bottom end, dropped about half the compression on cylinder 5.

My car is an R33 GTS4 RB25DE+T, so has a GTR gearbox and AWD sump.

I have a normal RB25DET short block spare, just curios if i can pull the top off and just swap the blocks? I know the RB25DET block will bolt up to the gearbox, but is it the same as the AWD sump?

I havent done an engine swap in an AWD before, is it possible to leave the sump/front diff in the car, or does it have to come out to manuever the engine into the box etc?

Cheers

Normal block will not swap with AWD block.

Good time to forge your existing internals. Or line up an RB26.

Normal block will not swap with AWD block.

Uhk bugger, cheers for that.

RB26 has crossed my mind, can i run the RB25 loom and just use an RB26 injector loom, and fit an RB26 powerfc and set it to my single AFM?

My engine is factory N/A, I can fit low comp forgies but wont have get oil squirters, are they easy to fit (if i pilliage from my RB25DET block?), also does anyone know if the oil pump would be the same?

Cheers again,
