Nissan Skyline Gts R32 4Door

[skygt20]

Hi,

I am new here. I have a nissan skyline gts r32 (rb20de) 4door sedan rwd but I am planning to put R26dett. Any suggest/support will be helpful. Thanks.

Put a rb25 much easier

[VRdrift]

ooh yes ^^ RB25 way easier,

[R TUNE]

look in the forced induction thread there is a lot of info on the swaps.

[toffy]

Why is it easier? , wouldn't it be easier to slap a 26 in since they came from factory with one?

RB30DET

Check mine

Id actually pay to see all these guys who swear by the rb25 to actually install one themselves.

Easy conversion if you plan ahead, All comes down to money as usual.

Take 1x smashed R33, Remove engine/box complete with crossmembers.

Swap engine harness, heater hoses and fittings, smic, power steering, slave cylinder etc

Fit 25 into R32, sort wiring, tailshaft, intercooler pipes, speedo drive.

Its the knowledge and this site that makes it EASY, A hoist helps!

I did 25DET swap last week but thanks for the walkthrough

I still say better off with a 26DETT.

I say better off a 26DETT,

I say better off a 26DETT,

You might as well go into someones project thread and tell them to sell their car... stupid

Quite the opposite actually.

Stupid? the bloke is new to skylines. its hardly a project. he is asking for advice. and in my opinion, buying an r32 gtr would be a better idea, taking into account the amount of money, time and know-how needed to purchasing and fitting all the supporting mods it takes to a) do the engine swap, and b) making the car stop, handle, and road worthy after its done. is this not an online forum where members are able to give their advice when asked?

OP, just to keep these guys happy, go buy an rb26 cut, put the 32 up on blocks in your shed and go for it. fingers crossed its not still sitting there in 2 years time in bits and pieces..

Of course your opinion makes sense upon elaboration Adam. But the bloke has posted his aspirations for his sedan in the sedan/ceffy/taxi subforum - and you enter his thread and throw a 'piss it off and buy a GTR' one liner? Come on...

[Nic_A31]

Maybe he wants to build his car, not buy it.

My first Cefiro I've been working on for 2.5 - 3 years. When I got it, I didnt have half a clue about what I was doing, and I've just done bits n pieces over the years, and that's taught me a lot. On my other (daily) Cefiro I just did an RB25DET conversion in ~8-10 working hours..

So maybe this guy is a complete noob, but we all start learning somewhere (and it's not taking people's advice to get someone else to do it all for you).

valid point. i spose i was a bit how ya goin. but we all know how many people jump on these forums and ask for advice on doing this, that and the other, knowing full well that they are just bored and shit talking on a forum. not saying this guy is, but for a first post its pretty advanced.

thats pretty impressive..

[Sarumatix]

as an owner of a 32 sedan with an RB26, I say go for it .

[weapon_unknown]

26 bolt onto the 20 or 25 sump? or do you fk around with the 26 sump or do are there aftermarket sumps?

[Luciano]

common solution = modified/cut&shut 26 AWD sump with Tomei sump baffle
