Hey guys.. im new to the forum and thought id get in straight away and try to get an answer to my question..

I have just bought my first r32 and it has had a rb25det conversion from the previous owner.. when i bought the car the motor has been blown and i now have to swap it out for another..

I have a mate that is willing to sell me an rb25det neo on the cheap.. good kms and good engine.. I would like to put it into my 32 but have been reading that this conversion is a little bit of a pain in the behind due to different wiring etc.. My questions...

Is this conversion worth it?

Will i have heaps of problems with the wiring?

Any parts i will have to change or are most interchangable?

Has anyone done this before?

Is there a wiring service that i can send the loom/looms to that can wire it for me?

I would love all the information anyone can muster at this stage.. as I want my car up and running...

Thanks in advance!! ;)

I have a RB25DE Neo for sale. I've been told that the difference between the DE and DET is the pistons so you could pop your ones in my one ;)

PM if your interested. Located in 2165 NSW.

there should be plenty of info if you have a search on the forums.

i wouldnt think there would be a great deal of difference between a 25det and a neo 25det, especially when all the hard work has been done already swapping the rb20 for an rb25 in the past

Wiring wise the Neo is completely different to the R33 25's. The head is also a fair bit different. I'm wondering though how a Neo would run on earlier electronics, would save a lot of f**k around as you'd basically just need to pull and replace the engine.

      George's R33 GTST build

      By pogman · Posted

      Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.

      They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.

      I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)

      You can just get the injector bosses, which allows top feeds to fit. He can use the same injectors without issue, like these (another option): https://rocketindustries.com.au/af59-2210-rb25-fuel-injector-inserts     The Racework ones look a bit better: https://www.nzefi.com/product/raceworks-lower-injector-mounting-boss-kit-for-r33-rb25det-s14-s15-sr20det/   You could also just get a similar kit like the Radium one by Plazmaman: https://plazmaman.com/product/nissan-rb25det-r33-billet-fuel-rail/?srsltid=AfmBOoogfYq49X0fu2Wdbf8yOf6zt9egyPAif_gn3Qr3G8hzAphhTgOkO70
