Converting Rb20E To Rb25Det

[LaneM95]

okay so i have decided to do the conversion to a rb25det into my standard r33 1994, the ones with the rb20e (apperently a shit car) i have the money for the conversion an i was just curious as to what i will need to modify/change for it to fit straight in onto the tranny? its a 4 speed auto, im just not too sure if it will bolt straight in?

I'm not real familiar with the RB20E, but the gearboxes bolt up O.K RB20DET to RB25DET and vice versa.

Photos of the engine?

Looks just like a VL/R31 RB30 really.

Yeah I've seen photos of them, but didn't know there were any in Aus, thought they were only a NZ thing. Must be horribly slow in an R33 lol

Awful. As I have said elsewhere recently, the last one I saw was in an R33 about 10 years ago, and it was able to lose a drag race against a 60 series Landcruiser. But the car was in spectacular condition because it was so awful to drive it never got used!!

Lol damn. The RB30 in my old VL, was O.K but it had a slightly bigger cam and has been rebuilt. Think the VL calais were slightly lighter, but roughly the same weight anyway, I could just keep up with SV6 commodores
