Rb25 Into 32 Gtr

[Idon28]

Circumstances have left me with an R33 RB25DET and a R32 GTR shell, and not much cash.

I have searched for this before, but couldn't find anything concrete, just people telling not to do this for X reasons, but I have some mechanical questions to do this conversion, and what actually needs to be done. Im set on this swap, and I won't be rebuilding the 26 lump.

Question is, the RB25 I have came from a RWD car, so is it a matter of finding a GTST subframe, replacing the GTR subframe with it, and the engine bolts right in?

also, is a GTST driveshaft needed? or the RB25 transmission ends up bieng in the same place to use the GTR driveshaft?

Last question, If I were to source a 4WD RB25, would it bolt up to the RB26 oilpan and transmission?

Also, if I would have a RB25DE block from a 4WD GTS, would the RB26 oil an and transmission bolt up to it?

Since I already have all the RB26 stuff, it might be cheaper just to bolt in a RB25DE long block if its compatable.

again, rebuilding the RB26 is out of the question.

stagea awd block fits the awd sump, sure the gts-4 block would fit too. i have a spare 23U block from the stagea if you are interested.
