I need to know what is required. Like, certain electronic connectors, physical connectors, and any vacuum lines.


I managed to get a BARE RB20 ECCS head for free for my NICS engine so I thought I would just swap it and it also allowed me to replace the head studs with ARP head studs.

Maybe I should rephrase my question as I am now seeing how confusing it is. I currently have the ECCS head on the NICS Block but this shouldn't matter. SPECIFICALLY WHAT I NEED is how to hook up the (ECCS) intake manifold to the (ECCS) head I am also using an EBAY front facing plenum.

I know jack about the red top but the intake was quite different & doesn't work, or doesn't work easily, I know where there's a good condition red top out of a z31 in NZ

thats not what im asking. Lets completely forget that I'm asking about the NICS and ECCS differences. I'm asking how can I hook up my bare ECCS RB20 Silvertop intake manifold to my RB20 ECCS Silvertop head. I'm doing more research and it looks like I'm needing an IACV valve, the underside coolant passages, I need to know about connectors and which ones I need.

    • Hi...a little refresh. Is Nistune gonna be enough to run BoV? Or do i need some proper ECU? 
    • Yep that's pretty much what I want to see. Racecars that look and sound like the Group A but with newer tech underneath to make them faster and safer. I'm sure there's enough VK-to-VN commodore, E30 BMWs and Foxbody mustangs shells around to make up a decent number of cars with hopefully a couple of sierras, rx7 and R31s in there too. 
    • Contact Jessestreeter.com/Skevas Racing/JustJap for a new r34 rb gearbox or go a cd00# conversion. No point playing with unknown condition gearboxes.
    • Such a shame places like Amaroo Park have been redeveloped, smaller tracks always make for good racing. Cheers for sharing @PranK there's some good Lakeside video's too. Its so hard with older the cars as parts are so rare and everything was made for a particular chassis at that point in time. Even the V8 Supercar Blueprint era cars are all different between each chassis within a team as they learnt things and made improvements. The COTF cars between each Chassis builder is different too especially motor/oil systems/intakes. The Group A stuff is worth so much too especially chassis with good history. The only way to do it would be composite panels and similar engine drivelines to the original cars. Ford sierra running Focus RS driveline, Commodore running a short stroke LS/LT or a Falcon with coyote and a H Pattern dog box. Could use a standard ecu across all models with a Torque Map and DBW for parity which is not even used in Supercars currently. Hell a TCM is almost a full chassis car these days and the suspension is not even close to standard style in the front running cars.
