Hey Everyone, Waleed here, fairly new to the scene, bought a r32 gtst with a rb25det s2 as a project about a year and half ago, only now have I been able to get some time to do stuff, just got a few tips and pointers if people can help with the swap and what I may be looking at to do, I’m keeping it as stock as possible to get the car on the road and once driving I’ll start throwing money into the car.

Ive also been told to get the rb20 rubber mounts for the car as they will be the ones that will fit right in if that’s correct or not please help

I concur.

Don't bother trying to do anything to restore the dash back to the way it should be. This is a prime opportunity to get it flocked or otherwise covered with a suede/alcantara type material. My dash is near perfect, and I still think if it was ever fully exposed or out of the car, it would not go back in with the 30 year old vinyl still on it.

Interior door handles are available and not too expensive. Worth the $$ IMO. Try not to break any of the other plastics, as the 'Muricans have snaffled most of them up by now.

      Shifting questions

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone

      Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.

      I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.

      I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?

      I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
