You'll need the pinout diagrams for both the current engine and the new engine as a minimum. wiring diagram for the sr will help but isn't essencial as you can trace everything you need with the pinouts.

An SR engine crossmember, engine, gearbox and loom/ecu would probably help.

RB g/box crossmember can be modded to suit, same with an sr crossmember.

Tailshaft may need modification, though i dont know for sure. SR shaft has the right splines and diff flange though.

couple of adapters for the heater hoses and some custom pipework for inlet/intercooler piping and a modded front pipe.

Thats about it, it's a pretty easy swap.

don't do it.

it will endup costing like 5g to get it done, and although the car will be very well balanced for drift,

If you spent the same money on castor rods, good bushes, swaybars and coilovers. the car will handle perfectly for drift.

+ RB20s are great little drift engines!!!

just add cams, and an 2530 and you have got 200rwkw and 8000rpm of reving power!!!

correct me if im wrong..but wouldnt it throw off the weight balance as your putting a lighter motor in the front end, an sr being a shorter motor and all alloy... How does it sit over the front end in comparison to the rb?

People in Japan do this conversion in R32's and Cefiro's as the RB20 has a big torque hole down low. However for what the conversion will cost I would suggest just working the RB20 and getting good suspension etc. As already said, a GT2530 will cure the torque problem and make the engine very Drift friendly.

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.        
    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too. This are high flowed SS-1 models with ball bearing conversion done.  Car have managed to pull 485awkws @ 20Psi so far pushing limitations of factory built engine. The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
