I moved it to the correct place lee

You gearbox will be a straight swap and the engine would fit in on the same mountings. The loom would also just plug in as far as I know but i`m not 100% on the ECU side of things as the 34 is a slightly different engine!! Why do you need to swap it for a 34 engine ?

Interesting thread.

Richard, what about dumping an RB26 into my GTS-T?

Viable? Easy?

will fit into gtst no hassle needs ecu and few other goodies to run will go nicely

 

[jamiemoles]

OK. I might be able to get an RB26 for £700ish. So what *exactly* do I need apart from the ECU? I might just start shopping....

i would think they would both work being as the main differences as far as I know in the GTR34 is the g-meter in dash as well as the other monitors, getrag transmission, and VVTi. thought I could be wrong as what I know is from what ive collected over time reading abot technical readouts of skylines. just my .02 mates.

Skylinelee,

Mine has gone bang too , any suggestion where I can find one?

Thanks

 

[skylineboy]

person i spoke to who wont be mentioned said it would cost 6000 to swap the engines over and have all the parts needed and for them to supply the engine.

ouch!
