rb25 into r32?

[casper]

alrite lads,does anyone know if an rb25 fits an r32? is there much hassle gettting it in? what parts are needed etc. is it a better option than tuning an rb20? any info appreciated

fits like a glove! you need to use the rb20 engine mounts, and the gearbox mount depends on what gearbox your using, keeping the rb20 box is easiest!

Rb 25 is a far better engine and an easy conversion into a r32.....! Same engine mounts ya might have to change the wiring loom but iv heard of lads modifing the 20 loom to run the 25.......! Pretty simple with big bower advantages......!

Rb20 box is like a choclate teapot......! Run the 25 box far far stronger.......!

Yea i agree mate, just that when i put the 25 box into mine, i had to modify the box mount. Also lost the spedo, which is a balls in a road car! I dont know if anyone else got away with it easier?

The dog came in and ran off with it Na lad the 32 was cable driven spedo and the 25 box was electric sender. Is there a way around this?

Its a straight fit, use a series 1 RB25 as most of its electronics are the same as an RB20.

Using the RB25 box is a good idea too, it bolts straight on but you need an RB25 slave cylinder. You need to rewire the reverse light switch and you need to use a D22 Navara speedo sensor to mate the RB25 box with the RB20 speedp cable.
You also need to modify the prob shaft..

good stuff lads,was offered r32 for near nothing with no engine so was thinking of doing the conversion if it was worth it,.....how does an r33 compare to an r32 for drifting? sorry for off topic
