Has anyone here done this converion? I started, then ran into some problems with a badly repaired front end on the S14. First have to straighten the car before I can continue.
If anyone is interested, I can post pics, as I go along.[/img]

that must be the S14 with the single wheel spacer on the front driver side. that wheel spacer was about 20-25mm, yet the wheels looked like they were in the right place.

EISH 😮 😮 😮

hope its not too bad a repair and that it can be sorted out.

good luck with the sx and the motor dude.

its gonna be a new conversion to this forum so please add lots of pics and explanations as you go along.

shot!!!!

Yes, thats right. Spacer on the right front wheel. I bought the car without seeing it. A friend in jhb looked at it. Imagine my supprise when I took the wheel off. The whole front end was about 20 mm to one side. Had that sorted out. Getting the car resprayed. Should have it back in a week.

funny that...

now all the pieces have fallen into place.

i was wondering how that motor found its way to the western cape.

a mate of mine also looked at the car, but he didnt want to take it cos of that spacer - it looked dodge! but if its sorted then there is no problem?

Another tip I got from the internet and other forums, is to install the front pulley and power steering pump from RB20/RB25, as this gives more clearance on the front than the bigger RB26 items. Front pulley will get machined to fit 60-2 disc for ignition.

I will be using a T-BO management system. Found it works realy well on my RB25DET.

RRiekertadmin31 Jul 2008, 09:34

this looks very cool man! very cool!

T-BO engine management system. Lots of features, incl dual maps. Been using it on my Skyline RB25DET and works realy well. I know that a couple of RB26DETT GTR's have been using it.
