rd28-rb20det

Hey,

I was just wondering if anyone here has converted c33 laurel with the disel rd28 to an rb20det engine? I bassically want to start drifting but don't know enough to carry a conversion such as this through myself, and was just wondering where i could get assistance and parts required for this.

Re: rd28-rb20det

Cool Re: rd28-rb20det

hey there i'm looking to perform the same conversion myself, wondering if I can still use the diesel ECU, as most nissan ECUs are quite interchangable, for instance a guy i know used a CA18de ECU from a GXi R32 Skyline with a RB20det. If not viable, I could use the RB20det ecu, but then will any of the loom need to be changed? The issues are never ending lol! My laurel will not see a lot of track work though, just being built as a tough streeter, so no reason to buy an aftermarket unit.
