R32 RB26 block vs R33 RB25 block (Mounting issue)

[Imissmyturbo]

I was wondering if the R33 mounts will bolt up to the R32 motor. I am talking about the brackets that go onto the motor itself. I know the mounts are different. Just wondering if the those brakets can be swaped.

my guess is yes. take some measurements to find out. i can give you the measurements (bolt distances center to center) on the 26 tonight if you want.

Just bolt the brackets and mounts onto the block. I put an R33 engine in my R32 last year, it was no big deal. For the most part they are the same thing.

Thats what it looks like......From what I can tell the brakets that go into the block are different on the RB26 then the RB25. It looks as if they are made to clear the front Turbo and Diff on the RB26. Since I am going to run a Single turbo and no AWD the RB25 brakets should work.

RB26 brackets are different (in fact any 4wd is diff to 2wd) 2wd brackets will work fine on RB26.
