i'm gonna be updating daily as i work on the car... my goal is to get the swap done by next friday... wish me luck guys!

welps... it's taking a little longer than expected... the whole dropping both engine and with only two people (myself and one friend)... others has other things to do or just don't want to help and be a spectator... hopefully tonight i'll have some people over and we can split into two teams... one on the RB and one on the KA... as of now... we're just about to drop the tranny on the KA and then drop the tranny on the RB... will keep updated...

thanks for all the support guys... as of now... i dropped both trannies and now working on the dash of the 240... i'm actually going out of town in an hour so i won't have any real updates until sunday... we're hoping that on sunday night, we'll have the KA out and the RB on the engine hoist... then Monday-Thursday, drop in and connect and attempt to run... for only two people working on the car, we're not doing too bad... it would help if we had more people, but we'll make due...

 

How you plannin on dealin' with smog/cali auto/cali import laws? Curious because I may be headed the same direction within the next year and I live in Cali too.

 

hey projectRB240sx and DETurbine did you get all your stock gauges to work? I am doing the swap in my 1996 se and i am running a Microtech standalone. I was wondering how to wire up my gauges?

 

wow... been awhile since i updated... welps... nows a good time...

i now have the KA outta the 240 and it's sitting in my garage waiting for my friends 240 to come over... as for the RB, it's in the clip about ready to come out... i just have to disconnect a few wires off the harness and hoist away... both trannys are out, obviously, and when the engine comes out, it's time for some deep cleaning... will update as soon as any breakthroughs happen... later!

 

Update time...
i got both trannys out, and now both engines out... now it's time to take the crossmember out of the clip and put into the 240sx... will have pics posted soon...

 

Awesome, keep us updated, be sure to add pics..:thumbsup

 

The pics are here the pics are here...

 

the RB crossmember is now in the 240 and i think we're ready to put the RB in the bay... not sure yet... going to double check everything... i think i still need to make a whole for the speedo cable from the tranny... but we'll find out on thursday...

 

If you are using the R32 cluster and need the cable, then I really suggest you make all holes and necessary mods to the bay before the motor goes in, and same goes for the motor.

 

i got more pics up on imagestation... here's the link... http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4287940549

 

looks like alot of fun there, lots of smiles. is it up and running yet?

congrads by the way

 

update!

We finally got the engine bolted in, BUT!!! yup, big but... we realized that we needed a new oil pan... the one on it is dented... sucks for me... so we gotta find an oil pan somewhere... also need to find a cheap clutch somewhere... but no we have to order and wait...

 

well, luckily its only a small problem, try www.clutchcity.com for cheap exedy clutch. And I think Mckinnymotorsports.com has oil pans for the rb25. Good luck man! Keep us POSTED!
