hey guys i am chukin a rb25det in my vl turbo coz my other engine is fakd now how much woud it be for someone to change over the engine like bolt out bolt in!!! i got quoted 700 and i think thats abit to much!

go to www.gweeds.net (http://www.gweeds.net) and have a look at how much works involved.. you *may* change your mind.. But keep shopping around for now.. See if they'll beat 700

Sounds preety good that price to me, for a workshop atleast. It takes longer than you think to get all the little fidly **** right, and they do charge by the hour. Atleast if you pay them they will have to worry about the problems that will come up during the conversion, there is always something....

well i saved my self the money i did the conversion my self i took the rb30 out unbolted the gearbox bolt back in rb25 now i need the custom exhaust and custom inlet then im gona bolt back in !

hey guys i am having trouble with engine mounts!!! the rb30 engine mounts right hand side doesnt fit do i use the stock rb25 engine mounts!

You must be doing something a little bit wrong. Apparently the RB25 bolts straight up to the factory engine mounts. According to guidos anyway... http://www.gweeds.net/carpage2/6.html Mick

there is 2 sets of holes. you must be in the wrong ones

found it i bolted it in now i dunno what else to do so im gona let a mechanic do the rest like tail shaft and **** and all the gear box connections

how much is a normal cost for a plenum chamber to be made up to suit rb25 runners

they arent cheap dude.like 1k plus

na man it shoud be cheaper i got quoted 700 but i am geting it cheaper all u need is a aluminiam welder u can get away for less then 400 but u need a metal fabricater anyways anyone know whats the best ecu to suit rb25!!

why ask if you know? "all u need is a aluminiam welder" do you know how much a tig welder costs?

Yeah just knock up a plenum out of scrap aluminium, all you need is an aluminium welder, don't flow test it or nuthin! lol

I imagine the safer option is to run the factory plenum. Its had plenty of R & D thrown at it. If you put together any old hack job of a plenum, you are going to have lean cylinders and all sorts of problems. That would be my approach, each to their own though. Ive seen Greedy RB25 plenums go for around $1k s/hand, and they look horn! Mick

i was gonna use one of those tool boxes you can buy. just weld it to my runners and bolt a throttle on the front!

hahahaha toolbox man would that actully work?? if so i wouldnt mind trying that at least ill have somewhere 2 leave my tools when im working on the VL lol hahaha. sounds good though got the picture in my head.
