Got my RB25 today!

Well i can't whipe the smile off my face haha ... what a day. I got the clip from RS Imports if anyone wants to know, they are great guys, same guys Jon Powell got his clip from. I think it took a total of 4 days to get here after they shipped it out which was awesome. I can't remember their website but I'll find it for you guys unless someone else knows it.

Anyways im not in a rush to get this done although i so want to, but i have to take my time because of well money to be honest. But i think that is a good thing because i will be able to take my time and do it right the first time.

I have a lot of plans and i will be documenting as much as i can with pictures and videos so i'll keep you guys updated as best i can.

For now check out the pics Here

Congrats, post your progress if you have a chance. I will most likely be attempting the same swap on my s14 this October. Are you doing the wiring yourself? Good luck.

Nothing beat the satisfaction of doing it yourself. I will also be taking my time on the swap, I'm going to take the whole month of October heheh. "I've heard" that the RB25-->S14 wiring is easy compared to all the other swap, I'm still doing my research on it. I'll share info with you if I come by anything good.

yeah i dont know all the details on it but all i hear is the s13 is much easier than s14... but the s14 has been done, and with the skyline gauge cluster (which i want to use as well) so now someone just needs to post a how-to
