There is room as Jonpowell posted in his pic. but as far as using the stock fan iy wont work. a elctric fan is needed.

Jonpowell: car is looking good. I only wish I had a shop to finish mine like I would like to but its coming along just slower than I would like.

Its a GReddy for the RB motors oil cooler and relocator, with oil temp and pressure at the filter.

Grumpy: Congrats on your RB swap, I remember you talking about doing the swap quite awhile ago on freshalloy. The swap looks awesome, along with the car.

I am kinda suprised no one with an RB25+ has posted any 1/4 mile times.

Look again. All prices are $AUD. Take the price to money converter to see the actual price.

My RB25DET will be here on Wednesday. The guys that hooked me up there are real cool. They threw in a front end conversion cheap ($615) and graciously left some things off the shipping form to save me a few (hundred) dollars.[^_^] Spread the word

About using the Koyo radiator on an RB25. The RB25 is a 6 cylinder engine and the KA24DE is a 4 cylinder. Shouldn't the radiator be a little bigger for the RB25? Or are you going on the basis that the Koyo is still better than a stock Rb25 radiator even though it's meant for a 4 banger?

well I am currently using the copper (larger) KA radiator in mine and no problems. And it is driven daily in the SoCal traffic(nasty). The reason I asked is because I would like a better setup to better support drift/track days I plan to start going to. The hottest my car has gotten in heavy traffic so far is like 210 let it Idle a bit or start moving faster ab back to its normal running 180. But racing/drift will cause allot more heat.

the koyo is thicker and cools alot better than a stock radiator. the rb20 radiator is just a little thicker than a s14 radiator.and a koyo 240 radiator will bolt in to a s13 or 14 and have the correct ports. so all in all it's a good choice.
