I *finally* got my RB25 running! It is not fully drivable, (need a few things, mainly a fan, and a driveshaft ) But I finally got to hear my baby fire! Soon, I shall be terrorizing the streets!

Mad props to Carl H ! Yoda Mann!

I'll try and get some videos up soon when I find a friend with a DV cam. I was unable to take an initial startup video (for obvious reasons), but now I can make one for after I have everything hooked up / maiden voyage.

no driveshaft? umm be sure to get some fluid in the transmission asap before letting it run... No fluids around a spinning shaft=HOT and possible damage...

Shocker,

Of course man! I obviously cant put transmission fluid in yet since I do not have a shaft fabricated yet. But, of course, after the shaft is installed, MT90 will be installed.

I already congratulated you by phone, but I figured that I'd do it on here too for the record. I can't wait to see a startup/maiden voyage video.

s13 with a stock refreshed rb20. All i got left to do is order main and rod bearings then thats back in one piece. Then i have a s14 with a rb26 ive been building for 3 long years lol. But its built for a good 1000hp but 800 crank is my goal. I just have to build the head on my 26 then im done with that too. Im not rich so everything takes time. I ride dirtbike and have 2 jetskis too so im always buisy. Work takes most my time away though. All i have to say is im glad i dont have any kids. Or i would have nothing.PS darius can i join the NRRBA By the way im going ill be a long time member. lol

When I refered to the shaft I was talking about the trannys, not the DS, just looking out for you and your transmission.
