You could buy an RB25 with a transmission and ECU off of ebay for half of that price. Mickenny Motors sell mounts that mount directly to the KA crossmember. They also sell the down pipes and driveshaft as well. pretty much everything you need to do the swap. They even make you a wiring harness to work with the RB25/trans to workin in the S13. Its a pricey build so better have a handful of cash. probably at least 5 grand to do the swap. RB swaps are pretty common now days so just need to do more research. theres plenty of stuff on it.

uhhhhhh... i wouldnt really trust ebay if they're selling an RB for half the price the OP listed. but everything else you posted is correct. Go with mckinney for mounts and stuff for sure...

I have 3 close friends that are running RB25 swaps.

They all have Syko performance conversion kits including the turbo elbow and a driveshaft from Driveshaftshop.com
Very nice kit. I believe the engine sits lower and further back than the McKinney setup.
As for wiring, all my friends are running Wiring Specialities harnesses, zero issues, very well made.
You'll also need a R33 GTS-T front crossmember and an aftermarket powersteering cooler.
That's just the easy stuff.

Of course you'll need new gaskets and hoses, and all the other maintenance stuff. It's also a good idea to buy a new oil pump and new clutch.
RB swaps are a pain in the butt. You'll probably overheat in traffic on hot days too.

Check out Nissanparts.cc they are super cheap on RB parts, total OEM gasket kit, pumps and all. I am a do righter any swap you get needs to have compression number first, then get it, break it down, gasket it and change out the pumps and clutch and enjoy.
