Well not sure if many of you know but i put a rb25det in my vert. Now the motor has been in for a while but hasn't been running right since i put it in. I can say no that the car is running the way it should be and i am very happy with how the swap came out and the power i'm getting. It's been a long road and im no where near done but i just felt that i have been negleting you guys so have fun with the pics and let me know what you think..

when i bought the motor i thought it would be a good idea to give it a really good over haul so i got a oem gasket kit , oil pump and water pump.Environmental splices FTMFW

Since the moor was so big the fuse box's in the engine bay had to go...Wire Tuck...

Stiped stock motor mount bolt FTMFL and crappy TOPHAT isolators

I love power Between my legs

Finally some fun in the Sun

man, if you could give a few pointers on how you accomplished that tuck it would be awesome.

I REALLY want to tuck mine, but I'm afraid to even attempt it.

STEP 1.) stop being a ***** and get motivated.

STEP 2.) grab the dykes, wire strippers, and soldering gun.

STEP 3.) become overwhelmed by the daunting project at hand.

STEP 4.) put your tools away and have a beer.

STEP 5.) wait for motivation to kick you in the nuts again sometime later.

that's about how i feel about doing a wire tuck right now.

I wish i would have taken better pictures to do a write up, but it's really not hard at all.

1. cut out all the things you dont need/want (for me it was the auto/curise control stuff)2. cut the wires and put the fuse boxes next to each other. ( if you have a silvia front you really dont need most of the relay boxes)3. Tape it all up and put it back into the car.4. what you brought into the car needs to go back out like headlight plugs etc. just get some wire and extend them back out.

P.S. download the FSM it will help you in knowing what plugs are what

It's not really that hard you just have to get off you A$$ and do it.
