Looking at other threads just made me wonder how many of us here in Cali have these swaps.

Even if you're just working on it, or at least have an RB in the garage.

Please post, even if some of you are just lookie loos.

Since you're in No. Cal, you don't count until you can drive it down here.

Just kidding. Is that the only thing you're waiting on?

Mines chilling in the garage and runs .. kinda! small issues like cooling, running rich, nothing major though it seems. Unfortunately I was forced to put it on non op status for about a month or two till i can catch up on a few things! You know how hard that is?!?! ugh I need to hurry up to because i might get cought sleeping and get my *** handed to me by yellow4g63 and his 20! lol

I'm waiting on my R34 R25DET wires... the ones from South San Francisco... are they done yet? Also I need teh mount kit, driveshaft, and downpipe... If there done and not shipped yet, is there any way I can get next day shipping... i really dont care how much it costs right now, i just want them soon.. hehe, reason is cuz i'm starting school tomorrow and i'm car-less :(

edit: last time I checked, I was told you guys were stuck on 3 wires from the main harness and waiting on wire diagrams from nissan

edit: Also they came from a shop called Acutech Autos if that helps

Bobalicious- It's a smoothie shop with boba balls in it. It will fill you up. It's right off of mira mesa in the target shopping center.

Oh well.

CRXCESS, as far as I know I believe they only had RB25's there. Phase 2's link is on this site, just contact them and see what they say. Xjon, we already talked so you know I got your mail! I'll call you.

Also there is a good Boba place called BOBA SMOOTHIE off Harbor and Baker (off 405 and Harbor). It's right accross from the Kinokuniya Japanese book store I buy all my Option mags and Hiper Rev books! Nothing like an OptionII and a Boba Smoothie right?

Hey not that I live in so cal but I will be down in the orange county area on like sept 12 or 13. I am from spokane wa. There are a couple of sr swaps up here but none of the rb series motors. i am planning on dropping a 20 into my car as soon as I can find a RELIABLE source in seattle for the motor. anyway I was wondering if I can take a look at a couple of your cars while I am down there. Hopefully someone who used a mount kit versus stock mounts and such do some comparing see what I want to do. I am also concerned about wiring issues. anyway my car is ready for the new motor,just need to find one. anyway hit my email if I can check out your car[email protected]AJ

Let me know when you want to roll. Those drinks are addicting. Plus I'll show you the top secret place to get the Japanese mags. I probably shouldn't tho because then you are going to jack them all before I get there every month! LOL.
