Rb20det swap #3 pictures

[crxcess]

I just finished antother rb20det swap and I thought I should share my little bundle of joy with everyone. I actually did this swap for somone else ( 1st paying customer) it took me 14 hours to get it in and running and a couple more hours to finish up all the little stuff ( few things left to do). Oh and the flex-a-lite twin line 10" fans fit like a glove, incase anyone wanted to know.

Thanks for looking,

sam

Looks good Sam. Who's mounts did you use?

[crxcess]

I used the rb20 crossmember. Also stay tuned for swap #4, its going to be my personal car on the east coast... I bought the car, ordered the rb20, and now im just waiting to go over there and get it all together.

After that im thinking gt4.....

what MAF adaptor did you use for the cone filter?

[crxcess]

thats a $23 300zx ebay filter/adapter set.

that is awsome man, i am up to number 6 here are some pics of the last one.

[jayz706]

dump tube looks good too, did you make that?

Wiring harness looks awsome..

[crxcess]

#6 eh? Looks real good! Im guessing that your doing them all for customers? I didnt charge much to do this one (1g labor), but he had me do a second stock for stock swap that paid ok.

Im going to see if I can get a mig welder for Xmas...I want to start fabricating some parts too. 3" dump pipe and turbo spacer w/external waste gate adapter.

nice work crxcess, I'm in the process of doing the swap now into a 91 240sx, I'm using the rb crossmember also and at the point to where the RB20 can be dropped in. Was the wiring difficult? are you able to close the hood? Did you drop the engine in with the transmission attached from the top or bottom?

Thanks,

Mike

we charge about 3000 or so to do everything, engine, fans, clutch, and any other misc things. so 1000 for the labor, 1500 for the front clip, and 500 or so for everything else. The wiring is my pride and joy.

So you made a new turbo/O2 housing correct? I had 8 flanges laser cut to make those for the RB20/25 turbo's. I only have one left. Where you the one who bough one?

The swap looks really good BTW!!!

[ibzbro]

no we had our own laser cut. there are pics on here showing the whole thing, search for my name.

[crxcess]

I put the motors in from the bottom. Its just safer that way (in my opinion).

The wiring is so simple a monkey could do it. Thanks to those people who did all the work the first time and wrote everything down.

Just prey that none of the sensors are bad, they can be a pain to diagnose.

i guess that wiring bit i did for the rb20 has found its way around.cool cool, thats what it was intended for.the sensors arnt too bad to diagnose, but can be a pita when you think its working but it isnt.

[crxcess]

actually i got it from Branden Baune... he is a real nice guy, willing to help with any questions.

Brandon's an alright guy, but dont buy anything from him, he ripped me off for about 150 bones.
