Hi im not new to the forums ive been reading post about rb's and swaps for about 2 months now how ever this is my first post (dont flame me to bad if i sound like a fool).

Ive recently decided to go for a 1971-73 datsun 240z and drop in and RB25det. But do to a complete lack of car knowledge other then go fast and look pretty Ive found my self at a sort of a dead end.

The car Ive found is in good shape other then some general wear and tear from time ( origanal paint etc good price 2500 =D). So ive found myself searching for where to get an engine. Recently Ive decided to go with a front clip r33 manual rwd trans( do to the fact of I dont know much and I want the car running asap w/o having to spend months searching for parts here and there). I think ive found a good one but i need some advice.

Just general DONT BUY IT IF..... and wether anyone has dealed with this place or not ive grown to trust the opinion of the forum in general (seems like there is more then enough people here to keep dumb ***'s from blurting **** out and pretending to know something they dont).

Here it ishttp://www.jrautoparts.com/clip_nissan_RB25.htm

What else would I need? the mechanic I have will do the work but wont search around for parts IE I want a complete asembly so he can just do it. The mechanic fabs his own mounts so no need for that but what else will i need to get it on the road? And what do you guys think of the dealer for the front clip any advice? I will be going to the dealers before I buy the clip so I can check it out in person.

ANY good advice will be helpful thanks for the time =D

http://www.hybridz.org would be a very valueable site for you if you have not been there yet. check out the RB forum

I dunno about that joint, but I dont keep ontop of these things.
