Heres a comparison from the UK point of view between the CA18 and RB25.

The RB is more or less a straight fit if you use the skyline crossmember, slight mods are needed for the gearbox cross member. Its the loom wiring which is a b1tch.When he gets round to chucking on a bigger and stronger turbo (getting rid of the crappy ceramic blades) and increases the boost he should be looking at a nice easy 350+bhp, where I'm looking at a total engine rebuild to squeeze much more out of mine (safely).
