Does anyone know if the RB25DET motor fits onto the R32/RB20 front crossmember? I got the full swap minus this. I got a handle on a R32/RB20 crossmember right now but, need to know if this will fit on. Anyone know? Thanks.

Use your stock crossmember from the s13 then you have a couple options.

a) mckinney motorsports sells a mount kit, pretty prices, also with the drive shaft and down pipe. Sometimes with these kits, you dont have to dent in the fire wall for the starter bellhousing. Some times you do

b) tophat also sells a kit, Which i believe is cheaper, and its cheaper. I have it, I actually like part of it, the fact you do have really get in there and make it fit with a sledgehammer. Pull your heater core first. trust me, just do it. But there actually rubber mounts are not very stiff. And there transmission mount is garbage. Make your own, and then use a energy suspension chevy 350 transmission mount. Works pretty good for balancing out the flimsy rubber mounts.

with that, you just make a down pipe. =)

and I believe the others use the r33 cross member.
