Im searcing as im on here, but joined to make this thread. Im not new to the 240 game...so this is kind of an introduction as well.so hi, im ian! Had a hatch for five years, just built it clean, stayed na. Had a 96, boosted KA, 330 to the ground, stock internal everything, and lasted just fine...was a blast, until I got hit by a civic while sitting at a red light. all building/installs/tuning done myself.

The question: Could anybody point me towards a thread im sure already exists about what parts can be used in the nissan family on an RB26 w/ a 25 trans, in an s14 chassis. Like I said, im going back to looking but need some answers...which sucks. I am possibly picking up this car, but need to find some answers first.

Concerned about: Clutch, oil filter, and those are really my two biggest concerns. Im finding a lot of info...but I cant seem to find anything concrete. 350 this, 300 that, ka this...and so on. Any help is appreciated, even if its along the lines of 'hey idiot, its right here, look'

ok...back. My question is more on replacing parts. The link you listed has whats needed to swap one into the chassis. Im asking what parts can be used to replace specific parts. Again, specifically the clutch and the oil filter. The car already has a running, clean swap done. Im just concerned with basic maintenance, and what parts are needed to replace them. I can find 'rb26' clutches. But is there a difference in the thickness of an rb26 clutch, being mated to a 26 transmission, as apposed to a 25 transmission? (again...still looking through the link, in case i missed the answers to the exact questions im asking)
