Okay guys, I got a complete wrecked R32 GTS-T that I got for very cheap. I got a RB25 on an engine stand and The R32 came with an RB20. I'm planning on putting the RB25 into the 90' 240SX I have. What of any stuff can I use out of the whole car, can be used in the 240? I will be using the R32 front crossmember to mount it in the engine bay but, what do I use for the engine harness? will the R32 transmission mount work? will the R32 gauge cluster work? Will an R32 rear diff mount and driveline work in the 240sx? Need a lil help guys, I'm pretty fresh at this stuff. Unfortunatly I use to be a Honda guy. Damn...Help! Thanks.

im sure you could search and find most of this info.the diffs are the same IIRC. i know you can use the RB20+r32 crossmembers and it will all bolt into a 240 properly, somehow i think the rb25 won't, or if it will, it won't be positioned properly.check the wiring guide sections for info on wiring the harness. i'd just pay someone to do it personally
