You sir need to search. There are a few build threads around here and on the interwebs that document this process. Please dont be lazy and expect us to do the leg work for ya.

If you need to ask a question like that your probably not ready to do a swap...

The swap has been done 100000000x times im sure someone has a how to/ write up on how to do it...

i did an rb25, you need the cross member and skyline motor mounts, bang out the area for the bell tower so the tran fits, it will be tight but it will go in.

youll allso need to buy an RB25 transmission.
i believe the motor/transmission mounts and driveshaft can be bought from McKinney moptorsports.
your looking at a fairly expensive swap.

dont dismiss the idea of just staying with the KA and putting a turbo on it. its a good motor.
