has anyone had an RB installed by them?or does anyone know if their installation comes with the custom A/C lines like their SR20 packages?

thanks

Yeah, I had mine installed there. A/C supposedly comes with the package, although I opted out of that because they said that the A/C compressor would interfere with my Koyo...plus I don't give a damn about A/C.

did you get the RB20 or the RB25?also how was the overall finish? does everything work, reverse lights, interior lights, etc etc....I have seen their SR20 work and its great, but I called them a few months ago about getting an RB20 Installed and taylor said that he wont do it, and he doesnt reccomend doing it becase the RB series engines just dont fit....obviously this is not the case, so i was just wondering about their quality of work on the RB's.

Hey there, we do install Rb's. we could make a/c work. Give us a call to discuss. Rb25 is a better imo than rb20, mostly due to age. However when doing an Rb I would recommend doing at least a turbo upgrade, because out of the gate stock hp is not very impressive. Throw a turbo on that motor really brings it to life.

thanks

Yeah, it's an RB25. Overall, it runs very well...the wiring is kind of a mess, but it hasn't presented any problems yet. I'm about to do a turbo upgrade, and hopefully make some respectable numbers. I would recommend XAT if you're going to have someone do the install for you.

i would attempt the install myself but I have no time to do it and would rather have someone do the wiring.... I have never done wiring before.Replacing stock motors... yeah.never really got into the harness at all. I also know my limits...and what I am afraid to touch

I have never done wiring either until my RB. It's pretty easy. Don't be scared to do it. It takes the parts+two to three days=your done.
