Agree with Rat 100%,This is not a convertion that you do half ass :oops: ,OR dont have a plan for :( If you do it do it right and stick to your original goals unless you prepared to spend the money ,I started off wanting a 'stock' motor ,Ended up upgrading ALL the bolt-ons for power :roll: Now im going built motor :oops:

Stock power is +-180wkw with the T28,Its not bad but be careful,The RB bug is killer,It will bite you for more power :lol:

Good luck,I sent my mail addy to you if you need anything,I forgot about a Hookup on the 3 Oct at RB25SX place,You must join as there will be some good info shared

Anyone know if the rb25 crossmember fits a s13...I am almost sure it does and is part of the rb conversion.

Going from the RB20 to RB25 is very easy as all the mounts are the same so buying the motor will be the only expence,Still very cheap as most of the expensive things are done 8)
