Patient? I hardly think so. When my sx was out for 3 month I was making phone calls to dicktator like every second day. I called the post office call centers a billion times, I was staying up late to chat to online retailer in the US. I hardly call that patience

I hate not having my at my house where it belongs

Gary loves wiring up Dicktators, it will be a quick job man

My words to you last time were " I swear I will NEVER install another dicktator... EVER"

And now I have to eat my words

What needs to be moddified to get the motor in and running.

Engine Mounts
Gearbox Mounts
Bigger Radiator
Electric Fans
Fuel Pump
Propshaft???
Electricals?

What else?

Total cost more or less, if keeping everything standard...

Gary any Input here, cuase you're now almost finished...
We are far from finished and after reading Rezlo's forum the SR20 does seem the cheaper option for this kind of power. But your list is right so far

Engine Mounts
Gearbox Mounts
Bigger Radiator - dont have to but the S13 one is tiny
Electric Fans
Fuel Pump
Propshaft - only if using the rb25 box
Intake Mani - the std one hits the bonnet
misc stuff like hoses etc

We havent started on the wiring side of things but think that will be quiet a job. Will be running a Dicktator

Apparently the R32 GTR radiator is a straight drop in for use with the CA18DET, so I'd assume it would work with the RB.

as one that has run a bearing on a rb motor, i would agree , replace the std oil pump with a N1 high flow oil pump (or better),i got one off rdjapan.com(included shipping) for R1000 cheaper than rezlo's quote and was deliverd to my door with in a week of ordering.better safe than sorry.as for oil starvation rb's can do that if not well maintained. as for clutch a vg30 ( hardbody v6) clutch fits aswell,but like you i had a double diaphram button clutch built at fero brake ,was wonderfull for drags,drift had instant reaction but a nightmare in traffic,hard as hell and needed high revs to move at a crawl .if you gonna use it as a daily driver ,dude dont do it , a single diaphram will be enogh or youwill end up having moorse muscles in yor left leg. but thats just my 5 cents,BUUUUT if yo not gonna drive it every day , a double is soooooo goooddd, on down shift the back locks up even quicker and gets you sideways easiar.........
as for intake were you gettin one from and for how much ill be needing 2 very soon, i dont mind if they are greddy knock offs neither will be for daily drivers....

Cool,not bad at all!

Fitting my RB25DET next week once some parts have arrived, thinking of using the STD Turbo just to go through the motions before I use my Big Turbo.

Your Cambelt is on its way, I'll mail you the Tracking number just now.

shot

i think upgrading the turbo without bigger injectors is not going to yeild much more power.

After all of this has been done and i have sorted some other things out on the car i am going for turbo, injectors and w/m. should be about the 350rwkw mark but this is in looooooong time.
