I picked up a s14, and big surprise I'm doing a rb26det. I found a lot of good deals on the engine, but finding a tranny is a bit tough. Is there a good alternative for the rb25 tranny?

There are plenty of adapters that mate to the RB and some that don't require it. What are you plans for the car? Daily? Drifting? Road race? Drag? Do you want a manual or an automatic?

Like stated above, many options avaiable...rb25 trans can be found, cd009, z32.....

Definitely a manual.
It won't be my daily, but I do want to be able to drive it around the city, or to work every so often. I also wouldn't mind taking it out to a track just to push it and have fun.

So not a daily but something that's reliable to do so if needed but also track duty? Depending on your power goals and budget, Z32/Z33 transmissions would probably be the best move.

Can anyone say from personal experience if rb25 functions and feel well with a 6 speed if the z33 route was taken?

Everything with the Z33 transmission feels good - especially when mated to the SERIAL9 shifter. Just make sure your rear end gearing is complimenting the gearing on the Z33 transmission.

How's the z33 fit underneath the car? Should I expect some heavy modifications in that department?

Is this really deserving of its own thread? We have a stupid questions thread for those that have to be spoon fed information. Quick search on the interwebs provides a plethora of information regarding RB’s and transmission swaps along with maintenance items that should be taken care of.

@jr_ss
I was just asking some questions, and getting some personal opinions (hopefully from people who have done the swap). I didn't know a some simple questions would piss off a know it all cock face like yourself. But yeah, I forget that how all car communities are; filled with ass hat jerk offs like yourself solely on these forums to to talk shit act like they know everything, so they can feel like the bigger man. Take a break from talking shit online dude, I'm sure your boyfriend is missing you in the bedroom.
Thank you all with who were chill let of their insight, I really appreciate it!

The problem here isn?t me, it?s you. I know, it is not your fault, mommy and daddy handed everything to you, told you everything you?ve done in life is great and you were awarded a participation trophy so you didn?t cry yourself to sleep at night. Get over yourself and the idea you?re entitled to anything but breathing on this planet.
The best course of action here, is to educate yourself. Put in the time and effort and read a fucking article or two on this topic. I mean we have a tech section and a search feature... This is not new territory, you are not doing anything ground breaking here.
Carry on you little cunt...

Carry on you little cunt...Hahaha, dude your assumptions are killing me. Also, please don't get mad. I know my early message probably sound like I was irritated, but in all I'm just having fun. I won't bore you with a backstory, but simply say I was a white kid who lived in the ghetto. I haven't had jackshit my whole life, and the things I do have, I got them myself, with my own money. I don't know what mommy and daddy shit is. I've read plenty, but I just wanted to hear some more opinions from people. I know I'm not redesigning the wheel. Also excuse me, I don't know how these forums work, this is really my first time on one.

It?s something to do with IOS and VBullentin. If you use the generated text with apostrophes it does it.

:blah: Listen man, I wasn?t being a prick either, but disrespecting someone isn?t the best way to go about acquiring information or help. In fact, I?d say they?d be less inclined.
General chat is abused a lot, tech questions should be posted in that specific section. There are multiple threads and vendors that sell exactly what you are looking for.

An rb26 into an S14A is an awesome project, and a big thing for the OP, I?d like to learn stuff, maybe help where I can, sure it?s all been done before by the OG, But hey such negative posting by others is pretty tarded, I?ve been subject to the same by others, and it made me feel rather crap about my project.
Carry on.

This thread is ass. I feel like we've all been as helped as we can be at this point. If you don't know how to search CD009 to RB adapter, you have a bigger issue.
Now, if $1500 or whatever the RB transmissions is too much for you to swallow, buying a different transmission and adapter plates is irrelevant because the initial purchase will be more money. It sounds like you're not trying to spend more but cheap out for some piece of shit transmission so I will stop suggesting/wasting my time.
Best of luck. Hopefully you end up proving us all wrong. And your comeback was fucking stupid.
