Thanks GenPac
NissanParts.cc is where I ordered all my OEM parts from. All my sites where I get my parts are listed in the first post More Stuff! Cleaning up the Stock Exhaust manifold I tried to do it myself but yeah that wasnt working out to well So I took it to a local machine shop and had them wire brush the ports and runners and throw it in a tumbler And since I dont want it to rust, I got some High Temp paint (VHT) and gonna plaint it aluminum. SOOO CLEANNNNN Primer Coat Just finished Baking the primer coat. Annnnnd Done hopefully it will keep and not chip Swapped out that Piece of Shit XS power manifold for the cleaned up stocker. Sucks to have such a small working space... (Not my House)

Nice build, and thanks for posting your experiences with installing the parts whether good or bad. You've got a great wife to help you out too! I know most of us probably don't have a wives that are even remotely interested in being anywhere near us when we're in the garage! Post some vids when you get it running, and good luck with the rest of the install.

how much did having the machine shop clean our exhaust mani run you?
The only aftermarket exhaust manifold that I've seen, that people run without a ton of modification, is the godspeed one. aftermarket is always better though, right? /sarcasm seriously though, if you're looking for a top mount, I think having it custom made at a fab shop is the only way to go, and thats $$$$ |

Yeah Im done with craptastic exhaust manifolds The only other Manifold for stock turbo location I would buy would be from Scott @ S-Tec in Okinawa, I had planned on getting one from him but I didnt have pay pal at the time but i might buy one in later on. If i was going for high HP i would go custom or somthing, but im not

So two of my injectors pintle caps had a finger broken off so I was gonna pull them out and replace them with my SR's when I saw this
EEEWWWWY Good thing I pulled them out but now so i could send them off to get cleaned Got the Injectors back ^_^Good As New I ended up getting a Fujii-SPL Power Steering Linefor the RB I've seen ppl use the stock PS line but from what ive seen its been a real stretch to make it work sooooo fuck it I got one. Got a deal at Enjuku on the ISIS Short throw shifter I just couldnt pass up and Picked up the new ISIS BOV Flange If ya'll didnt know ISIS BOV flanges can unscrew if you ever wanted to change the BOV with out cutiing and rewelding Kinda a S14 IC install, When I got my Core It didnt come with any hardware and the only S14 install's Ive kinda seen either require some crazy ass/sucking mounting that required drilling into the lower core support or somthing so I set out to find some mounting brackets i could use that didnt require drilling into the lower core support So i set off to build/find some brackets to use without having to drill into the lower core support (to avoid rusting) So i found these brackets at Lowes Cut Off the hook Angle one left and one right Cut off the top part and drill out the little hole enough for a 10mm bolt Bolt them up to the lower core support where to headlight brackets mount to. Then mark and drill out the holes to bolt the IC to. Plus I can also adjust the angle of the IC haha I will probably drill out and replace that little Phillip head screw with a bigger bolt So right now Im that guy that rolls around town with a Interfooler. The day i Installed it it was a bout to rain, so i said fuck it, plus since the car didnt come with a bumper reinforcement i left it on since it helped support the bumper lol So pretty much waiting on the Wiring harness so I can drop in the RB, If I had an Exact date of when the harness would be ready I'd be pullin the KA and and beginning the Install. Also be ordering the Power Steering cooler in a day or two

This build is looking great. Props on everything and hopefully when I do my swap, it will be looking this good. I am also a believer in quality parts so you don't have to replace it again. Alot of people don't understand the reason to spend 2 times the amount of a cheap product on a good product. You usually have to replace your cheap product when it breaks and then buy another cheap product as a replacement, your spending the same amount as you would have on a good part and still have a cheap product.
Def. subscribing and I can't wait to hear this thing |

You sir are a gentleman & a scholar lol love this build & don't mean to thread jack but hopefully you can answer a few questions that will aid me?
As far as the R33 crossmember stiffening up the chassis would the R32 one i have do the same? Can i use the R32 one as well for an RB25 swap? Also if you are using the proper cross member why the need for the aftermarket SYKO engine & tranny mounts & why not go with maybe NISMO replacements since its going to be street driven mostly. Cant wait to hear this thing run GL man. |

To my knowledge you cannot use the the R32 CM with the RB25 due to the mount designs. Russell @ NissanParts.cc can get you a Brand New R33 crossmember for a good price. Quote:

uuhh... I can't see a difference in the cross-members. I think you are right about not being able to use the R32 one, but I've never been able to tell the difference solely from pictures. Can someone please elaborate? (this is all just out of curiosity, as I already have a R33 crossmember)
Oh, and how long did it take to get your Skyo mounts? (did you order from them directly?) any mention of how their customer service has been, and quality of their product? |

Forgot some other stuff,
My Tranny mount was torn when I got it so I ordered a Nismo Mount for a Z32 (IIRC) (you all know what a Nismo mount looks like) as well as replacing the stock Pivot ball with a Nismo Pivot ball So ive been searching for an RB25 dipstick to replace my old cracked one. I've been searching for a while on a US spec one and tried ordering a R34 RB25 one from The Nismo Shop. Turns out its too short. Then said they had one for the R33 RB25, well ordered it and it came in well it was too long. So im tired of searching for this damn part (damn my OCD) So decided to make it work. The Dipstick i used is from a 2000-2006 Sentra, 1.8 QG18DE; P/N 11140-4Z002 The sentra Dipstick has a Roll pin that holds it in so i just knock out the roll pin I ended up cutting the RB DS to (MEASUREING FROM THE "L" MARK) Cut it to 40.3CM and slide it into the Sentra's Handle. Then drill out the hol for the roll pin, Insert and Done. So you should get about 39CM from the bottom of the Yellow Handle to the "L" Mark Full Length should be 42.6CM of the Silver Stick you cut Sure your thinking why not cut the Sentra's stick to length, well the Cross Hatching for the "Safe Zone" is bigger on the Sentra. If all my Measurements are correct, this should get you pretty close to an OEM one (depending on your measurements and cutting you should get around +/- 1 CM for what i got, Which should be fine seeing that you shouldn't be running your oil right on the "L" Mark anyway. But Just in case can one of you RB25 guys measure your DS from the bottom of the orange lip (the lip that touches the top of the tube down to the "L" Mark? Just to make sure haha *Possibly in CM?

Russell is the one that runs NissanParts You must be confused with NismoParts These two shops are on the same server but they are two different shops ran by two different ppl. Just wanna clear that up, since it seems to be a common misunderstanding.

LoL wow, people think they are a good deal because they "look good". Welcome to the RB club and don't throw away that stock RB fan and fan clutch. You can make it fit on the S14's but you have to trim the radiator support and drill new mount holes. I find it keeps the car way cooler than the dual pullers.

MOAR Parts!!!
Got in my New belts and new exhaust mani gasket from Nissanparts.cc that crappy ass XS-Power Manifold tore up my old gasket when i removed it. Straight from Japan Land the new Defi line up "Defi Advance BF" Water Temp Gauge (White Face) So once I finish one of my customers swaps I can send off the Stock turbo and get ported and fitted with new compressor wheels

Cometic sells gaskets for the RB motors cheaper than the nissan units. The exhaust manifold gasket is metal unlike the stock and $27ish.

Works great I used it when I changed manifolds. I also used the lower intake manifold gasket (intake manifold to head) that they sell too. WAY better than the stock paper gasket (RB20). Only thing I didn't use was the head gasket don't trust those I used a Tomei gasket.

Yeah they match the ports perfect no extra work needed. I installed SR20 exhaust manifold studs on my head because the runners on my exhaust manifold. they were just too long and I wouldn't be able to install it.
