magicAyrtonforever first of all stupid nick name, second 240sx is cheap but is a king car and is perfec to all: drift, drag, street everything!!!! and many more fans than for Z's
@MrKawolsky Careful careful... Given, 240's are nice, but Z cars are legends. From Datsun to modern, they carry the badge of the Z legacy. I'm quite sure there are just as many fans for each, but I myself do prefer the S13 (check mine out! hehe). But I've seen plenty of 240Z's and 280Z's with RB series motors in them. Just as good with a classic look too! haha :P

1st run and you already need a new clutch way to go newbie you drove ur car like a bitch and now that you finished it you get to drop the tranny again and put a new clutch in there cuz that was a clutch burn not a burn out.
LOL, you have no Idea what you're talking about. He's worked on more cars than you can ever dream of. Instead of being a little bitch, why don't you read some of the builds he has done on some of the Nissan forums. Asshole.
lmao damm this dude doesnt think a rb25 with fit in a 240...you know nothing. and i dont think his clutch was slipping..he was just spinning tires..there fore no grip.
That's where you're wrong. an RB25 WILL fit in a 240. i've seen it done by a friend of mine. Granted it's not the easiest, but it's been done. same as people say an RB26DETT won't fit in a 240, i've also seen that done.
yeah its a really big pain in the ass. but its actually really possible. you can even buy a dvd that will tell you how to swap a rb25 into a 240. but i mean your the fucking smart one here koolkid
Hell, they've got DVD's for jut about everything. RB26's, CA18's, SR20's. all that shit. Someone tried to tell me that every 240SX came stock with a KA24DE. 89 and 90 Came with a KA24(E). we got into an arguement about how much of a noob he was and then he just dissapeared lol. I fuck'n hate people who don't know an engine from their left shoe. people need to study before they comment. Thanks for the backup on this situation.
i have a s14 rb25det. You sir are an idiot and its hard? HAHA its a custom driveshaft mounts and little tid bits wireing and other stuff that you need to also do with an sr20. So its not hard.
wow alot of people arguing with the rb and vq swap. i think it all depends on the persons perspective and BUDGET.. lol.. that's why i went vq35de. motor was only $350. hey mark i need your help with a u1001 code am getting.. and is the 04 flywheel the same as the 06 flywheel?
This car was finaly finished about 8 months ago. It recieved a 2.5" exhaust and a decent muffler to keep the noise down. My white 240 coupe (high compression motor) is doing great, with a video comming soon. I'll make sure to open the hood for those who wont read captions. Oh, and RB's....150 lbs more, 1/2JZ's, equally heavy. Plus, VQ parts are cheap!
You speak as though the RB is inferior to the VQ35 lol. Sure, the RB is heavier, but can also support way more power than the VQ35. The VQ35 is a good N/A build to have fun with, exactly what you're doing with it. The RB-series engines are remarkable force-fed engines, though parts are expensive. The RB engine has an insane amount of racing history under its belt. You can't knock either engine for what it is. Anyhow, nice work, sounds pretty mean.
wow...you're kidding right? The reason why they couldn't put an RB in the new Skyline is because a) The engine bay was not designed to house a straight-6, b) The weight ratio of the front/rear would have been thrown off because of the design of the car with a straight 6 and the new GTR was supposed to be a new concept with a fresh start. Notice how the GTR's engine IS NOT a VQ either lol, it's a VR38DETT. You cant back your comment with any valid info. Do some reasearch pl0x...
well said. RB series were brilliant, period. Notice VS's land speed record was in an RB TWENTY. That's right, a friggin GT-ST. I'm not knockin' anybody's choice, I love the creativity in VQ and VK swaps, but you're an idiot if you think RB's are obsolete. It all depends on what you want and why. This guy's VQ swap is wonderfully done. Let's focus on that, and keep in mind that RB series started it all (lol hahaha)
sounds like he needs an exhaust, and if your a nissan nut, you can tell what motor they have just by listening to it. Sr's, RB's, CA's, VQ's, VG's all have a unique tone.
dude magicAyrtonforever your a fucking dlido man you dont know anything..theres not really any charecteristics for a light weight car and a motor..maybe a heavier car requires more tourqe but smaller cars dont require less tourqe or horse power..and im betting this 240sx/Z could beat your 350z that you supposovly "have" right
w/e your garbage
awsome car man, im just a little pissed at that dudes comments.
Sorry to everyone else reading this. Some people cant build a car, so they have to buy one. For those of us who build them, nothing can describe the feeling. Oh, and its nice not having a car payment either! :) Those who can do, will do, those who cant, watch from the stands.
I must have really upset you. Guess your still not over the sticker shock of buying a heavier, slower car. And before you rant about that, there are two 350Zs in our family, plus my 240SX with a Z motor.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Don't use superior engines in inferior cars.. My Z is a Z.. Oh wait, let me see, why don't I put a w12 in my Z! Coz I won't be able to stop or survive a crash that's why!
I also have to add that an engine is an engine. No matter what car its in. Are you saying that the Hot Rodders out there were wrong from dropping big blocks into 2800 lb shoe boxes in the 60's? What about a Bucket? Do you work with cars at all?
I appreciate all comments, but I have to admit, Im confused by what was meant on the last one. You say "Z engine's standard characterstics don't suit a light car....". I have to ask, what "standard characteristics" are you refering to?
By your choice of words, I can only guess your younger than 20, or that you have some deficiency keeping you from a level of intelect that would allow you to convey a thaught in a more understandable way. I always donate to charities. If you tell me which one you belong to, I'll make sure the help you need gets to you.
North Carolina. Emissions in this state are for vehicles 96 and newer (OBDII only). Safety for everything else. This car only needs catalysts on the exhaust and a char canister. They have to APPEAR to function for it to pass a safety inspection. Thats pretty much it.
Stock 04 (late 04 with AF sensors) ECM, BCM and harnesses. As far as I know, this is the only swap in exsistance utilizing the stock ECM intergrated into the origional vehicles wiring harnesses.
