VT RB25DET swap for sale/part out - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Landcruisin60 · 07-07-2012, 04:53 PM

Hey, I bought an RB25 swapped S14, when I bought it was running, but not very well. I started pulling things apart and came to the conclusion the engine needed to be torn down. So I pulled it apart, turns out as far as I can tell the engine is toast. The crank wore against the main caps (thrust issue). The cylinders have some wear, as do what I was told were aftermarket forged pistons. There's also some wear on some of the cam bearings. I decided rather than try and find another RB and then build it I'd rather just swap in an LSx and be done.

Basically what you're getting:
RB25DET stripped down to a bare block
-The internals may or may not be usable, my uneducated assumption is they cant be used.
-Does have ARP head studs!
Intake manifold, TB etc
Exhaust manifold with turbo. (The entire exhaust may be for sale too) Turbo SOLD
Turbo inlet, MAF and filter
RB25DET transmission
Stock flywheel
ACT springless 6 puck clutch. (Pretty worn, there's still life left in it, how much? Not sure)
FMIC with piping (ebay brand core)
What I believe to be Mckinney mounts and 1 piece steel DS Mounts SOLD
Wiring harness and ecu (not sure who did the harness, but it has some extra/random wires)
All the fasteners are bagged and tagged

Probably some other things I'm not thinking of. Basically selling everything related to the RB swap.

Like I said, it was running when I got it but not well. I was told it was running and driving at one point. From what I could tell the transmission functions fine, but I only drove it onto a trailer, then off a trailer and into the garage. So I dont really know.

I'm looking to get $2000 obo for everything listed. Willing to ship, but buyer pays for it. Everything is sold as-is. I also have a set of F&R z32 brakes I'm thinking of selling.

Here are some pictures...

Various pictures of the internals...

Seen your post else where also, that poor lack of oil ha. Hard to tell by pics but looks pretty bad

I'd be interested in the harness, ECM and mounts. Id like to see the harness fabrication (or lack) and know more about the condition. Know the model # off ECM.

Are the motor mounts blue, black or?

hungryjoseph · 07-07-2012, 09:19 PM

Do you have the knock sensor harness? If so i'll buy it. Email me with your price and paypal. I'm in the DC metro area. [email protected]

I'll get you some pictures of the harness tomorrow. I'm a hardcore noob with this RB stuff, but there were some extra plugs, and a few wires not connected to anything.

The mounts are blue, they have some rust and missing powdercoat. Could use a quick cleaning and some fresh paint.

BUMP!

RB240Coupe · 07-08-2012, 07:04 AM

interested in turbo if still up for grabs?
shipped to 24277??

Landcruisin60 · 07-08-2012, 10:28 AM

Still have the turbo, it has some in and out play, but barely any side to side. I'd do $90 shipped for it. Do you want the water and oil lines also? It doesnt come with the o2 housing, thats pending locally.

If my prices seem off or anything let me know. Before I bought this car last week I had no knowledge or RB's and very little knowledge of Nissans.

Here's a picture of the turbo..

moonshinekouki · 07-08-2012, 11:24 AM

The plugs are broken and were held on by zip ties. Sorry.

Here are some pictures of the mounts and DS. Both have surface rust, but the structural integrity hasnt been compromised. The u-joints move smoothly and dont have any play.

Looking for $225+ shipping for the mounts and $200+ shipping for the DS

Willing to sell the trans to engine braces

I'll have to check that, it had some sort of breather set up on the valve covers.
