RB30 - Any experiences?

[AgaricX]

Well, my 94 convertible is sitting engineless and transmissionless.

Through sheer luck and someone else's stupidity, I have come to own a complete RB30E from a good ol' VL Commodore. It's in great shape and I'd love to drop it in the S13.

As of now, the engine and car are separated by about 400 miles. Before I tow my car down here to start a-swappin', I thought I'd get all the info from the board that I could.

Has anyone had experiences with this swap?

Just to let you know, yes, I will be putting the head/cam setup from a RB25DET (R33) on it to take full advantage of VCT and the twin cams. I know that its not a super-direct bolton, but it's not that complex.

I've got about 4 different walkthroughs for the rebuild (pretty cake), but none on the swap. I know it's common for skylines, as the mounts should be virtually identical. How about our beauties?

Who would be the best supplier for mounts and wiring? I hate fab'ing.

Any transmission suggestions? Nothings unattainable, I'm looking for ease of install rather than cheapest.
