From what ive seen on your garage this should be insane,Where the pics ????
Trust me I am trying to get some pics from my friends who were meant to go there over the weekend but it didn't happen...
I am really keen in seeing the car too...
Finally figured out the full grocery list for the RB25DET conversion which is excellent and now I am looking for a VASELINE sponsor!!!!
Worth the money still I think!!!
Thanks RB25SX for the pointers!!
I think we should creat a 'how to' about this topic as it seems to be coming up often 8) ,
If S14 Puppy can post his parts needed we can start this,Hopefully all the guys who have done the convertion themselves like Gary and RB25SX can help with pics and advise 😉
What you guys think ?
If there is enough interest, I can build RB engine mounts with all with everything needed to fit it into SX, but it will take some time to have it laser cut and weld together, then cost per mounting set could be about R1500. That would be straight bolt on then. Need a few people to make it worth while. Busy building new mounting plates for RB30 now.
Hey guys,
Ok, this is my grocery list for the conversion and hopefully I got it right this time.
Hopefully I wont be needing everything as the car has still a few thiings that can be used in my eyes but I hope that you guys can point out there areas where I might be out....
RB25DET engine
RB25DET gear box (fatboy)
ECU Harness
flywheel
Clutch
R33 cross member & mounts
water pump
oil pump
thermostat
radiator
fuel pump
fuel filter
spark plugs
electric fans
custom throttle cable bracket
management system (TBO or MOTEC)
fuel pressure regulator
GT3096 or T66 ball bearing turbo
boost control
down pipe
turbo exhaust manifold
drive shaft modification ???
removal of aircon
prop shaft mod (bigger yoke to be fitted & shaft shortened by 20mm)
intake manifold
Did I miss out anything??
External wastegate, dumpvalve(can use std RB25), If u go with big turbo and new intake, u can just aswell upgrade injectors. 550-750cc, new intercoole piping.
If u dont have R33 crossmember, they are not easy to find. easy to build mountings on std crossmember.
Then lots of labour and time.
Thanks RB25SX as I forgot about the external wastegate and dumpvalve. Could I still use my GReddy Type R dumpvalve?
I am interested in the mountings that you can build but I know the price all depends on how many orders you get....
The R33 cross member can be imported as my friend found some on the internet but if that doesn't work out then I would have to go the other route with the standard to be modified...
I still have the std turbo for the RB25DET which I think that I will use until I have bucks...
Or just buy a sx with a RB25det conversion done already.
It will save u alot of time efford and money. for sure
There are not many sx's with the RB25DET convesion's available for sale as far as I know and the current sx that I have a lot more custom mods done to the car already so buying another sx just for the conversion wouldn't be the best of ideas from side...
IF u keep a std RB25DET and do a lot of work your self, u should be able to get away with R30K.
I think keeping the RB25 standard would be the best way to go for now until I have funds for the mods that I would like but all at a later stage...
Baby steps... 😂

Std turbo and intake. Only buy engine, gearbox, EMS, intercooler, exhaust, boost pipes. Make engine mountings, p.shaft, exhaust, boost pipes and map engine management system.
