Postman what color blue is that? It really pops! Also rb25 or rb26?
My plans are currently to build a new L28et to around 350-400whp but I the rb25 swap is just sooooo enticing! I love high reving motors
Same blue that came on 370z and have the rb25.

That's a vinyl wrap on the bumper right?
How was it to put on? Are you happy with the result? Is the wrap over the original chrome bumper or the fiberglass ones?
I'm interested in doing mine since my chrome isn't in the best shape and I like the look of the fiberglass ones. So if I have a bumper already and can just wrap it, why buy a new one?
They are real cf from MSA and i was happy with the fit of the bumpers. They are very light and are not to hard to install on the car.

I had all summer to take pictures of the engine bay and i have none to busy with paint i guess. This pic was right after i got the engine in the car.

This is what i have in my car right now. I have a rb25 and this setup hasn't given me any problems yet.

I just finish the rb swap in my 260z and found out the engine came with wrong ecu. If anyone has any info that would be great or even has one kicking around for some reason let me know thanks.

You should have used the first gen 13b front cover with the mounts on front.

Well i got the hard lines in the car just have to do all the braided lines later. I also just happened to stumble across this access panel from a late Grand-prix. There are a few things i want to touch up still but so far its all coming together nicely. I warn you all that the bends in my fuel lines aren't the best looking since this is the first time i have done this. More pictures to come soon and maybe i should start a build thread...

Or you could modify the floor and create an access panel. This would greatly reduce the work if you need to service the pump in the future.
Well after looking at what i had i decided a access panel would do. In the picture you can see that i used the same hole saw as i did for the tank. I really had to cut the hole because when the tank is in position the lines are in the car. I do plan to make it a bit longer then i have a panel for the hole and i should be able to make it look very close to a stock access panel. Winter is finally buggering off so i can get more stuff done one the car and get that rb in soon.
I should have this done by the weekend if time allows.

Small update im just waiting for some more of my fuel lines and stuff to come in i should be starting on the fuel system this weekend.
-
Well i got it all in there and its now resting just above the bottom of the tank. The sender clears and should have no problem. With the lines on the top it sits a bit taller than the spacer blocks that were there before but i have a solution for this.
-
After a bit of searching and reading on what everyone else was running for fuel pumps i decided to run this guy. I found a thread that talked about this kit from tanks.com and it did look like it would work for me so i got it.
I should have this done by the end of the weekend but im in no rush so what do you guys think?
