I have read a bunch of the thread info and it seems that some have built their own mounts but most have bought their mounts. I would like to build mine and didn't know if anyone had ever measured any specific dimensions for them? I have a 1973 240z and a RB25DET. I am planning on using the standard 240z mounts/insulators and then installing the custom brackets over them. I will attached pictures of what I have so far.

Yeah.. I think that it is way too dark as well.. Had them mix it twice and it came back the same way. I need to visit a dealer to be sure. labeled properly as mixed by my paint guy..

What is your favorite color for my 1973 240z? I'm leaning to Mediterranean Blue

I bought a 1978 280z to have some spare parts for my 1973 240z. It looks like the rear diff is a definite swap over. What other parts should I be swapping over to upgrade my 240z?

Here is the build album so far..Started off wanting to do a L28 build and then decided to go RB25. Also started to go lime green and now going BMW Laguna Seca Blue...(most likely )

Gaiden_08, I don't plan on modifying the engine bay at all for the RB swap. There is a sticky on the RB swap, that I would read if you are really interested in the swap.

Hey mtnickel, sorry for the late response. I had already ordered a RB25DET and it should arrive tomorrow. I am on a pretty limited budget and wanted to make sure that I actually finish the car first. (Complete restore) Then probably add some money after she is running and driving for a year or so. Thanks for the input though. I am in the process of stripping down the engine bay and prepping for the RB to arrive. In a bare minimum, get it running sort of scenario, can I run stock brakes and or suspension? I have a 1978 280Z that I am going to strip for parts. It looks like the rear end is a good swap. Any other specific parts that I should swap over? thanks for any help of info.

Hey Guys and Girls!
So I'm jumping into a crazy project that has been tackled by so many here already! I first have to thank so many of you for all of your awesome write ups. Without those I would not even be considering this. I'm building a 1973 240z. I'll post up tonight with a little background.

Hi guys! So I am new to the forum, but a car nut and about to jump into a 1973 240z-RB25 build. I wanted to get your reviews on a company named "JDM Quality Auto Parts" out of Canada. Any insights? I just didn't know if anyone on here had any experience with them. Hoping to place an order today, unless someone on here has a spare swap kit sitting at there house?? lol jk thanks in advance!
