kenzman9076 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 High all! havent been on this wonderful site in years (fell to the darkside Z32TT... again) about 10years ago i built a 76 280z with a RB20DET and loved it but was forced to sell. Looking to get back on the horse with my new 72 project and want to go RB25DE with itb's! so ive been looking around and it seems to be harder to find a DE then a DET. Also i cant seem to find a non-ebay source for a DE. What im looking for are a few links to make it a little easy'r to get started. I've found the wonderful site that is Mckinney Motorsports and the less wonderful but cheaper CXracing. It will be nice to not have to fab all the parts myself this go around. What is the Hybridz feelings about those 2? well thanks for the info and im sure i will be spending a lot more time here now. Im going to put some pics of my old ratrod Green RB20DET 280z and what will be the new beauty Blue RB25DE 240z! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexter72 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Try messaging z-ya on here, he is selling his RB25DE 240z in the cars for sale section. Maybe he can help provide you with some info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helghast7 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I'd definitely go with Mckinney, I know it sucks to have to pay the extra money when CX is so much cheaper but there are lots of people that have broken their stuff before. Only complaints people seem to have with Mckinney is supposedly earlier year z's have weaker trans mounts. Though I also heard they updated the mount to fix it.

kenzman9076 Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 Good info... CX seems to cheaply made.. but i did it all myself with a plasma cutter last time so just having a choice this time around is a blessing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenzman9076 Posted March 30, 2014 Author Share Posted March 30, 2014 Non Turbo RB25 motor sets are harder to find then i would have thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
