Klmykvl Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) I used CX Racing mounts, and oil pan for my RB25 swap and don't have any complaints a year later. Can't speak on their inter cooler or piping Edited July 21, 2017 by Klmykvl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't speak on their inter cooler or piping How do you like the RB swap? I can't decide whether to go with the RB or SR20. Sr20 has so many parts, but RB25 is a straight 6, not as many parts though.

BluDestiny Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I bought the top mount turbo manifold they sell. It didn't come with a flat flange, and the interior had a bunch of slag on it from welding. so I basically spent anotehr #250 to have it machines, checked, and braced up. I could have gotten a doc racing manifold for that price. As for the mount kits, including Mckiney, they are all designed to keep the original sr20 front sump oil pan, and the driveshaft angle is a little steeper than I'd like. Because of this I went with a custom fabricated setup and mounted the engine as low and straight as I could. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessejames Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 The kit looks pretty good for the price. I'm using the Whitehead Performance cradle. I've had no complaints. I've been running it for 9 years. https://whiteheadperformance.com/gallery/datsun-260z-sr20det-swap/ The only complaint I have with the WHP cradle is it uses the original 240z motor mounts.
