Wats The Outcome Of An Rb25 Or 20 Of Bolting Into A C210?


Recommended Posts

thats pretty intense putting a 26/30 into a c210 man cost alot of money like $20,000 i'd say unless you can build the engine yourself and do all the work yourself coz you gotto remember with power like that them brakes wont do and need a better diff and stuff i think its crazy might aswell buy a gtr for that price thats a huge project if you go ahead with it that my two cents but its your prerogative to do whatever ya want though

Thought I'd add my bit.

ATM Im having loads of fun with a twin-carb, mild head-and-cammed L26 in my C210, but as the others pointed out, upgrading the brakes, suspension and drivetrain was my first priority. At this point, If I had a couple of grand I would invest in triple carbs and nothing else. The car can fry tyres as is, cant imagine the handful it would be with triples. While the work so far has set me back a few grand, it is far less than the estimates for the RB conversion.

By the way, if you decide you dont want to repair your car and it has to go, please PM me. Im sure I can find a happy home for it.

    • Hi there, after a quick google search I found this topic as I am also relocating the battery to the boot of my 1998 GTT. I was just wondering how you got on with installing the re-routing and specifically the installing of the harness protectors? How do they attach? Are they just a simple "click-in" affair, or do they attach with bolts? Does the GTT have all the necessary fixing holes for them, for example, where they locate on the chassis? Any help you can provide would greatly appreciated.
    • Thanks mate, yeah I've heard that alot and i am definitely regretting using the 25 Loom now, i have gone through and traced all the plugs from the 20loom and re wired them into the 25 loom, I have currently got Crank, Fuel and accessory's working, just need to finalise the loom and run the wire for the Ignition (Spark) and it should be running, will update if i have any luck.
    • Cheers lad, when I head over there I'll give it a shot.
    • Stock less likely to carry one like that than urethane, but still can, especially if the bolts are not as tight as they should be. If it's making that much noise you should be able to use a hose as a stethoscope> stick one end in your ear, crouch down and wave it around the various possible noise makers and get someone to lift the front end at the guard lip.
    • Broken actuator rod. Could be one of a couple of them broken. Or, it's locked and the central locking actuator is broken/stuck or the actuator rods between it, the lock and the key barrel are jammed or broken similarly. You'll probably need a locksmith/mechanic who is experienced with using slim tools to reach down next to the window glass to manipulate the mechanism. That's assuming that it is not so severely jammed/broken that nothing useful will move.
