Dans Rb25 Laurel

[SIR GSR]

Any trouble with the engine swap? I am thinking of doing the same on my C32 Laurel...

[DemsA31]

engine swap was easy as.. I was literally doing ringies out the front of the workshop 24 hours after we pulled the rb20 out.

A c32 might be a fair bit harder because they run an L series engine dont they?

[SIR GSR]

Mine has the RB20E in it atm...

[DemsA31]

ah shouldnt be too hard then, will just have to get a gearbox crossmember made up and get the tailshaft modded.. thats all that was required with mine, apart from wiring, but there were no major hassles there.

[DemsA31]

how she rolls at the moment - still halfway through fitting the kit and doing some supporting mods for the turbo..

[SIR GSR]

That's looking very tidy...

[toffy]

looks tuff , i love lorries

[DemsA31]

latest mods - D-project rear camber arms, traction rods, alloy cradle bushes, tie rods and tie rod ends.. also have some custom front knuckles in the works at the moment, as well as waiting for some new steering rack bushes, and front and rear roll centre adjusters to roll up at the workshop.

hopefully she should handle ok now

[DemsA31]

well if fitted all the kit up and hopefully i will have it all tuned and out on the track on the 18th april.

Sex! Looks tough, although dnt quite know what to think about the rear wing hahaa, but in the last pics it aint on, have you done away with it? or just removed it while on the street?

[DemsA31]

i was under the impression the front bar was a junction produce, the side skirts where BN and the rear bar is called "devil" it has a logo glassed into it on the inside like vertex kits do.

The wing isnt very street friendly, and I need to make some braces up that go under the boot skin to stop the whole boot from denting in when i drive.

[Dan_J]

front bar is bn for a 2nd check ( the c33 one looks very sim to the wonder bar)

rear bar is devil (Tanaka Tire Industry)

sides r uras no doubt

The motor was already in a 32 that had its loom modded for a 25, so I cant really help you there, but I know there is very little modding involved and you can even still run your rb20 ecu.

fitted a nismo 2way, hydraulic handbrake and a fire extinguisher today, all ready and pumped for drift school.
