how much you looking at spending?

I just purchased one around month and 1/2 ago.

be prepared to spend a bit, and have cashed stored away for any problems you may have.

you will be looking at paying between $11K and $30K for one

its worth it though as in stock form they blow away pretty much anything

paid $12.5K for mine which is good for what i got, but it did have a few dints etc which ill need to get fixed, the sump is bashed up (suspect from when engine was imported) suspension is a little tired ie i am replaceing all bushes in the rear + a few control arms. just replacing the water pump and timing belt on it as we speak.

Im not saying the guy i bought it off is dodgy its what you get with a car of that age that hasn't had huge $$$ spent on it.

what i am trying to say is check it out thoroughly, i really couldn't check mine out as it was in another state, but i would still have bought it anyway its a good car.

There is heaps of magazines with RB S13s in them typical cost for conversions range from about $6k-$12K, thats pretty much stock conversions with RB20/25 to RB26s

have you checked nissansilvia.com for any think there is a few on there inc a $30K+ RB25DETT S13 which is immac

    • Yeah i have R34 with factory small box and now RB25DET NEO swapoed and iam planning to upgrade to big box.  So i would be good as long as i do not change diff? 
    • Based off what you’ve said here, I think I’ve figured out a good bit of what I’ve done wrong -  So on the line going from the PCV valve to carbon canister, there’s a T joint that is pretty much right next to that lower port - I hadn’t noticed that the hose in the diagram was curved to attach onto the carb, so I was putting that line for the lower port onto the PCV line / carbon canister line instead. I’m going to have a flick through the manual again tomorrow and should hopefully find a diagram that’ll show me where that T joint should be connected to. Timing also 100% needs to be sorted out as well, should be able to tackle that tomorrow as well. Definitely feel like I should be on the right track now though. 
    • The screw is for idle (pilot circuit) mixture adjustment. Else, I'm confused ~ the diagram shows 2 carby ports, and the intake manifold port, but you're suggesting the "2nd port on the back of the carb that isn’t mentioned in the diagrams" ...yet, both carby ports are shown...que?... ...in any event, that port should be connected, but if not (like it is now), it's unlikely to cause a backfire out the carby (it would introduce false air and give you a fast/lean idle) ...sounds more like timing issues/spark plug wire routing responsible for the backfiring.    
    • That's fair, I can see both points. I get enthusiastic when I see the FS section has a new post and want to see what interesting thing someone is selling. Then I get deflated it's a bump of a 10 year old post. Ha ha
