[andyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy]

where are you located? i think there is someone in gympie doing this but into a vs ute (if i remember correctly). i think he has been speaking to my mate who is a mechanic about doing the wiring.

and love the 33 front bar on the commodore. boy will that piss off some nissan fansboys.

^+1, looks like it fits pretty well too, haha.

[andyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy]

yer lol that must be me im from gympie

you might need to work on the cable tie intercooler mounting. im not sure thats the most secure solution.

[mad082]

dude he's from gympie. if you were from gympie, like i am, you'd know that going as far as to put a cable tie on is considered a lot of effort, and it is extremely secure, lol

[andyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy]

yer man i have made up brackets since the cable ties haha as i said thos photos are the early stages, but still cable ties are consider road worthlyable in these parts lol

[SABBAi]

loving the front bar setup.

Mechanically is this very hard to do? i have been thinking about it for some time now for a VU ute,

would anyone know what may be required?

mounting the engine isn't that hard as with the older cars you could just use a a vl crossmember, etc. wiring on the other hand....

also with a vu ute you may have issues with legality of putting in the rb25 as i'm not sure how it goes as far as putting an older motor into a newer car. i'm pretty sure that the motor has to meet all emissions standards of when the car was made. so it's easy to put a new motor into an old car, but not the other way round.

[andyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy]

big fail on the wiring so far is there any one out there that can do it?

[kails]

I think you tried to buy Jamies GTS4 motor yeah? But ended up with a rb25. If you get mega stuck. Im down on the sunny coast might be able to get her going for ya. Will be ALOT of work but nothing i cant handle!

[andyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy]

o spose no one could tell me wat colours to join for example, if you join the blue wire to the purple wire and the red wire to the green then it should turn over lol?

[andyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy]

blahhhhhhh

[NA_Goodness]

Probably not mate, not a very common conversion. Easier to either send it to a Auto Elec, or get a Commy wiring diagram and an RB25 wiring diagram and study them for a while.
