RB26dett swapped into 240sx

any ideas on where to get it done, or how much it could cost?

A place by where I live did that r34 swap into an s14.......

the RB26dett swap will require an rb25 tranny, so it could get costly.

The engine alone will run you at least $3,000 (less if you're lucky). The tranny I used for mine only cost about $700, but it was through a wholesaler, so don't expect to find one that cheap. I had the bellhousing redrilled, and the stock S14 driveline worked fine, since the tranny sits the same as an SR tranny. A 240's engine bay is smaller than an S14's though (by a little) so you may have a radiator clearance problem, but nothing serious.

Hi boys!!! By de swaping de engine-skyline into S14 do u have to change de engine mounts,or dey are da same???
Thanks!!

your gonna need to install custom mounts to get it in there.

I am doing a rb25 into a 89 240 and I went to top hat performance they offer packages that make the swap simple.

Lads do u know de companies who r selling thes engine mounts????
cheers!!!

try top hat performance that seems to be the only place that I have found good prices and I know other people who have bought the mounts and like them alot I am waiting to recieve mine but when I do I will post to tell you how they are.

i just found these guys online by mistake but they sell the mount and driveshaft kit for the rb25det and rb26dett swap into the 240 and they also sell waterpumps and oilpumps for cheap. http://store.yahoo.com/phase2motorsports/index.html

spartenburg, sc

they're awsome..they do some pretty clean swaps..kid i know who had an sr swap done, blew a head gasket..they came and pulled the motor at his house, took it back..replaced it and brought it back and installed it within a week.

and he lives here in columbia

damn good service..if you live near here

I DIDNT KNOW YOU COULD DO A RB26DETT ON A 240SX. I THOUGHT THAT THE ENGINE BAY IN A 240SX WAS TOO SMALL FOR A RB26. BUT I KNOW THAT YOU CAN PUT IN A RB25DET IN THERE. THAT WOULD ALSO BE A GOOD OPTION EVEN THOUGH YOU MIGHT NOT GET THE SAME PEAK HORSEPOWER OUT OF IT. BUT EITHER WAY ITS NEW FOR ME TO FIND THIS OUT.

heres some links of an rb26 swaped into a 240sx that has 600rwhp

RB26DETT is in my opinion the best swap for an S-body... KA24DE is a great motor for forced induction, but for those who need more, two more cylinders is the answer.

I see everyone raving about RB25 transmissions, has anyone considered that you are able to make good use of the RB26's advanced AWD transmssion???

The major issues between the stock ka24de and the rb26dett is on the interior, the skyline's transmission is considerably longer which causes the shifter to be a little further to the rear of the car. But honestly, you are talking about swapping a motor, that is automatically a rather un-natural act for a production car. Customization is essential, I suggest that the pricy AWD system that you pay for goes into use. Or consider playing the waiting game for a GTS-T, the RWD variation of the RB26...

This is not for those of us on a budget, i will continue to dream about winning the lottery and buying my RB...

$3000 for a motor/trans (at least) and to protect your investment, you are going to want some aftermarket goodies. Nobody wants to blow a few grand on a motor that doesnt last, so if i were to take on the project i would spare no expense and replace anything that isn't in absolute mint condition!!!

IM doing a RB26DETT in my 92 240sx do i need to switch to AWD

look at your other post, i replied to it there
