Hi Pandavan
i am currently in the process trying to complete a Rb20 conversion on my CF, i have all the mountings of engine and gearbox done, the hard part is the wiring of the computers (ECU and Auto) and all the sensors for the engine to get it to run which has become a nightmare. the Rb's aren't as easy a conversion as one would of thought, i even used a complete vehicle loom taken out of a running R31 skyline to make the conversion easier but in the end it hasn't. Another BUGA member Garry had a Rb30 in his van for awhile, but from what i gather has ripped it out in favour of a 4wd conversion.
the Rb motor's due to the large intake plenum leave very little room between the steering column and engine cover/cavity
here is a link to my album if you wanna have a look at what i have done so far

hey thanks for the link my vans a poptop camper i picked up for $250 needs alot of work so i thought the 25 would be easy i spose not lol does ben still doo glassing? i like the dash and some bits he had i just not sure how too contact people directly
-
yea when i got down to the harder stuff i thought it would be easy to but it has proven otherwise on my van for the moment
ive currently got it all plugged up and have awhile now but am getting no response from the engine but no doubt its something ive missed
and is holding the works up.
from what ive seen Benny has had stuff on ebay and does deal in the parts, just send him a message by PM'ing him by clicking on the IM icon under his Avatar(picture) n he should get that
