AWD RB25DET info needed

I have a 96 stagea RB25DET engine. As some of you guys know, they are AWD.

I'm unsure about one major thing: Mounting it into an S13.

I'm currently looking at two mount kits for this swap. One is made for an RB25DET swap into an S13, and the other is for the RB26DETT into the S13.

I'm unsure of which kit to go with. Since this engine was originally AWD, should I go with the RB26DETT mount kit??

I don't even know what would work. If someone could tell me what is so different between mounting positions on the RB26/RB25 in a SKYLINE that might help me figure this out.

BTW- the engine is going to be converted to RWD of course. The box is on the way to me. The AWD oil pan (like the GTR) will be swapped for a RWD R33 RB25 pan.

Please help a distant american out. :D

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
