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.

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.
