I’m pretty good with the fabrication, painting and wiring. Get it how I like it but when trying to learn how to build a motor I just can’t get myself to by myself, I’d love to reason Ill do it along with him and mainly I’ll be doing it he’ll just guide me on it. 

reason I learnt how to paint, fabricate and some basic wiring skills is Because my father and learnt step by step from him hahah

Sounds like a plan. Hopefully there aren't any issues getting your mates spare time. 

I had a car sitting in a workshop for over 5 years that was meant to happen between jobs at mates rates... it's now been sold for parts

Don’t let people scare you off trying to do things or by buying parts that you don’t really need.

I just got my 25 back and it pushed 540rwkw on 28psi with a little meth.

where there is a will there is a way.

Save money on some parts to be able to spend more on others

up to to you of course and what you feel you're confident with but I've built 7+? partial or full-build motors by myself in my garage; not a mechanic and never had any formal training. Just internet research (didn't even have internet back then for the first 2 builds lol) and workshop manual studying, and a few pro-tips from a mate that worked at an engine rebuilders. All have run flawlessly and never blown up lol. An RB25 isn't exactly a hi-tech engine IMO, as long as you do your research, use a reputable engine shop for the machining, take your time with the build, you might save yourself $1000's, and learn alot on the way?
