Hi guys, Im in the process of doing an rb25 swap into my 240z and was wondering if anyone knows of someone who makes modified oil sumps for this swap so I can buy. I noticed a guy named Nat0 was making them but I havent been able to get in contact with him. does anyone have his details so I can contact him or know of anyone else who does these? thanks Jezz

Hey guys, ill start by introducing my self. My name is Hadley, I'm 19 and live in the Bluemountains. Last November i sold my beloved Mx5 and decided to get a 260z. I found one for sale 6 hours south so we drove down with a car trailer and next thing i knew i was the owner of this golden Turd.. Its a 1974 2+2 (vin ends in 000764 so I'm guessing it is a really early one). i bought it off an old pommy guy for $2,750, he had been using it to tow his caravan around... the flywheel provide it to. it was unregistered but that was ok. when i got it home i set about cutting out rust and welding in new plates and bogging it up. I must of done ok as it past rego haha. A few months later a mate and i drove to Brisbane one weekend to pick up a l28 block, head and some other stuff. But i haven since decided that i want to do an RB swap instead... which brings me to my main point Ive figured out pretty much everything that needs to be done except for the tailshaft and diff. Ive tried looking everywhere for conversions on 2+2s but i can't find anything that will help. Can i use the standard tailshaft out of my car and will it fit straight in the trans? or do i need to use a combo of both? or just get a custom one made up? Also can i keep the standard diff? its just going to be a stock rb25det atm so will it be strong enough? Im an apprentice so i don't have a lot of money to spend and id like to do as much my self as possible as my brother is a mechanic. cheers guys. some photos of it so far

HS30-00682 240Z 12/1971 I am posting this on behalf of my brother in law. It is a regrettable sale. He no longer has the time to complete the work he wanted to do. He was aiming for it to be a rally car. It has an RB25DET motor, Ecu and loom & gear box from an R33 skyline. The car has also had rear brake upgrades, R200 diff and side shafts, dual pass intercooler. He has a detailed invoice showing all the work done. The body work is starting to show age, this body has also been stich welded by the previous owner .Compared to my car when I first got it, it is in very reasonable condition. This car is white with Nissan stripes down the sides. It also has white matching rims. The interior itself is in good condition, there are custom Gauges and the racing seats have 4 point harnesses. Dash is in very good condition, no cracks or de-lamination of the dash. It has a Blue and Black theme to the interior. The windscreen is new as it was replaced at the time of the engine conversion. The tyres however will need to be replaced. The things that he wanted to do next were a roll cage, new suspension (a bit too low for rally racing) and get the bodywork into better shape. Paul has also picked up some Fender Mirrors from Nissan to be installed (Mirrors are now sold). This car is not currently registered and there is no engineer’s certificate for the conversion. This was a project car and it is being sold as is. The work done by Adelaide Z Cars was designed to be reversible if the intent was to bring it back to original. Selling for $16,500 ONO If interested you can contact Paul via Mobile 0403 191 282 or email 81akira@tpg.com.au ​
