I have been in contact with Marvin at Autodream about this very topic. This is the information I recieved back from them:

> For installation you will need:
> 
> Custom engine and trans mount
> 
> Modified driveshaft
> 
> Front mount intercooler with piping
> 
> Custom downpipe
> 
> Electric fan with fan controller
> 
> For everything including the engine/trans with installation will be $8400. The whole conversion will take approximately 1-2 weeks to complete depending no whether or not you need the piping powder coated.

Its a bit tricky to do yourself. If you have time Id still give it a shot. I have the wireing dia’s for RB25’s. You will need one from your 240 aswell and pretty much cut all the plugs off and match them on where to go. Also have to relocate the wiper motor. Im still not worthy of doing them easly but will be shortly. Id give you a hand if you needed. My first time trying one was a NEO and OMG you need to bypass EVERYTHING!!! Soo much work 😛

I’ve got like 4g’s in parts coming this week & i’m pumped to do the swap. I’ve looked at numerous websites (mainly [240sxforums.com](http://240sxforums.com), which is down right now). Its good to see that there are a lot of people interested and a few people actually doing the swap themselves, just like me.

I know this is a year old thread but i’m thinking of doing this rb25 to 240sx swap too. I realize autodream has these custom mounts but are there other custom mounts available anywhere else? I remembered an old thread that someone posted a link to some but i haven’t had any luck finding it through searching. Thanks.
