Very nice. Also very similar to what I’ve got going. Also, does the greddy manifold come with a new gasket? ---

Nope. I’m kinda pissed (800 bucks and no gasket). I’m getting a new one from the skyline shop along with the valve cover gaskets. I’ve read on a forum that you can actually use the old gasket if its nice, but the IM is off right now, so might as get a new one. ---

Definatly clean that engine bay, and possibly paint or get it painted to what colour the cars going to be. Those are the two things I regret not doing when I did my sr swap. Looks really sexy, Good job ---

> whats the e.g. set up are u going to be running, i.e. turbo type/size, inj size, and what is going to be used for? drag/ drift/ show/ rice haha The engine is pretty stock it costs a lot to do the swap itself. It’s my dd but I want to be able to bring it to a show (that’s why its powdered) and I want to try some autocrossing once the suspension gets upgraded a bit. > In my opinion it is going to be a riced out POS. Its all gravy. I like been different. I could run Advan Series 2 or whatever and be like _everybody_ else. I want to roll up (when I get the swap done) to someone that posts on here, and they see my chrome rims and be like “Hey, its that dude Styles from necc he’s got a RB25 under the hood.” Personally I think rice is wings, kits, and black rims with chrome lips; but that’s just my opinion. ---
