    Little update. The tax man decided itd be nice to rape me of 1300 euro.
    This was money to pay for getting the engine put in. So im thinking of just goin in headfirst and givin the installation a go myself. Will not even bother trying to wire it myself tho. Anybody know of a garage around dublin with a space or maybe a crane I could rent?...

    Well things have turned for the better, should have engine and prop shaft tomoro, still no joy on a gearbox but hopefully will source one within the next week and i can start this. Want it ready for japfest, could be optimistic... haha.
    Few other bits on the way so getting excited now!
    Suggestions for oil and gearbox oil? What do people use?

    japfest would prob be optamistic......work out how long it will take to do the conversion, and double that, then tripple it again .

    miller oils are supposed to be good. alot of people use it.

    Not 1 bit bit optimistic you could have engine out and new one in ina day if ypu have everything....
    Alot of people just think to much about it sit engine in have everything mated up and if you dont feel up to wiring it your self its ready to go to someone to be wired simple as really

    Anyone know of a shed around dublin? Possibly dublin 15 area? Just a small one I could rent out or a vacant space? Time to attempt my first engine swap haha.

    if you are badly stuck i have an rb25 box here, needs a belhousing as theirs a hole in it, but getting all gears perfectly. u could also buy a blown box and take my internals out which is what i was going to do, ul get a blown box for about 100euro. i bought a recond box for my r33 and got it very hard to find one for sale, cost me 700euro and 200euro to pay a lad to fit it. il let my box go for 100euro if you are interested..
