See every time I think about doing a big job on a car, I'm always worried I'm going to screw it up or not be capable. Really though, car work is all about learning and effort. Just start doing and you can almost always accomplish a task. Even rebuilding an engine can be simple if you take it one step at a time. You just have to put in the time and effort. I hope this summer my channel will show as much time and effort with great results as your channel. Nice editing too. 5:20 was funny. Thanks for the great vid as always, Kalvin.
Dude, awesome job going into detail about about the intake side of plumbing and what not, extremely helpful! I will be coming back to this video as reference for sure! Please do the same when you put the exhaust/turbo side back on! Very very helpful good work on your videos as a whole also. Keep it up.
I didnt notice one but you need a check valve inline on your brake booster line . Brake boosters dont like positive pressure its only designed for vacuum.
reroute that blue vacuum hose along the firewall were the brake lines are use zip ties to hold it in place think that would look better then just dangling down like ya have it
The timing skip on my rb25 and I have an opportunity to buy a cheap rb20 Neo. It is swapped into my s13 hatchback but I was unsure if the motor mounts and transmission bellhousing would all bolt up the same on an rb20
hey Kalvin my names joshua I'm currently doing a rb20 swap in my s14 you gave me the inspection but being new to doing swaps I was wondering if you could do a walk through on how to hook up the vacuum lines and turbo vacuum lines?!!
hey bro I think you need a one way valve in running from your manifold to break booster. Wont be able to use break well while on boost haha. nice video man keep It up :D
Hey Calvin, I have a rb20 240 with a very similar engine setup to yours (big top mount, fmic, intake plenum, fuel rail, etc) and I'm confused how you have your fuel set up. Which side of the fuel line is the feed and which is the return, and where do you place your fpr? Sorry if it's a stupid question, I'm only 15 😅
Yoooo first off love the car, second can you show how your external waste gate vacuum lines are set up? i just got a manual boost controller and my external gate has two ports one on top and one on the bottom which line goes where?
you run the boost signal line to the bottom port and leave the top port open. you only use the top port with an electronic boost controller with a solenoid that allows it
Anyone running this intake plenum know what the thread size/pitch is on the brake booster fitting? I've been searching for hours and I'm coming up dry.
Kalvin you wasted money on the factory paper gasket. cometic makes a better intake manifold gasket that won't rip when you take the intake manifold off.
The material that the factory Nissan one makes it a one use gasket. Cometic is not a paper gasket that will not fall apart. fine for a unmodified car but if your modified you will be removing the intake more than once. It starts to add up and cost you down time.
i agree. i would rather stay with the nisstune than go megasquirt as long as the ecu and wiring is in good nick. i would never go near another megasquirt

looking at the way the oil filter is located....is there any complexity to the filter removal when doing the oil change?
very nice paint in engine bay i love that!
+cars and other stuff 👍🏼👊🏼
Whats sized and what thread used for vaccum hose fittings all 5 ?
Mind didnt came with one so hard to find right fittings ?
Do you know if a rb20 Neo will bolt onto a r33 gtst transmission from a series 2 rb25det
hey bro I think you need a one way valve in running from your manifold to break booster. Wont be able to use break well while on boost haha. nice video man keep It up :D
what intake manifold is that??

How is that plenum? No leaks? Did it bolt right up? Looking to get one. So sick of my factory intake lol
@kalvin, what's the set up on your drive shaft ,rear end and axles?????
What kind of gasket did you use for the front facing plenum
wait what happened to the rb25 im so lost
You should make a how to rb swap a 240sx video
Yooo! What intake is this? Looks like the stock bottom plenum? Looking at a plazmaman intake mani for my rb20.
hey Kalvin, did you have to extend your injector harness to tuck it under the manifold?
What fuel rail is that? I need one because mine was shipped with a broken one... And you got a Facebook?
Get some Tesa tape for the harness
+El Morel is that the stuff that doesn't have a shine to it? But need like a knife to cut it open?
Did you use custom motor mounts or an r32 subframe?
Is this an rb20det red top from r31?
Link to the intake manifold
Yoooo first off love the car, second can you show how your external waste gate vacuum lines are set up? i just got a manual boost controller and my external gate has two ports one on top and one on the bottom which line goes where?
Slammed510 Use the top port and leave the bottom port open.
you run the boost signal line to the bottom port and leave the top port open. you only use the top port with an electronic boost controller with a solenoid that allows it
are you running the stock lower intake manifold
Hey kalvin I just wanna say thanks for putting a nissan engine in a nissan car. never turn sides lol stay loyal
Are you going to change the oil and filter?
+rahul vadher Of course.
That fram filter though
Get some wire wrap from harbor freight. It's only 3 bucks and it'll last in the long run.
"im pretty damn coold and it's pretty damn windyyyyy" kalvin 2k17.
hmm I would have been tempted to replace the thermostat while it was out.
+Silviasean It's only a year old. No need.
Oh ok. tight
cool vid

Just drill and tap to a fitting you're able to get. That's what I did.
Kalvins Garage I figured that's what most do, thanks for the response!
Love this channel
How much horsepower you trying to achieve ?
TheInFaMoUsDeMoNz all of it
Loved this vids
Kelvin what throttle cable you running on the RB
Ricky Mudhar he clearly says it in the video
Kalvin you wasted money on the factory paper gasket. cometic makes a better intake manifold gasket that won't rip when you take the intake manifold off.
BlueRB240 why does it matter. you should replace gaskets like that every time you remove them anyway....
The material that the factory Nissan one makes it a one use gasket. Cometic is not a paper gasket that will not fall apart. fine for a unmodified car but if your modified you will be removing the intake more than once. It starts to add up and cost you down time.
throttle body q45?
RB20
Kalvins Garage oo I didn't realize it was thst big
Thanks for the reply
What's up kalvin it's your Boi William
Don't use a mega squirt dude,HIGHLY recommend Link ECU 10/10
i agree. i would rather stay with the nisstune than go megasquirt as long as the ecu and wiring is in good nick. i would never go near another megasquirt
Yeap me either,I have had one bad experience with them,6k worth of motor,never again...Also know a few friends of friends that have had issues
