You can absolutely swap in an rb25det and leave the wheel on the left. The downpipe fitment issues are with the rb26dett.

the twin turbos also impede with the steering column in the LHD cars.

i have a 93 240sx and i swaped the engine with the RB26DETT,. i had some problems when i swaped it but everything worked out and the engine is a monster. some problems when i swaped it------->i had to take one of the turbos off and instead of twin turbo its just one. but even thought it still gives me about 310-320 hp at the flywheel (including some other mods i made to the car) the swap was fairly easy for everything except the turbo incedent. i have a 6 speed gear box, and its awesome... i had to do alittle frame work but it didnt take too long and everthing worked out great. i bought the engine from a japanise import-export dealer and it cost me $8500.00 including shipping. i have never been beaten in a straight line race. (that is after i got the engine swaped, but before that i have been beaten many times) well i dont race much, yet, because i am waiting for more $$$ so i can get some more mods... etc well if you wanna know anything just ask....

another dirtydawgs on our hands? why to people need to be so damn feeble? i drive a 12 year old, 344,000km Pontiac family car with an automatic transmission and no hubcaps, yet i'll readily admit it. i won't lie about what i drive. i don't necessarily like the car i drive, but it get's me around, and i know i'll have a 240SX before October (have to wait until after my court date).

You had one for a day, and have driven many a 240, thats more than some people can say

Diry Dawgs also claimed he has trouble during the swap, but Heavy Throttle helped him

Were dealing with a new kind of lamer here. A very educated one lol
