s13 rb25 swap

[midnight_purple_s13]

i have an s13 with an rb25 an an r33 subframe. my problem is that the engine sits too high with oem engine mounts. i have found shorter mounts but these puts the engine more back and i dont know if it will fit with the head drain kit i have on the engine. is there anyone that have the same swap that can give me some info?

"Head drain" is basically just an added breather for the oil sump. You can just weld a fitting and add a breather hose/tank for the oil sump and save the space behind head. There's a massive oil control topic on SAU forums that is well worth the read.

Edit: Now that I read your message again I see that you have the drain kit already fitted, so my post might not be the most helpful

A31 or C33 subframe sits the engine in the best spot (I believe that’s what is in mine)
