yes it will fit, both rb30 and rd28 use the fs5r30a trans, your clutch, flywheel and all bolts will fit the rb25.
the 30 and 25 block are near identical apart from the 30mm (approx.) extra deck height on the 30.

Re: Differences between RB30 and TB42 driveline
i think youll find the rb30/rd28 use the FS5R30A 5speed trans, and the TD42/TB42 use the FS5R50A trans, they are different bellhousing patern, the 30A trans is pretty strong despite what people say, and alot more parts are available to strengthen them, (google PPG gearsets for FS5R30A) also if your ...

if the gearbox your talking about is a patrol rb30 5speed then yes it will, both the rd28 and rb30s use the FS5R30A 5speed gear box, you can also use the insides out of a R33 GTR skyline, as it also used the FS5R30A but with a different rear case.

if your AFM is shot it will revert to a standard/safe fuel/spark map, thats why it wont rev over 2000rpm. this is like a limp-mode, you can test parts for faults & also you can move the car if needed, (like out of traffic). throw in another AFM and it should go good. the high idle is part of the ...
