its also expensive because GTR parts aren't cheap even in japan, now just try to get them here....Listen to thecamel, he actually has a GTR so we would know. Plus i think dimensionally speaking the GTR motor is taller than would realistically fit in an FD. How fast is your 3rd gen now that you feel you won't be satisfied with the options for engines that will actually fit?

He doesent have a rx7

Not to mention that the RB26DETT is designed for the AWD skyline. Imagine converting an FD to AWD? Good luck. You could put the Skyline GT-s motor (RB25DET) but whats the point?

or you could take the easy way out, and make the RB26 RWD.



regardless, a RB in a FD is a dumb idea.

So tell me. Whats a better engine for my skyline? A gallo 12 or a gallo 24?

It's not such a bad idea. I love the sound of the skyline inline 6. they're not that expensive either. My friend bought a front clip recently for a couple grand. How does the height compare to the supra motor?

i had to read that about 4 times before i finally got it

I think the stock GT-R motor can only support 500 rwhp...you could get that easily in an FD...for half the cost of the swap.
