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?

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?

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