Highmount, you'd be looking at a GT35 frame, or something around the 650/700hp mark basically.

Thats for singles obviously, and if ya still wanna head that route, it'll by far be the cheapest/easiest as twins is a mission.

Twins would just be the usual HKS2530 or similar across any manufacturer.

So manifolds, dumps, oil/water lines, piping of both cooler/intake and so on all need to be made, which is the catch as there is no kit for them i dont think.

Just need to fabricate literally everything to suit the high mount really as there is only high-mount kits for MUCH larger turbos like 2835/TD06 etc. Which really is useless for a streeter.

Nothing overly unique about a 26 in a Gtst bro, its still a twincam RB motor, to the average joe it aint gonna mean shit, trust me, save yourself the drama and just get a GTR and start from that.

OK..now you are getting there.

Now this is what I may do soon.

My Nephews motor has shit itself in his GTR32..like most of them do(this one has a melted piston).

Buy his car with the busted motor..already has N1's Group A turbo's

Great set of rims/suspension and FMIC with pod filters already attached.(all after-market)

A re-build..with forged internals/new pump/collar/PFC maybe throw in some cams..if the money allows.

A quick touch up to some skirts etc..and polish......Drive the GTR

13K for car..10K for re-build ..23K all up

What I would not do....lol

Put a RB26 in a Gtst..no 4 wheel drive,need lots of mods to get it to fit and work...diff,gear/box/etc etc..a nightmare.

Brake upgrade/Rims.OMG the list is huge.

But hey its your money so do as you please...

8K for car..25K for motor/gear/box/clutch/turbo's/PFC/ etc etc etc

33K.

Now I go to sell my GTR32..I get 22K...you go to sell your gtst..you get 12K

Add it up now..10K(You spent more than me)..plus the resale value..another 10K

You have lost 20K and I lost only 1K.

i am thinking of getting a GTR now cause of better handling car for the power

Its funny how the costs and your losses may change :D your mind in being different. ;)

It is all good though..at least you asked the question...and then questioned your thoughts.

18K for a gtr32.....make sure you get it looked at...or Buy my Nephews one...and you know you have to fix the motor.

Good luck

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
