hey all im in the middle of building a RB26 and am starting to strongly consider selling my 33 and purchasing an old nissan/datson.

was after some opinion of what to look into...

looking at a massive power to weight ratio.

i have thought of the obvious like 1600 and dato ute.. but is there any other wicked old skool cars out there???

and will it fit is prolly a good question..

i no some one has a 30det in a 240z

would love to put my 1000hp GTR engine into a Charger...C4 auto and massive rear slicks.

would run 8's at the strip.

Ive owned 6 Chargers in my younger days they are around 1100kg with the Hemi 6 in them...it would haul ass!!

Strawberry faced 180SX with an RB30 has always been a dream of mine

So have a 26 powered WB ute!

Strangly, I want to put a TT LS1 in a 33.

Would the engine fit into something crazy like a Navara or Hilux?

Gemini?

Van even?

I could on for days...

lol @ gemini, when i had my lil gem i was considering a ca18 swap, rb26 would be bad idea haha power to weight plus youd have to cut into the fire wall etc etc.

buy my gf's FTO and put it in that! doo it. :blink:

old school volvo 240.

That well get some :blink:

Road or drag?

Road some light jap car of your choice

Drag any muscle car that takes your fancy, but you would have been better off with a gen3 v8. Lighter with possibly more potential

    • I think in the modern era we live in, if I were converting a hydro lifter head to solid, particularly when chasing revs, I'd be seeing what I could do to use shimless buckets. Those of us with Neos usually have this persistent niggling fear of a shim getting spat out and ruining everything. Shim-over is...yucky that way. At least the Tomei kit appears to be conventional, but it would still be nice if they'd decided to go shimless.
    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.
