RB26DETT into a GTST?

[hooligan]

hmm..i was think of sticking a RB26DETT into my gts25t.. can i do this?.. and wat would i need to change if i do?? (like gearbox,etc..?)

I think you could do a hell of a lot of mods to your RB25 (and the rest of the car too) for the $8k plus alot more in labour that it would cost......

Sell car

Buy GTR

otherwise it costs to much by the time you buy a front cut (because you want all the other good stuff too, trans etc).

Anyway a real GTR has higher resale.

u can do it i know about 3 people that have done it one car came from jap like it..personally i dont think ya want to traction is really a BIG issue..mates got 400rwkw and he runs it back on stock boost cos its not driveable thoe this is a high powered example but still in a rwd car its a handfull...get a gtr the u will have some traction at least...high power gtrs loose traction trust me.

Speak to Jet-33 has an rb26dett r33 gtst in melbourne

like petr33 said there are many more mods that you could do to produce the same type of power figure by spending the money on the rb25.

he brought the car like that.

And i agree.

For the price of a GTR motor... you could re-build your own and KNOW whee it's come from.

Getting a motor from a wreaker might be flogged and only last you 12 months.

You usually only get a 3 month warranty with the motors from wreakers.

Also, if you make more power, either way you gotta spend money on, suspension, brakes etc etc.

Not worth it. Slap a 3ltr bottom end on it, bit turbo, more power and reliablity that a stock RB26.

Provided you have all the supporting elements
