[Walshy006]

Hi everyone I bought my r31 ti project for $350 and shes running ha but starting to get a loud ticking more than the usual so instead of stuffing around I was thinking of dropping a vlt a8 motor in or a rb25det only looking for 200-250 max atw bolt in a low km motor and away I go sort of thing just wanted a few ideas as all the topics and info on the engines differ is it hard to get the power im after out of either of theses engines with out too much work ??

thanks

Go the 30 et, plenty of aftermarket stuff available and the vlt ecu SHOULD plug straight into your existing loom

Yep, ET will do you well.
