Found these on Ebay. The price is insane but they're nice to look at. Does anyone have info on how hard it would be shoe-horn that into a 240?

I have been told the TT RBs and VGs will not fit in the 240. Only the Single Turbo engines. I know for sure Unstable-Hybrids got the RB20DET, and VG30DET (or was was it VG30ET). It seems to be that the TTs tak up too much space, I am not sure why they could fit (I am thinking it has to do with the steering column, but don't take my word on it).

the vg30dett requires quite a few mods to jam in there, Its possible but not worth it i think. Just put the RB25DET in there or an RB26DETT with a single turbo conversion and its all good. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

From what i hear the LHR Stearing columb messes it up for the working in a 240, u have to heavely mod your car, its possable but will cost arond 15k

I've seen a VG30dett in a 240 but it was heavily modified. You need a custom hood for clearence, motor mounts etc. What is the weight difference between RB and the SR? I wonder if it would affect driveability and how dependable it would be to drive in anything other than a straight line. The skylines have a 4wd drive-train for a reason. Especially if you mod those RB's and turn up the boost.

with the RB26 you just use the RB25 tranny and it works fine, and the steering clearance prob would be solved if you go with a single turbo.
