dope wheels, would def consider an 18/19 stagger though. look into bn kits the only thing that looks dec is the wheels. all personal choice, no disrespect.

future · 07-11-2012, 02:31 PM

That front bumper! Ew

And also this thread does not need to be in a reginal section and it is also not a build thread so IDK if the mods will close or not

vinnyjdm · 08-23-2012, 11:53 AM

How much will you sell for?

that bumper is really killin the look of it, other than that the engine bay is looking dope

Maikeru5 · 08-24-2012, 06:00 AM

Agreed. I like the whole car, but the front bumper makes me want to slit my throat.

GTR_240SX · 08-24-2012, 08:30 AM

Te cars not for sale but the engine is... I'm looking to get the R34 RB26 just because it's a newer engine but if I don't end up selling then I'll just part it all out...

For te front bumper...lol. Well yes it makes it look like batmans car but I took it off and put on the pig nose with lip on. Now for those that are in IL my car is with a bumper so if you see me beep your horn...lol

vinnyjdm · 08-24-2012, 01:50 PM

OgSilviaSkywalker · 08-24-2012, 01:53 PM

why not just build this engine instead of forking out lots of money for a stock r34 rb

GTR_240SX · 08-24-2012, 02:09 PM

I'll sell for the right price without the rims and depends on the offer pm me if it's lower than 12k then keep looking everyone knows this swap is expensive....

GTR_240SX · 08-25-2012, 07:17 PM

Willing to let the car go for $10K nothing lower. Will be putting it up for sale in the cars for sale section...

7o7drft240sx · 08-28-2012, 05:18 PM

interested in the harness if you do decide to part out. lmk

Yes it was very much worth it and I had fun with it while I had the swap and would've kept it but I was running into some issues with the motor.
If your looking to do the swap I'm sure you'll be very happy just be prepared to spend some cash. If you need a downpipe I have one and 2 MAFS also. If not well good luck and I'm sure you'll be happy with it

Stensland86 · 03-22-2013, 10:11 AM

Sorry to sound dumb i was just wondering if it was worth the extra coin because ive heard its a waste. Im a die hard skyline fan so im pretty sure im going with an rb26 in my project. is it easyish to install? what tranny do you use? the rb25 tranny?

Your not sounding dumb your just wanting to know if it'll be worth it. I think it's worth it but its expensive and the swap not all that easy but if you have all the right tools then it becomes very easy.
You want to make sure you go with the RB25det trans though.
Just remember that parts are very hard to come by and can take awhile. If your looking for a downpipe I have mine for sale.
Let me know if you have any other questions

OrangeVirus1 · 03-29-2013, 12:25 AM

dudee where did you get that front bumper! I want to put 2 on mine
