Haha :P
I'll get it done as fast as I can!

Finally got some parts in, it's been too long since I've thrown cash at this thing. I got ISIS 3" dual tip exhaust for the RB, and Buddy Club seat rails for the Bride to finally go in. Pics later when they're installed ;)

Done and done! ;)

Definitely man! It's a swap that costs a bit more than what I want to spend, but they're amazingly built as you said and can make some serious power!

Parts installed! Axleback is only hanging there, cant install it till I get the motor in ;)

Exhaust:



Seat:

RB swapped 240z or 280z would be pretty sweet!

Picked these up locally, figured they'd fit the car a bit better on the track ;)


Before anyone asks, no they're not genuine lol, got them for a steal though!

Thanks everyone! I wish I had more updates but I don't haha, just boring work on the car getting it ready for the swap. I will be posting up a few photo's later on as I'm prepping the bay though.

I did get one of the new Brides in last night, and WOW. I don't think I'll be moving around much when I get on the track! haha.

Well, change of plans. No longer RB :l I really wanted to get that going in here, but some s**t came up as usual, and funds are no longer as much as I planned. But right when I got screwed, I found a full SR20DET swap for 600$. Comes with everything, just needs a harness and ECU. Has good compression, turbo's in great condition also.

So, I figured with the cash I'd spend on a full RB swap + accessories just to install it, I can pick this up, fully rebuild it and throw a lot of extras on it for even less and make more power.. so I got it! Here's a little teaser..I'll throw up more pics once I get it on the stand and cleaned up.

Sweet dude. Even though its not an RB, the SR20 is still a great engine.

Plus it'll pull a premium a week before race wars. :lol:
