TBCMORRIS, wow. Cool saying, but true cus it's one of the best V8's ever made. JDMMA70, i'd like to see where you got that info from - where you read it.
And FYI, I own the DVD with the RB26DETT swapped Top Secret MK4 one gold AND one white. It's called Midnight 200MPH Blast (world's top speed bandit Smokey Nagata) by JDM Option - if you wanna get it.
They have that car AND a Skyline (Japan's version of the USDM Infiniti G35) with a V8 with TWIN TURBOS (engine code VK45 - one of Nissan's V8s). They put that engine in the Skyline because the new GT-R wasn't out yet and they wanted to build one with serious power to do 300+km/200mph runs!
Same with the MK4 Supra. They figured a 3300lb rwd car with superior aerodynamics mated with the RB26's power potential and high revs could reach 200mph faster than a GT-R with AWD. And it did!
So if someone put an RB26 in an MK3, then I say cool. The motors are pretty much the same price depending on where you shop. They do rev higher than the 2JZ, so what can I say? It's Godzilla!! I thought about it myself. But the badge...that's a different story.
And I don't know why they put JZ's in 240sx's when they can put an RB25 OR 26 in their cars if it isn't about weight! But I gotta give it to anybody with the ingenuity to do it. But the badge...such disrespect to the marque IMHO.
