sup guys. i had a quick question..and yes i tried the search and got a few things but didnt see what i wanted.

how hard is it to fit a rb motor in a datsun 280zx like mid 80's? rb25det or rb26dett. i know the rb26 is hella expensive but idk if it would be worth the extra money?

and if i were to get a shop to do the swap for me, what u think they would charge? im not a mechanic and i have just about 0 time to learn to become one so i would most likely get someone to do this for me unless i do it over a few months.

thanks guys.

Your in the wrong place... well close...

You will find a bunch more info on hybridz.org on this topic!

The RB should fit very nicely into a 280zx IMO.
