4x4 parts (I think) sells motor mounts for Buick v6. Or you could put a crackhead on the crankshaft, and instead of gasoline, just put crack rocks through the carburettor. But seriously, a Buick series 2 v6 with a 5 speed of some sort would be good. The only hang up I can think of is the intake manifold and the oil pan.

I just saw an RB25 in a hardbody!

And it fit? Isn't an RB about the same length is a VH?I can't decide whether it is worth cutting the firewall to fit my VH45 in or not? There's sort of enough room but not with rad fans and only if the rad is put where the a/c condesor is.

the rb26dett is the most awesome swap i've seen in a 720... could work

AWD?

Post by **PEZi** » Sat Jul 18, 2009 6:19 am

nope... it's that rwd drift one!

Itd be sick to make an AWD 720 with a GTR drivetrain. It'd almost be pointless to do with out lots of cash but, still.

i have a sr20 in mine and it works alright. lots of room but had to cut the firewall. going to have to do that with any other engine

gogo, The rb has lots of room depending on how you setup the turbo, twin vs single.

Just when you order an rb get a rb25dett so you will get a rwd trans. rb26dett comes with awd trans and some companies will credit you the awd trans and send you a rwd trans and it'll knock a bit off the price.

Either way its a bit of work. If you finish you won't be sorry you did it. Alot of people start rb projects and abandon them.

Heck i put a ca18det in my HB and i didn't have to cut any firewall and it bolts and hooks up just like an SR20. Seehttp://forums.nicoclub.com/zer...nd-ps
