I'm referring to the base model fc, no sunroof. In the end, they are both light cars.

id try a ka-t, do a basic turbo kit, walbro in tank 255 fuel pump and 7-1 fmu, youll have allot of fun with 200-215 whp, ka-ts are fun motors!

You look into, i dont wana say anything that would put my foot in my mouth, but i know when i was looking into them i got this understanding:1.) expensive2.) comes with an awd transmission = ghey3.) where to get a rwd transmission that fits good luck.4.) rumor has it a rwd r33 transmission fits and to make it fit cost as much as the rb26 it's self (embelished) but still i didn't even both any more to look into the subjet any further.

any rb26 project car+engine is like at least 6000$ spent right there and all the shiz you need in order to complete the swap your looking 9-10K and thats not even saying it would look hella flush or risky devil clean. that would be a 240 w/ steelies and and rb26....

but i do know if you have DEEP POCKETS then yeah it would be cool but for your first project.... (where is the palm on forehead smile?)

arby's are sick dont get me wrong either just spendy and if your willing to make it rain then you could achieve this (my nightly wet dream)team toyo rb26
seeing any rb20 or rb25 r32 or r33 trannies fit the rb26, the swaps expensive, i drive mine daily, its fun but rbs are money pits!

Also, I would look into the sr20det and other options that are available. Please dont do it just because its JDMTyte Y0

<3 Visser
I feel like you maybe shouldnt have recomended Zilvia.net. There is enough info between here and google and all over the net that people dont need to be misinformed by Zilvia.net people.

Hah. I was trying to be very nice...I answered your question by giving you some resources to look at. Your question was so vague that no one could possibly answer it correctly. I usually do not pull out the "search" card (unlike practically everyone on Zilvia regarding any question ever asked even if it is a new one) but I had to because it was so vague.

The reason I told you to slap yourself was because you said that all you know is you want a sr20det. Anyone who says this with obviously no car knowledge should be slapped for being a trendy b****.If you cant take it, I suggest you ask your mommy to call my mommy and convince her to ground me.
