Get some...what tranny you gonna use? I have heard the R32 turbo tranny will bolt up, but never been given solid proof. I have a friend in Yokosuka, here in japan, that has an R32 GTS-t with a 26dett and a 25 GTS25-t tranny.

Geeze, a 240Z with a 26...you'll me owning a lot more than Honda/Acura...i am thinking like...just about anything within limits. Go Fox body hunting...sometimes guys that drive those think they are the shiznit...not everyone...in case someone on NICO has one...just most of them.

there are a few rb 26 240z in the states, the weak points seem to be the rear stub axles and half shafts, I'd love to do the RB in mine but my chassis is far from perfect so I'll have to be happy with my L28ET, should be over 400whp once I'm done

Not 2 bash, but why is it the first time someone stumbles on some decent hp their 1st goal is to race a honda? Wouldn't it be more fulfilling mashin out on anything v-8 even an evo or something else equally as powerful. Anyway, keep us posted on the swap. Any current pics of your 240z. Who did u order the motor set from.
