I want to get a car and swap a skyline engine into it. Just getting into the race and swap scene but have always been a fan.
My friend is willing to get the car for me as my starting out point but wants to see me put it to good use. He is also a major fan of skylines.
So I told him whatever I get I want to do an rb swap into, but I'm purplexed between the complications and complexities to switch into either a Nissan 240sx (probably going to be an s13) or a datsun 260z/280z.
I specifically joined this forum to ask this question alone. Which body would be an easier, cheaper, less complicated swap?
I know it's going to be tough any which way I go, and it will be expensive, but hey if I can be less poor one way, I'll go with that one. Lol.
I'm in San Antonio Texas and got some friends with some hook ups. The scene close to me isn't that well into datsuns, or nissans in fact. Mostly hondas with fart cans running about just pissing us off. And I'm reedy to show them a real IMPORT with real HP. haha.
Before we start with this, im looking mostly for quick starts, so a "stop light car" haha. And then a nice show when I've stopped and they wonder what the hell just happened to them.
And I'm no professional. I know my fair share about cars, and it was mostly muscle, but I must accept the import scene here. Any info would help, anyone in SA even better. And please dont beat my ass down saying use the search haha. I believe in the almighty search too, but with aid from my own post.
THANKS FOR ANY INPUT!!!!
