Careless Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 if you get everything with the engine, including the RB25DET transmission, it will be the same as almost every other RB26 swap. You may be able to run the factory ECU harness too. As stated, Racinjitter has some real answers as to what kinda cross member or this and that you would be looking at making the job easier. total cost for an RB26 in one of these? Maybe close to 7000 said and done. could be a touch cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racinjitter Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 You will not be able to fit the rear turbo into a LHD Z31. Soooo with that said you will have to convert to single turbo or make some new exhaust manifolds. The reason for this is the steering I shaft will be interfering with the entire rear turbo. The rb26 wil be the most expensive swap to install into a Z31. Here is a link as to what crossmember will be needed or modified. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=119145 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z24O Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 what about this one....later model i know oh yeah and RHD and 2+2 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-300ZX-with-a-RB26DETT-intercooler-turbosmart_W0QQitemZ160280941997QQihZ006QQcategoryZ35227QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careless Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 total cost for an RB26 in one of these? Maybe close to 7000 said and done. could be a touch cheaper. That price i shot out there includes everything for a standard setup... then again now that you have to go to a big single, you're looking at a manifold and a large turbo and some tuning + engine management.
