That is one hell of a hybrid project.

There are quite a few companies nowadays that make twin turbo kits for the new lady. The Z is gonna be sweet once companies can bring out its full potential.

The SR20 swap into my brothers 240 was a biatch, I wonder how the RB is gonna be.

Heh... we're actually doing a SR20DET swap right now, but it's not going that hard since we have the front clip, so everything is just transferring over and bolting/plugging right.... so far

What I really want to do is to do 3SGTE swap because a mid-engine RWD car with 15+ psi should be pretty fun to drive...... that and because we've had this damn rear clip sitting here for a few months now

My bad, I was thinking RB20DET - that's a shitty swap IMO.

That is a sick swap, but I think I'm going to wet my pants when I see it at Nopi this year. Good luck on that project, and I hope to see a twin turbo setup eventually.

car will make 625rwhp, simply because it will still be drivable in Atlanta traffic with those numbers.

Eventually, the car may become a 900rwhp beast. But for now, its strictly a street race car.

Expect to see it dyno at nopi!

Kamin, First time installing a non honda motor. Took us about 3 hours to take her out and another couple hours putting her in and setting everything up. The tricky part was getting the tranny to come out. It was fun doing the install but the drive after was a lot better.
