Dude the NEO is sweet if you don't want to bolt on any commonly available parts!

How much is that going to run you? Ben how much did you spend on your rb swap?

by hatchfreak Thu Feb 19, 2009 1:02 pm

hey whats up so i hear ben want me to race you when your done with your car

by lilskyline240 Thu Feb 19, 2009 1:29 pm

well my swap cost me a lot. Alot of Research and tryin to find parts that fit together correctly. but then again thats what happens when u do a Frankenstein Rb30 build where info about that build is very scarce. If i could do it all over again i could do it ALOT cheaper. Ive learned so much about the RB motor from this that in the future when i do my next RB swap i should be able to do it VERY cost effectively

by **lizmo** Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:14 am

that would equal a 5L not a 3L

Yeah i bet, i talked to a guy in know that works for Wilde Toyota on hwy and he said motor tranny ecu and harness was like 6k through them

by **lizmo** Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:30 am

damn talk about upcharging... i didn't pay nearly that much for that stuff. haha.

by 2ndcar Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:33 am

Yeah that's coming straight from toyota, where'd you get your set from?

by **Flicktitty** Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:41 am

I know the V160 goes for like $5500 NEW through toyota still.

FNFMotors out of Canda.

by 2ndcar Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:48 am

How were they to deal with?

by **lizmo** Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:52 am

they were okay. they sent the wrong ecu (they sent a 2jzge) so they sent the right one, and they didnt ship the ignitor box and asked them for that too and they sent that, but i had to pay for that.

by lilskyline240 Fri Feb 20, 2009 2:08 am

Kori knows what motor she wants. your not going to sway her decision Smile

Plus we already are gunna have a 2jz coupe runnin around. Y not add a Rb26 coupe to the mix. I dont believe we have any rb26 swapped S-chassis on this forum yet?

by 2ndcar Fri Feb 20, 2009 10:25 am

So i guess i have to do the VQ then so we have one of those.

by **Flicktitty** Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:15 pm

That would be badass.

i like the VQ idea personally.

or go LSX

by 2ndcar Fri Feb 20, 2009 1:09 pm

I'll leave that one for you, when you get your 240.

by lilskyline240 Fri Feb 20, 2009 1:10 pm

vq would be tight. but im not sure anyone on this board would be able to help ya with the install lol

by 2ndcar Fri Feb 20, 2009 1:21 pm

all i need is a couple people to drink with. i've got at least another year before i can start that project anyway and by then there should hopefully be some more people doing the swap. otherwise i'll be doing a lot of research which i would do any way, but hey after that ride in your car i might change my mind lol

by lilskyline240 Fri Feb 20, 2009 2:11 pm

well i wish there was a VQ swapped s13 u could compare it to. But to me a boosted motor will always go in my car over an all motor... Hell even if i did a LSx swap it would be S/Ced Wisconsin Member.. new to the forum and nissans - Page 3 5677

I'll have a lot of research to do, but i may be better off going with something an rb or a lsx, i just don't want to hit the gas and have my ass end swing out unexpectedly if I'm trying to drift, but that would just be something i'd have to get used to i guess. We'll see what i come up with in the next couple of weeks, maybe i'll put a poll together.
