wow you know a web forum is taking itself too seriously when people are arguing over how nice you should be to new members. It's like people don't want the site to get new members and grow sometimes.

GReddy or Similar Intake Manifold
AEM
780cc Injectors w/Top feed rail
4088R or a PT76 GTQ
Precesion 750 IC

All the other BS Should be good for more than the stock motor could expect to handle .

A RB26 starts to get cheaper when you factor in the intake manifold and other shit you can find them for 3k if you look McKinney use to sell the RB26 w/RB25 tranny and RB20 oil pan for like 4200 . They no longer sell motors they dont install anymore though ...
so then who do i get it from lol

how much labor time we talking anyway?

ID probably want to get an AEM to make 450-500

Buy the motor from a reputible importer . Talk to ZFever about getting just the motor and go from there .

EBay is your friend when it comes to Nissan's lol ...

Labor time isnt really much more than an SR swap if you get the McKinney Mounts adn the right oil pan etc . Once its all togther it's a tighter squeeze but it all drops in the same ...
