Ways to make your heavy ass Z32 even heavier:

1. date fat chicks
2. add RB motor

Notice a couple things.

Had to move the radiator cause the motor is too long

Front of the motor sticks above the hood line by quite a big


This has been done in japan. has to have a stupid look hood with a huge bump at the front. Doest fit great and goes further forward. In my opinion, an rb is a better motor than a vg mainly because they are simpler and hold up better. VGs are hard to build right, hold in lots of heat, and harder to work on in the car. I would not however even think of swapping in an rb even though i prefer that engine becaseu i dont think it would improve the car. I hate when people do crazy swaps just because its different and dont stop to think if its improving the car or if possibly there is a better chasis to suite their goals.

There are only two reasons i would ever see for this swap and both are race cars. One if you are making an all out drag 300 since an rb26 would be an easier motor to put power and reliability in(not that you couldnt in a vg), or if you have a full tube wide body road race car with a 300 fiber shell that is getting a front midship mounted RB.......not that I know anyone with this
