How hard would it be to swap a RB26DETT into my Touring?

Frick....lets just answer the damn question for Gods sake !

I have an RB26DETT AWD drivetrain on dolleys/carts. No matter what you can afford to do....its the skills involved to get evertything properly placed and custom mounts made,driveshafts etc.
You can always swap electronics etc. too. If he doesent have a built engine though....whats the point of the questionable swap with risky parts?

If its a GT-R , awd....then you'll be cutting out some of the front frame rails to allow for the front halfshafts.
Now get to researching the details......while your in prison for harboring and recieving stolen property.

Thanks for some insight. It is a GT-R but I'm keeping it RWD to avoid an insane spindle conversion up front.

The only thing's to really modify so far that I've come up with are:

1.) Custom Engine Mounts
2.) Custom Tranny Mounts
3.) Custom Linkage....if it doesn't reach.
4.) Custom Driveshaft

The rest of the swap I have complete... Cluster, Computer, Complete harness.

Anything else you could think of that would propose problems?

Aside from full custom exhaust,radiator install and hoses,and subframe conector points welding....your on your way to doing it. I'm not a purist....probably why I'm helping . I will say I don't like whats going on the downlow at all.

Its makes a cool swap ...not so cool.

I'll be doing most of the swap myself, the only things I won't be doing is getting the mounting brackets welded in...I suck at welding...The Exhaust, and of course the driveshaft.

I think for the radiator I'll either use the stock m50 or maybe the one from the skyline...I'll go to an auto-parts store for the hoses and find one that fits.

If I don't go through with the whole swap, I'm keeping the turbo's at least and I'll have a manifold made for them.

have you figured out how to interface the wiring harnesses of the two cars? that alone will be a nightmare of labor.

Yea, it'll be a lot of work just wiring, but I know I'm going to have to trace all the wires from the cluster....hopefully, most of them go into the engine bay, I know a few will come from the OBC....which will probably become useless.

I'm not sure I want to go through with the whole swap anymore....after talking to a couple people about mounts and the harness. They've given some serious quotes...

What do you guys think about just making a manifold for the turbo's?
How much psi can a stock m50 hold SAFELY?

Believe me when I say....if these few things made you take a step back, your not mentally,skillfully,financially ready to do the rest.
I say this with sincerely the best intentions.

Anyone agree.....Jon ??
