Thats cool, good luck on the project! How do you get around customs when bringing a car into the US? they busted my balls when i tried bringing an R33 front clip in.. and i had papers!

Re: Hey i'm new here's my project

Nice project! I've always loved the RB26 motor. Mostly just how it sounds lol. I supose that's not exactly a good reason to like an engine. Keep us updated with progress! I'd love to see how this comes together.
