skyline engine question

I have many skylines and a 300zx I would love to have a motor for but they seem to be hard to find. I've never done any casting of parts but I plan on doing this and ending up with many little rb26's. I'm wondering what the best kit would be to buy with this motor and how many options do I have. I don't want to end up with a kit where the bottom half of the motor is molded into the chassis. Any Info on the motors, or casting would be great!, thanks!

Tamiya's R32 GT-R comes with a detailed RB26.

I got the same idea a couple years ago: I started to cut out and prep parts ( I like to have some sub-assy alone to help paint customizing and to display the RB26DETT alone out of the Sky' belly)

Plan was white metal casted parts (but I guess I'll do in resin by myself) with improoved details, complete iniectors body + fuel rails, better turned (than casted) turbos and PEtched radiator and IC.

Inspiration was http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c159/gionc/varie/R1engine-1.jpg

So far the start: I separate and filled all parts

I guess I'll re-take in hand since I have a '95LM and a Nismo 400 that wait to be mount, plus tons of racing and street stuff (included the famous Igor's Godzilla...)

Got to know about him on Scale Plastic Cars (http://www.SPC.org.uk/forum/) and I ordered 4 sets of the Package 2 he provides. Just paid the man and he will send them ASAP to me from the UK. His castings look promising. Gio's castings look better as of now, but he has a lot more experience in casting stuff I assume ;). I am very curious how Gio's engines will be and most likely will end up ordering some of those as well. Garage Diorama plans... Horror for the Curbside Models.

I will take pictures this weekend, if the engine packages arrived.

I know Aoshima made some RB26DETT as well, Jay! was selling one kit of it in Classifieds here.
