I was recently talking to some kid i know that i am going to be dropping in a RB20DET skyline engine into a 1987 300ZX , he told me not to waste my money and just put a evo III engine into a 1st gen eclipse GSX. He said it would be a shit load easier as well as a shit load faster. I think the evo III engine would be a a simple drop in, right? 280hp seems pretty sick. With AWD. How fast do you guys think that would be. Im assuming it would be pretty easy to get it up to 350HP or so? If it is possible to put in these engines, what is the reliability , i get mixed reveiws on mitsu's people either say they are very reliable or always broken.
Has anyone seen this done or have a car like this? If so how about wiring this stuff up, is it just like stock?
