RB26DETT into Maxima(2000)?

RB26DETT(Skyline) into a Maxima(2000)
Is it Possible?

I was wondering if i could transplant a RB26DETT into my 2000 Maxima.
Would this be a wise descision or would it be better to stick with my original engine?

They say anything is possible with enough money, but I bet that's not what you want to hear.

The biggest barrier to your proposal is that the RB engines are made to be mounted longitudinally, for a RWD or AWD set up, which will be noticably incompatible with the FWD Maxima.

Does the 2000 Max have the VG or VQ engine? The new VQ is in a lot of hot cars, so you could just watch what becomes available for that engine...

And welcome to AF, BTW. I'm going to move this to the Maxima section for you.

i'd stick with the VQ30DE...just get a supercharger with a custom intercooler...smaller pulley..and NOS(if u really really have this urge to go fast)...

although the idea of slapping in a RB26DETT is just way too cool...this might work a little better with the Altima..since the car can support longitudinally mounted motors..
