if u know what u r doing it is not that hard,or u can do it easy way, take jada's supra and swap it.
and it's not realy one ps. in chrom, it's about 4-6 ps. and if u do detail painting it's look very good. i did it on moust of my juda cars.

Re: Jada Trueno Question

Well, I don't know if you got the answer you were looking for in that reply (no offense Dubs), but the Jada cars have no underhood detail under the plastic "engine" peice, so you'd either have to make wheel wells and a firewall, or just cut a hole in the stock "engine" and replace it with what you want.

Re: Jada Trueno Question

I love having a true block, because then you can go all out and turbo it, and throw in the emission lines and whatnot, but hey, detail painting a beautiful technique, I for one can't do it, but it's still beautiful.

yea. having experience with my maisto 350z engine, (trying to install a cold air intake), i really think it's better with a block. cuz when i installed the cold air intake, i had to cut up the whole engine piece so now it's fucked up. so i got pissed and ripped out the cold air intake. so that's why it's better.
