SR20 it,Only way!
lol
not much work really if you call taking an engine out and putting an engine in not alot of work, only thing you need to modify for it to sit right is the sump you need to cut the diff housing out of it, and weld it up, but also making sure it doesnt hit the ARB/front subframe but also leaving enough of a size for the extra oil the 26 uses due to the twin turbo set up, so ya cant take too much out of the sump either, little bits at a time,
then you need to wire the engine loom onto your existing loom and also fit a gtr ecu, you'll need an rb25 gearbox too to keep it rwd which im sure you want, as the rb20 one wont last too long with the rb26. and with the 25 box you then need to work out a way of converting your speedo to read from the sensor as its a cable on the rb20.....
thats about it really, well what i can think of at this time of the morning after a night of work...
thanks for the info guys hope to get started ina few weeks cheers.:D
Mick I'd just sr20 it.
big heavy lumps of yokes rb26's
no wonder they break gearboxs
as for all rb's they take up too much space
for two more unecessary cyclinders.tut tut:D
