agreed, between you (mr massive) and nismoid, $2000 is a pretty good guesstimate with getting good prices on all parts.. but i am having trouble sourcing them all, and i need the car quick.
And the rb20 isnt such a bad engine, mate has a r32 gtst and it goes pretty good, bit more powerful then then rb25de... not as torquey i'll admit but, for the cost factor, i can get the rb20det, including turbo and manifold for $500 (good condition motor, not stuffed) off a friend.
So thats why im considering this option, im not fussed with getting the best spec'ed engine. So after that i'd need engine loom for rb20det, ecu, intercooler and piping ofcourse, exhuast from manifold back. and thats it right?
Would the R33 turbo dash work with the rb20det anyone? and is there any complications i dont know of?
Thanks everyone again
