Hey mate, im 21 so hoping an apprenticeship should be easy to get. What kind of trade should i be looking at? general mechanical (is the something more specific to highend cars?), welding/facricating, spray painting, not sure what to go with, what would be a good starting base to work from? Thanks Cheyne -

Thanks for the advice mate To go the route of an engine swap to a rb26 would 10k cover all the cost?....buying the engine, having it install with the microtech etc (i dont want to stuff around with standard comp), would the gts4 gearbox be able to stand up to the extra strain of a 26 or would i need a gtr box? More $$$ Like you say you dont want to be revisting things you have already modified and spend $$$ on because your not happy, thats why im on here, want to get in right the first time Thank again for your help
