Can anyone tell me what this Limited Edition Badge means on this motor. Checked the block number and its not N speck or what ever it is. (yes Im a not too car minded female - deal)

It has Nismo 555c injectors so I have discovered, dont really know much of the internals, Hubby suspects it has cams but dont think that has anything to do with this "Limited Edition" Badge.

I guess it is possible a previous owner decided it looked cool and just stuck it on there.

any info would be appreciated.

Looks like a stick-on from previous owner.

If it was say a nismo edition, it would have a plaque on front the cam cover with info, build number, type etc.

[Tritty]

Yeah, nothing, plaque wise or stamp wise suggests anything. Im wondering if a workshop that does up engines maybe put it on after working on it. We have only just last night started having a good look at her and we are quite surprised at what we are finding so far, It is deffinately not stock. Maybe someone knows of a motor builder who may have put this badge on it??

I wish I knew more about the cars history.

I recognize that badge from somewhere though I can't quite recall where. It doesn't have anything to do with your 26 though I don't think.

[GTRsean]

From a holden??, it comes to mind.

[Tritty]

Yeah it does look a bit holden, especially with the orange too. Funnily enough the seat covers are V8 Supercars ones. lol

I think I remember hearing a VL Calais Turbo has the same motor as a skyline (correct me if im wrong) maybe the motor was out of a holden?

RB30ET.

The badge is probably just a bit of "wank factor"!

[Tritty]

K. Yeah someone told me a VL does not have a GTR motor in it.
