I personally dont like v8's, But this thing looks like a real nice sleeper.

hmmm...different...

i reckon itd be even more interesting if it was a r32 with a bug catcher stickin out of the bonnet or something...

What fred said.

There's a few R31s running around with some sort of V8 in them

One Silhouette popped on the R31 forums a few months ago running a twin turbo 308, low 12's or high 11's out of the box I seem to remember, and a rather interesting engine bay shot

looks a bit short of clearance between the exhaust manifold and the front rails... :|

85% engineered! Yeah good one.... cant see any mention of any brake upgrade, and im pretty sure the stock aussie r31 brakes wouldnt be up to the task of matching the 5.7L V8!

He's probably selling it coz he got busted and cant get it engineered, or it was going to cost a fortune.

meh, if it was a alloy LS1 347ci then hey thats cool

dunno about a cast iron carby 350ci tho!

yea - ive seen a 350 chev in a vl commonwhore - same sort of engine bay size to the r31 that this one is in

Surely you've all seen the R33 with an LS1 in it??

"Interesting to note that with the LS1 + T56 combo the Skyline now weighs 10 kg's less than it did with the RB25DETT and it's normal 5 speed gearbox.

And, the gearstick apparently lines up perfectly with where it normally should be.

Now, I've always complained that an LS1 in a Silvia chassis is too big and heavy (and I still stand by that) but in a R33 Skyline, it's perfect! The engine bay was made for a long engine anyway and the car is medium sized so this engine suits it perfectly. The only downside is a crappier gearshift quality (the Nissan box is generations ahead) but otherwise, it's a great swap."
