Some good reads I found by searching for "Swap" and "RB26" :

Sure if you want to go with an overly sophisticated electronics setup and an under built, poorly engineered motor.

There are three swaps that are worth a damn and can claimed to be more then a novelty swap (IE, sr20, rb26..etc) in the z32. LSx, VH45 and the VG.

If I had a Z32, I would swap in a Geo G10 motor...

I guarantee I would be the first (and last) to do it.


1.0L of fury! Maybe I could terbeau it?

Nismo I don't think there would even be enough power to MOVE that Z with that tiny engine lol

IMHO Do a proper VG30DETT swap. Its one of the simpler swaps out there and you can buy kits to do it as well (or an entire JDM front clip) And theres a huge aftermarket for the engine as well. Also you don't have to fab up anything!
