it can barely fit if you have a RHD Z32. But as my friend Brian likes to say "Sometimes no one has done it because it's a bad idea".

If you were here in japan I would say yes. Its been done many times here. Were they much faster? NO and it takes more money to build the rb than the vg in most respects.

I would be really suprised if it took more money to build up the RB than it would be the VG, simply turbo's are a large sum of cash for the V6 since you have to have two, and you can make a single turbo conversion on the RB.

As for putting an RB into a Z32, that would be a bad idea, not only is it going to be expensive, tight fight, it's going to ruin your handling.
