Nice.
That will be interesting to see the numbers this beast will put out. Can the tranny and drivetrain handle the extra power? Or is it being replaced/reinforced?

(Older Skyline naturally, of course it has the same tranny as the current Skyline!)

The car was at the GA Z club meet last week (in stock form) I am sure some of you meet Poweraddict. He is joining the GA Z Club so I am sure you will get to see it again. + Batlground has a great price on Dyno runs, best in Atl, Field trip for Dyno runs and to see the RBZ

by the look of the engine bay, looks like there is still room for some more mods. also, did anyone notice how much lower the engine sits in the bay? looks like a good 5-6 inches of lowering the center of gravity which in turn will help handling wont it?
the only concern i have is the new balance f/r. because the engine is longer(I6 vs V6) but it DOES look like it is pushed back far enough to the frewall.
O well, cant wait to see the finished product!!

according to Top Secret, the stock differential is not strong enough, so they swapped it out with Cusco. But the carbon fiber drive shaft is ok. Maybe you guys can test the differential..
Car looks awasome with RB26DETT btw!
