I was just wondering if the new skyline motor will be a straight swap into the z and if not is it possible and what transmission would you have to use since the skyline trans will be a 7 speed. I want to go f1 but i would like to wait for someone to get the new skyline gtr and wreck it so i can buy the engine and do a swap if its going to be possible and not to crazy expensive to do. I just figured the car would be reliable as hell with that engine and would be able to create crazy horsepower numbers. Im just going on what i heard a tt version of the vq was going to be in the skyline.

I think he means the VQ based motor from the 2008 GTR...

 

I'll tell you what. Get the engine/tranny combo from the 2008 GTR, bring it over to SGP and see if it fits. Then you can tell us.

If you want a crazy Skyline motor swap, you may look into the RB26DETT from the R34. I heard that it drops w/out problems into a late 60's Mustang hatchback, could be done overnight...

 

dude, use some common sense. How the hell are we supposed to know this answer? We don't even definitively know what exact motor is going to be in in the car and what power it will make. Shoot, NOTHING on it has been confirmed other than it will be all wheel drive.

Use some common sense, please.

 

Whos know...
