Default GTR engine in Z350

is it possible to do? how much does the GTR engine go for? seems like if people are building their engs and getting turbos and spending 10-20 k, maybe cheaper to get the GTR engine?? curious

I'm sure this will someday be done.
Maybe you should research how much the motor costs first. Also think about the fact that GTR is awd. This is a project that will someday cost a shop $50k and a couple of years in r&d, but it will be badass. It won't, however, be done to save money...

Yeah, that's true. I'm sure there are other bad-*** engine "transplant" projects out there... You're probably right though, it'll be cheaper to build our engine up and get a nice TT.

0jiggy0, what are you talking about? 2 am YOUR time in east coast some, 11pm here in SD, get your time right!

Not bashing but why are u asking a question like this? If u have that amount of $ u could do a SICK full built TT faster then a GTR. If u wanna be diff then maybe buy a scion.
