neither one of us knows anything about the others background, so lets just talk at zdayz and we'll see how stupid each other is.

ahhh actually you started it right here, you automatically thought i was a noob. assumption is never a good thing

the funny thing is, it doesnt usually take someone with years of full-time experience building cars to chime in and mention that a RB in a Z33 is a waste of time regardless of the power it can handle. and that fact right there is proof that you have a long way to go before you can call people "stupid ***" just because they reject your stupid *** ideas.
dont call me a stupid ***. noob.

ahh, sounds like your job is fun, however none of these last social interactions were directed towards you, it seems more people on this forum want to call you ignorant or dumb because of an idea thrown out there, too many people automatically assume that a crazy idea wont work. ive seen much crazier swaps and things than one of the best motors to come out of japan go into a fairlady, which has a vq motor designed by a french guy. The members here seem to enjoy ragging on peoples ideas without thought when encouragement should be given or just conversation why you personally wouldnt.

Also its a smaller liter but its a inline 6, just like the supra motor its a 3.0 liter that holds a record for 806 whp stock block! Skyline is nissans icon why not use the skyline motor and be different and very fast.

"Big single turbo?" So you can make more power at redline while making LESS in the low-to mid range compared to the stock RB? Do you want your car to be fast or do you want it to be a dyno queen?
If you're so desperate to do an RB swap, go buy a S13 body with no motor for cheap and start from there. There's at least some documentation with that swap, and you're starting with a car that's significantly lighter than the Z. Why destroy a perfectly good, NEW car with an awesome motor? Does the phrase "dick swinging exercise" have any meaning to you?
You're the same guy who was also talking **** about how your friend with the Civic would make us "DE" guys look stupid. I suggest you stop doing ricer math homework, put away the Super Street rags, and try and LEARN something, and that starts with listening to others. You're right: it would be unique, it would be different. But the cost of the swap ALONE (without even modding it for more power) would cost you enough to buy another Z. So now you've got a 70k car that's slower than my '03 with the "measly" DE.
People here have loads of experience trying to make their cars faster. They've paid for it with their blood, sweat, time and credit cards. So forgive them if they're a bit testy when some know-it-all snot nose acts as if he has all the answers, when in reality, he has yet to even begin to comprehend the magnitude of his plan.
