Has anyone done any business with them? I am looking to get a RB26DETT with transmission and I noticed them in the newest issue of Nissan Sport Magazine.

They are located in southern California and it looks like they have done a lot of big projects.

Thanks in advance guys

McKinney Motorsports seem to be some good guys, they do alot of buisness with Jim Wolf. I am sure he can vouch for them. Call him and ask.

Yes we tuned their 240sx SR20DET on the ProEFI 48 Pin ECU They had their trailer camped out at our shop for about a week and we had the pleasure of entertaining their driver for the time..

Mack and Grumpy are great/honest people.

I have one of their tranny mounts in my 240! Nothing like a 2800lb car w/ a VQ 8-)

great. I have been e-mailing with Mack today. Seems very much on the up and up with what I am looking to do. I will probably be contacting you guys also about the ProEFI, if you all can help on that.

Im also talking with them about a possible SR20DET

Yeah if you are going SR definitely contact us about the ProEFI we've had amazing results with the SR with the 2871R.. If you want some dyno's I can email them to you if you PM me

Hell we had some amazing results tonight with the VQ35 8-) thats for a new thread though..

They're gonna charge you $25k. If i were you i'd def. go with a 2JZ instead of RB. RB26 parts are $$$$ and not always readily available as 2JZ ones.

yeah, I have been corresponding with him since yesterday. Im still not sure about the RB due to the weight of the motor. I am also considering an SR20DET at this point.

nope, not a 240Z, or a 260 or even a 280.

The project will be released to the public in the near future.
