SCREAMS!! yeah jonnies orange/black one... its weird cos he just got it tuned by dr drift.. so should have gone better than that.. 240kw and 800nm .. as far as expense is concerned i think hes spent around 10 including the purchase of a half cut so it sounds like a relatively simple conversin and its no too much of a tight squeeze |

Theres a difference between a reliable engine and a grenade QUOTE(Nichy @ Oct 10 2008, 01:29 PM) [snapback]1282985360[/snapback] you can most likley but all the mounts and shit for it .... most convertions into silvia's have kits made You just use the R32 crossmember and RB engine mounts. Piece of piss. |

What drugs are you lot on - I think Ryan is the only one here who has any fucking idea what hes on about. You don't need a "kit" to put a rb into a silvia. And you don't need lots of power to "chirp 3rd" lol.. Stiff suspension and crap tyres make it easier to do... I just don't get you blokes some days..... Its like a war of the tossers lol. my ke70 bakes third in the wet....so beat that
