Big lover of the JDM here.. I've got an R34Gtt, RS4 Stagea and a '69 Datsun 1600 (510). And just sold a 33Gtst. Have had heaps of cool Datto's over the years though, kinda moved on from them now coz their getting too exy so moved on to importing cars direct from japan.

i stay in florida so theres alot of little hype beast puerto ricans that pretend to know their shit but who all drive d15 civics. lol. i was bullshitting on the rb26 because i have priced it out and done the mechanical complexity and theres alot more things that you'd have to do to mount that engine and get everything connected compared to an rb25. you can use the same crossmember and theres not the second turbo to worry about. overall i'm thinking i'm gonna stack for an rb25 swap but i'm gonna try to do it myself with help from a few kids that know their shit too. save my money and smoke blunts in the process. but i'm talking like 6-8 months from now AT LEAST before that ball gets rollin. on the engine part at least. not on the car part. i would fuck with lotus epsrit v8 though. but that's a british sports car.
Wouldn't a GM Ls1/Gen 3 be heaps cheaper for you to swap into it? That's what all the drift boys down under are fitting into their silvia's these days, much much lighter than an rb25 and put out the power of an Rb25det neo engine but without needing a turbo. So less weight up front with same power and I recon cheap for anyone in the US to do. Just a thought.

My money tree? Hahaha man i am piss poor broke and unemployed right now... I've just made a few smart investments buying houses and selling them making enough profit to buy a car outright each time and have enough for a deposit on the next house. My missus is the brains behind it all really.

Damn! maybe I should stop complaining about 3.75 a gallon
3.75 ain't the end of the world, it helps keep those assholes who can't afford their SUVs and trucks off the roads somewhat but the reason gas is more expensive in other nations is because they have a universal health care system most likely and much of that is put on gas tax.

Any1 like hellaflush cars ?
Coming from someone who races, not on streets but on tracks, completely stupid.
Even for daily driving, not even cool.
I believe in lowered cars, but not hellaflush or tucked or stanced.
Lowered cars are nice but not when they have rediculous camber.
