sooo, it's a limo. how fast could it go. sure it'll be fast ona straight road, but handling would straight up be awful. creating that car would be an absolute waste of money. i can see it as a novelty, just cuz it would be a cool looking limo. but nothing more. why waste money changing the drivetrain and souping it up.

well obviously it wont handle too well. But i mean
compared to a lincoln limo or something, it'll school it in handling
/me ponders about how to drift a limo

Skyline drivetrain has HICAS (4 wheel steering) i believe

Your mistaken

It's an r32, not an r33

Here's an r32:


Here's an r33:


and here's an r34:



So you want to put a skyline rb26dett and awd drivetran in a 240sx? Why not make a skyline-limo then? The skyline has a hell of a lot more interior room/wheelbase, and it's a stronger chassis.

Plus the rb26dett doesn't fit in a s13 without modification to the firewall (it's too fucking big)
You could however fit a rb25det or rb20det in there no problem.

BUT, it's still a stupid idea. sorry :24k:

oh and you're wrong about the engines too, the Skyline GTR of each gen. came with those engines, but there are different versions of the skyline available:

if an lt1 (vette engine) fits in an s13, an rb26dett definately will. besides, its been done before heh.
thx for correctin me though :P i was more or less right about the engines. But hey, who wants a non-GTR skyline anyways? waste of money.
Theres several problems wiht a skyline limo. For one, you would have to import it through a comapny called motorex, and for an r34 it'll run you >$100,000USD. Then get it into canada since canada has really bad import laws regarding vehicles. Then you're stuck with right-hand-drive. It would be a novelty at first, but im sure after a while it would get annoying.

It *can* be done, but not without amazing expensive modifications.. Specificaly, adding a AWD drivetrain to a RWD car.

so in theory you could fit anything you wanted in there if you really wanted to spend that much money. you're already wrecking the car by making it into a limo

rb26dett in a s15 silvia


rb26dett in a s13 silvia


Those are both rb26dett's in silvias (Japanese 240sx) but they are not AWD. Think about the length of a silvia vs a skyline. An awd drivetrain means the engine would have to sit in the same position it would in a skyline in order for it to match up with the front axles, hence why the firewall would need to be pushed back. You can fit the TT in there if you make RWD because the engine can sit anywhere and you just have to make a driveshaft that fits.

You would be looking at a LOT higher cost doing the full conversion then buying an r34 from Motorex.
FYI: You can import skylines into canada that are 15 years old or more, the only problem is aircare and possible registration issues

Here's some reading material on RB26dett swaps in s13s:

Skotty, it can be done cheaper then that man. Like $3000 or so
Im planing CA18DET swap instead of SR20,
sr has weak valve train and is made of recycled pepsi cans :)
CA is iron block so it'll take more b00st
Cheaper too
