Hey, To all those conversion junkies out there - which engines are easiest to fit into a VL? I know that the RB20/25's are an easy fit seeing that the RB30E is in the same family. I'm just wondering, what about other decent turbo motors, such as Toyota's 1JZGTE, or RB26DETT? Any others you know of, please let me know. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

RB26DETT has been done. 1jzgte has also been done. Talk to TurboFLASH on these forums.

I was speaking to Mike Vine in Brisbane, he is a specialist's in turbo and management! I was going to put a 2jz out of a supra or a 1jz but they will cause future problems. I don't know why, but he is the specialist. Stick to the Nissan series. You could rebuild your bottom end and put a RB26DETT head along with all wiring and **** like that, then you have a RB26!
