i wish i would have went this way, i have a friend that really tried pushing me this way(he is a mechanic and fabricator) but I said it is like taking two steps back smaller displacement and old technology. However all of the grief I have had with my set up makes me wish I went the RB route at least i would have something a little different. Small word of advice no matter what condition the RB is in have it rebuild and a Nur spec oil pump put in, too many guys I know lost RBs to oil pumps that failed 
Plus, The RB in a stanced sedan would be totally awesome.
Ask for the choice of procharger, I have a connection for them. The Vortech is a great way to go as well. The procharger just offered me a wicked price and simplicity.

Yea for sure, I kinda love the old tech. It's so easy which makes me want to go down that path. Better on gas (as if it mattered lol) more reliable, sounds awesome will put down a tonne of power for less money, 5spd drifto and I can pull it off all said and done for under 5k which I'm all for because that's how much I'd be looking at just buying the Turbo or Supercharger kit.

Trust me you should do a rebuild if you buy an R32/R33 RB26 the oil pumps are prone to failing and a rebuild will be $$$$$$$. Or I guess cross your fingers and hope the oil pump lasts
It sure would be cool though!!!

^It makes sense for more reasons than that.
The LS engine is one of the best power/weight/size/$ balances ever, plus has an amazing after-market. Stock they're great, N/A modded they're fantastic, and boosted they're unbelievable... that being said, I've always liked the idea of an RB in a sedan. Something about RB swaps on Nissans I've just always really liked.
Kinda the same thing with the IS-300 w/2JZ-GTE.... it just belongs
