Umm, guys? Top Secret has known that an RB26 would fit into an FM car for a while now. Unfortunately, with that comes weight. Iron v. Aluminum block. Good in a straight line, but adds weight to an already porky car. And kiss your auto A/C good bye.

i was reading that magazine the other day at the book store. Looks amazing and that turbo is freaking huge! haha it would be awesome to see a swap like this come out onto the market! I would be afraid to see the price though!
