Update: still love it, currently at Radwood Detroit
installed gen-you-wine Sparco hood pins from a new year's game box past the day before Radwood and that made all the difference in the world knowing my hood wouldn't fly open on the highway.
Wish I could have made it last night.
In reply to AxeHealey :
You and me both, there were 700+ cars and the venue was amazing
Any chance you were driving up i75 in Kentucky today? If not, I saw another sweet skyline!
Nope I have not been on 75 in Kentucky for a very long time
finally put it on the lift just to look. Only concern was o2 wiring touching downpipe. Little dirty because i drive it, but verified that there's no rust anywhere.
That's (part of) why it sounds so good, they took the trouble to make the downpipe equal-length.
Yuuuup. And it sounds so damn good. I drove my 57 chevy today with the cammed LS1 and I never thought I would say this but the rb26 sounds better than any LS I've ever heard. Like I knew it was good before I bought it from video games but I didn't know it was THIS GOOD
Love that you’re still loving the Skyline. :)

It gives me a funny feeling and then I start investigating the cheapest route to twin turbo inline six sounds
Apparently there's another RB26-swapped GT-S in the US.
Pffft, doesn't even have a clear timing cover...
mine's technically a GTS-T but I asked the mods to change the title once so I figured whoever changed it got it close enough for something I didn't pay for. It was a turbo RB20 to start with. not sure if we said this yet but the engine numbers point to 1994 GTR. which is probably where the brakes, sway bars, back seat, door cards, and all the other GTR stuff came from.
soon I'll get it out and wash it up and start driving it again. the road salt is about washed away and as long as we stay winter storm free it'll be ok.
I fix the title.
You are awesome
