Te cars not for sale but the engine is... I'm looking to get the R34 RB26 just because it's a newer engine but if I don't end up selling then I'll just part it all out...

For te front bumper...lol. Well yes it makes it look like batmans car but I took it off and put on the pig nose with lip on. Now for those that are in IL my car is with a bumper so if you see me beep your horn...lol

Yes it was very much worth it and I had fun with it while I had the swap and would've kept it but I was running into some issues with the motor.
If your looking to do the swap I'm sure you'll be very happy just be prepared to spend some cash. If you need a downpipe I have one and 2 MAFS also. If not well good luck and I'm sure you'll be happy with it

Your not sounding dumb your just wanting to know if it'll be worth it. I think it's worth it but its expensive and the swap not all that easy but if you have all the right tools then it becomes very easy.
You want to make sure you go with the RB25det trans though.
Just remember that parts are very hard to come by and can take awhile. If your looking for a downpipe I have mine for sale.
Let me know if you have any other questions
