"Special" EVO Build

Well we were thinking and since 6 > 4 then 6 must obviously be better than 4. I think you can use the picture to come up with any logical assumptions. Stay tuned for updates.

Yea, it's gonna take A LOT of work, especially being able to fit that engine with the transmission behind it. Interested to see all the custom work.

so you are going to eliminate the two most special things about the evo? the most tunable engine on the planet, the 4g63. and one of the stoutest AWD drive trains ever produced.

Well the rb26 and it's tranny are proven for sick power gains plus they would be able to use insane drivetrains like OS Giken, hollinger, etc...

It will be a very interesting project!

ahh that is strong. If you guys are able to transplant the RB26 in there yet some how maintain the AWD (perhaps steal some Skyline GTR AWD bits?) this car will be sick.

EPIC FAIL if you want an rb26 get a skyline. And that v8 evo is the most pathetic waste of a car. I hope all these projects are salvaged/wrecked cars and not good donors wasted.
