1967 Mustang with a Nissan Skyline Engine

mdvaldosta · June 16th, 2006, 02:10 PM

Apparentlthe ‘hero’ of this latest F&F film is a ‘67 Mustang fastback that eventually sports a Nissan RB26DETT, a twin-turbo 2.6-liter DOHC 24-valve straight-six from the ’holy grail’ of imports… a mid-’90s Nissan Skyline GT-R. This thing laid down 340 rear wheel horsepower at 7,300 rpm, enough to move it to a respectable 13.32 @ 109.83 mph in the quarter-mile....

I had heard something one time about Nissan and Ford/Mercury sharing motors?

Something about a modular v8

Only Nissan I can think of with a V8 would be the truck, but I had heard years ago that Nissan and Ford were doing some work??

Just putting in my 1 cent, not that it has anything to do with this topic, but that never stoped me before :-)

Nice information, dugg and shouted

I have heard of and seen videos of 900 hp+ racing (circuit and hill climb) skylines, but im am absolutely sure that they had different engines dropped in them, likely a 32v v8, while the skyline engine is very durable and modworthy it is only capable of a displacement of 2.8L, obviously not capable of maintaining 900hp for more than a minute or so

thats bs buddy, go do your research and they can displace more than 2.8 litres

this car has well over 1000 hp on the rb26det motor and if they arent strong how do they go a whole season on one motor without a rebuild?

DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!!! there should be NO part of an import in a 1967 Mustang or any Muscle car for that matter its disgusts me *blech*

Horseshoeing · July 24th, 2006, 05:20 PM

I like the Toyota Supa motor. I think it would make a great motor to replace the old I6 that ford put in the 64s-up to when ever.

ChrisJ · July 24th, 2006, 07:13 PM

I dont like it...

But you have to respect it...

And Nissan Skylines make rediculous power with their 6ers...

Harleys really are not super fast stock (in motorcycle terms)...They are a cruiser...But they can be made to be extremely fast...But they are by no means cheap...

I have ben around Harleys all my life...

Heres a few of my dads bikes...

BTW the bike under the cover is now a chopper (45 degree rake) with a 102 CI Billet motor...Dads newest project...

Horseshoeing · July 24th, 2006, 07:49 PM

Nice bikes. I to cheap to buy a bike like that. My bike is fast if I race a car. I just got my wife a 2002 883r that looks like new with 1513 miles. But got to stop talking about this here. We are whoring the forums. I could start a this up in the clubhouse.

88_StAnGeR_GT_TToP · August 13th, 2006, 02:37 AM

My Pops just got a brand new Harley 1200 Sportster Lowered and already being customized here and there. It definatley is quick and fast, but I had a stock 302 with just bolt ons that would smoke his bike starting from second gear on a stock T-5 with only 3.55's in the 8.8 . Not knocking the harley though. There badass.

Horseshoeing · August 13th, 2006, 07:54 PM

Wrong driver on the bike. Wrong track

88_StAnGeR_GT_TToP · August 13th, 2006, 10:35 PM

Ha.

PonyRunner · August 30th, 2006, 02:24 AM

i hate to say it man. i mean dont get me wrong i like the harleys and all but i have beaten just about everytype of harley they make. they might i repeat might get me off the line if the driver knows what hes doin but i will catch them once i hit second gear. the closest one to me was the harely 1300 sportser and it still wasnt much of a race. but my car is not exactly stock either......

Horseshoeing · August 30th, 2006, 06:46 AM

I could tear you up in Atlanta traffic. I can go in between the cars. Can't beat me if there not room for you.

PonyRunner · August 30th, 2006, 01:08 PM

true you got me there ya they dont do that in az its illegal.

Horseshoeing · August 30th, 2006, 02:28 PM

But they can. Racing is illegal too, but they do that too

69fastback · August 31st, 2006, 04:20 PM

That is sad they would put that engine in a classic stang, but I guess it's not much different than my classic stang engine in a Focus...lol. At least the focus has the ability to break 10s though.

drgnracin72 is right though. The Skyline engine can be pretty badass.

Horseshoeing · August 31st, 2006, 06:46 PM

I think it makes a better car if it was a I6 to start.
