Yes gtr engine. Drops in with some modifications to make everything work. If you’re going to spend money on a FI TT Kit with supporting mods. Vr38 makes the most sense.

I don't think this would be route I would take but I'm curious if anyone on the forum has successfully done this and what the final out-the-door costs for all of it was.

It's been done on two drift cars. A Standalone is a must have.

Don't know if he's on here, search for member "bbrblackwell" on Instagram, he has a SC'd 2014 Nismo, now getting a VR38. Last I checked, engine assembly is done, surgery scheduled for May.
