It is a nissan TT engine. Good luck getting it to fit, anything is possible I guess. The conversion will be anything but cheap though. I would just drop an LS1 in it and be done.

LS1's are very rare and expensive in my country. Do you think i will be easy to fit in the RB26 into the 944? I plan to do it myself for a engineering course so I might have all the equipment I need.
