Don’t bother with the engine. Can transplant rb25 into it

Below 10k can get 2004-2006 honda accord 2.0 / 2.4

How much did you spend for overhauling the cefiro?

Bro, the only cefiro which can tansplate RB is the old A31 which used RWD. After that newer generation A32 above only FWD can only mod in V6 engine. For the original A31 half-cut in JDM got also RB20DET engine, no need headache rojak wiring all plug & play.

My mechanic place now got 2 Teana 2.5 V6, meter almost 300k~400k above only overhaul. From what i know all change the seal, gasket, piston rings, including timing chain around 4~5k settle (depending on owner choice can accept OEM, half-cut or purely new original Japan parts). Nissan V6 no need change timing belt at 100k, using timing chain you already save at least 2~3 times compare to the Mitsubishi V6. You can just ask how much proton/mitsubishi V6 timing belt change 1 time they charge outside nowadays. From my understanding is around RM1k (including parts & workmanship) for every 100k.

If 1k timing belt change is expensive, then should not even be considering such cars. Better ride motor.

That why if want to test V6 on a D-segment car the more better car mostly be Nissan, you can try ask different mechanic if choose both same V6 variant from Mitsubishi/proton or Nissan which is more better & cheaper to maintain overall.
