Are you hoping to find a date code correct 173 for your GTR?

Personally I wouldn't waste time and money on another block & head (save that the engine you have is still serviceable) unless you are extremely lucky enough to find the original engine for your car.

Alternatively, throw a 202 in it and enjoy the extra horses.

Or a hot 186 with a nice head and carby
