Types of engines..... need some help..
you could make a 3.1L stroker engine, off the top of my head I think it's a L28 block + pistons, LD28 crank, L24 rods, 2mm head gasket. Take a look at http://www.zhome.com/ under "Modifications For More HP" for write ups on these engines This guy had 235RWHP from his one: http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4105

The Fast and The Furious
your not wrong there, I remember the beginning of the first one, three riced Hondas practically valve bouncing trying to keep up with a truck that was cruising, now that's funny. And they wrecked the best car in the movie - the charger texasz: There not that expensive, it's just where to find them in the US. Based on the prices here you are looking at $3500USD for the RB26DETT, $1400USD for the RB25DET and $800 for the RB20DET The people who have finished it say the rest of the mods to complete take about $1500 - $2000USD more but I don't know about that, mine doesn't look like it's going to cost that much, maybe $1000USD more to finish but I might have forgotten about something. Maybe Cyong might comment on that

OT: What car next??
I had a '90 300zx and they are fun, should have a LSD standard and they just stick to the road, pretty low and hard standard as well and look very cool. Are they that expensive over there? The 200zr would be good but it's the old shape, also being a Jap only model it might be hard to get parts. What about a 4L v8 Soarer, they should be about the same price as those others but will probably be auto though.

when are ZXT Half Shafts necessary?
is there less stress on the shafts at higher speeds as opposed to taking off? also if the shafts / diff / u joints were in line wouldn't it hold up a lot more? also also wouldn't there be less stress if you were running an lsd?

Acid bath
They drop your item in a bath of acid which dissolves any rust, they then remove it allow it to dry and apply a zinc phosphate to stop any surface rust before you paint it you can get individual parts acid dipped or the whole car, you will need to completely strip the item you intend to acid dip unless you don't want those parts anymore.

question bout R200
I've not heard of a R200 non LSD before but I could be wrong, your '78 should have a 3.54 R200 LSD
