might cop a rb20

 

[keepzdasneakz]

SR20 FTW.

 

[josebronx]

yea but I dont like the idea of paying $1800+ for a 4 cyl. engine

rb

 

[keepzdasneakz]

How much could you get an RB20 for? By the way, what models did the RB20 go in? Just skyline GT-S's?

 

[josebronx]

The total amount of cash spent on both swap is similar but theres more work involved with an RB engine. There are some fitment issues with the RB20 (rubbingagainst fire wall, have to buy conversion brackets etc.), the SR20 is plug and play.

RB20 goes from around $900-$1200, they came in R31s, some R32s, Z31s, laurels

I really want a RB25 tho

RB25's really aren't that expensive, the thing is finding a good one that hasn't been abused. My bro threw on into his 95' 240, nothing butproblems from the beginning.. Spent near 15k putting the car together and sold it only for 8k,
Now he's working on getting a 2JZ

A friend of mine installs this but it's mainly used for bumpers opposed to full body usage.

It's super strong but a sharp item or key will puncture it with enough force. It's great to prevent rock chips and other minor scratches

My old car sounded like a truck regardless. KA24DE is a truck motor.
