Hey guys, I'm new around here. I seen this section so I figured I would show you my rb20 setup I run in my s13. As of right now it's fairly stock with a few mods.

The old setup- z31 t3, Q45 maf, SAFC2 Nothing but problems!



The current setup- wiring specialties tuned ecu, stock intake manifold(tweaked), z32 maf, 60 series t3/t4, custom external wastegate exhaust manifold, turbonetics 38mm wastegate, 450cc injectors, greddy timing belt, custom fabbed downpipe setup, blitz nur-spec catback exhaust, blitz SUS filter, blitz dual drive bov, walbro 255 fuel pump, greddy profec type s boost controller, aluminum intercooler piping, hybrid drift spec front mount intercooler, Top Hat Performance engine mounts, cusco catch can, blitz fatt controller, comp clutch stage 3 carbon/kevlar, comp clutch biller flywheel, koyo radiator, greddy radiator cap, nismo thermostat...soon to be added MLS head gasket and arp studs, solid lifter conversion, supertech valvetrain, and a set of Kelford 272 degree bumpsticks, 5 angle valve job, and full match port and polish.



I'll get some better picks up here in the next day or two.

In action at deal's gap

 

did you get the car like that, or did you convert the front end to JDM? cant tell much, but it kinda looks like the R32....?

 

Its a Silvia Front End, the non-projector headlamps. Probably from a Js model.
RB is looking good. Thanks for the set-up info.

 

dammit got, im at work and the Gov doesnt want me to look at you setup....

I seen pics of the outside last night. very layback appeal, thats what i like, easy to fix damage lol.

 

The headlights and front bumper are from a Q's model silvia. I've been building this car for a long time. I had a s13 sr20det in the bay before before I did this rb swap. I liked the sr swap, but NO four cylinder sounds this good!

 

ha ha ha hell yea... dude believe it or not lol, my KA-t for some reason with my cast manifold that i just put on sounds just like an rb20 with open dump tube lol.

 

What exhuast do you sport?

 

How much you got the swap for and where?

BTW: what other parts did you have to buy.

 

I bought a longblock from venus-auto and pieced the rest of the swap together. I performed the swap myself. A front clip has everything you need, but I strongly recommend buying/making a proper mount kit.

 

I forgot to ask, with that righteous set-up, what kind of power numbers are you making? Did you just cut the top pipe on the stock intake mani and weld it shut? looks good btw

 

The piping is all aluminum, the pipe you're referring to is replaced. I just recently moved to knoxville, unfortunately there is only 1 dyno here in town. I haven't had time to dyno tune it with my new tuned ecu. At 18 pounds on a safe street tuned A/F ratio, I'd say it puts down at least 325-350 rwhp.

 

I have none, just open tube... im not welding up my exhaust until i get the H1C on, full 3in from V-band on back

little sound byte...................... ok ok ok maybe its not that close to it but i remember doing a rb20 swap and it sounded like this a bit with open dump tube

Note: sync is way off
