rb25det good for daily driving?
Ok if i had an rb in my zenki, would it be good for daily driving coz i don't plan on getting another car after i do my swap.. Those of you with the rb engine in it or have had friends that have it, pls give me your opinion on it. I would really like to think and rethink of what I'm finally going to do with my zenki.

I drive mine daily and have not had any problems yet. I have had the car on the road for almost a year and not one problem as far as dependability. But just keep in mind if you do your swap there is always that chance of something going wronge and if this is your only car there could be delays and you not having a car for a short time. it took my car 5 days to get back on the road full time(due to some parts) But as far as the RB for a daily driver I say go for it, I did and not one regret.

Youre car is so bad ***, you are so lucky, did Mckinney do your install, how much did you spend, your i/c piping where did you get it? where did you get your motor from?Anywayzz, I envy you!
Anyproblems w/ the p/s, when doing your install, have you ever dragged it?

what is your idea of daily driving...
to put into perspective: my motorcyle is running a race only clutch with race springs....and heavy shock tranny fluid...it takes all I have to pull the clutch at stop lights....but I love it because when the light goes green I can drop the happer and smoke almost anything on the street.........

Judge: My idea of daily driving is just that daily driving. For the last 9 months it was the only car I had so it was used for everthing everyday. At a minimum it gets 60 miles a day. If the car is put together right it will not fail.
