SR or an RB ?
which one would be the best and how hard is it to do?

srslider

neither are very hard and it really depends on what you want to do with the car. Every one has there opinions! I'm sure you'll get more feedback but you can see what I went with.

Let the battle begin!

SR lovers say SR
RB lovers say RB

Jon Powell says get whatever will make you happiest.

Best would be RB26, thats why it was put in the Skyline GTR and how hard...WAY hard.

i would like to get the best bang for my buck, street/strip/drift. and i dont wanan get to involved in the engine swap, id like it to be somewhat easy

did you try searching, there are several posts on what people think of each engine

street/strip/drift.....why not just ask for a million bucks also. Making a vehicle that will excel at all of those is about a ridiculous as asking US what motor would make YOU the happiest.

You gotta pick one area to excel in. Street is gonna have suspension that is too soft(generally) to drift well, drift suspension is gonna rattle the teeth right outta your head on the street, and strip is not gonna corner well drifting OR daily driving.

You need to decide what your goals are with the car...the directoin you are going....THEN decide on a power plant & chassis to work with.
