WRONG
the RB20 is far from crap. it's just less desireable because it starts out with as much HP as the SR.
nevermind the fact the bottom end is bullet proof or the valvetrain can rev to the heavens

the rb20 is as cheap as the ca18, it has 6 instead of 4 cylinders, it can rev to 8 grand (right?), and its bottom end is bullet proof. the only drawbacks are a small aftermarket and weight. why isn't it by far the best of of these four choices?

RB engine

THE RB ENGINE IS KING

RB is not hard to swap (RB20DET and RB25DET) as some claim, plus it is virtually bullet proof, can handle huge amount of boost and can create over 1000HP. It ways almost the same as the KA and is capable of 12's in the 1/4 on stock boost......I have one in my 240, let me tell ya, they're bad ***.

You have inspired me to one day do an rb swap. You could have changed my life forever!

RB25DET

Hey MONKEY!!!

Spitz - the RB swap did affect my handling. I now feel that I have better control over my car and cornering is a lot more fun. Want more info, hit me up on AIM same name....
