I think the RB25 is better than the RB20. I chose the RB20 because its cheaper and its a bit easier to install in a 240. U need to do fewer modifactions than the 25.

 

oic i understand sound like a good reason ta me im 16 and i have to payfor all my stuff mt self lol its hard but i repect it more the the peplz who moms and dads just buy them what ever

i havent looked into the rb20 much yet ill check it out

 

rb20det.com will probably help u out

 

Price would really be the only benefit of the RB20. They canbe found for around the same price of SR20DET's.

yep, thats y i wanted to go for a RB20 other than the SR20. Only bad thing is aftermarket parts and OEM parts are kinda hard to find. I got a few people that can get me the parts though

 

Motorex.net will send out the vehicle to have the work done on it to pass all the EPA standards. It's done on a car by car basis, no blanket procedure can be done.

I own a 1989 240sx and realllly want to get the RB25DET in there. Problem is, it would not pass california emissions. And if I wanted to, I could dump the car on the EPA's lab and they'll hit me with a bill making it 100% smog legal. Mckinney motorsports quoted anywhere from $3,000 to 20,000 to get that taken care of.

Ouch.

 

Jewish nigglets? Watch your tone you sound fairly ignorant saying that..

 

my friend/emissions inspector rick from my old job could probably do it for a 100 dollar handshake. He really likes 240sxes, he has his own project if anyone has read my thread i placed when he tried to sell me his. When he sees a rb, he will be like...wow awesome, most likely abuse it on the emissions dyno ..jk lol

hes a pretty chill corrupted emissions guy, so dont hestitate to pursuade his easy mind with money.

Gainsville goodyear in manassas,va right off 29

 

if you can't persuade him wiht cash, you know what to do
*get on knees*

hahahaha sike, but then again, i had worries of homosexuality at goodyear. Lots of my ex co-workers there grab my butt for no real reason when im working on a car. ...oh im sorry for getting off topic. so yeah, talk to rick if you can and throw money in his face.

 

i talked a cop in jersey who knows his stuff about cars, in jersey your not supposed to put an older engine in a car that is newer than the engine. but there is a way to legally do it, he said its the bgigest pain in the ***...he put a chevy 350 in an rx7 2nd gen. i asked him about the rb20/sr20 swap. he told me there is no underhood inspection in nj. but would they do is put a tester on the hood that reads the sparks. since the sr20 if 4 cylinder it would have no reason to believe it wasnt the stock motor. however with the rb20, the 6 cylinders will clearly show up and alert the tester that it is a different engine. thats just NJ tho.
