SEARCH.

in short, to save you some time: yes, with an assload of custom fabrication and lots of money.

It doesn't matter who you can or can't beat, just that you enjoy doing what you do.

Anyhow, there are several threads in chat and tech which are active at this moment that discuss rb motor swaps.

From what we've been told, the RB swap isn't as difficult as it's made it out to be. Nismos14 (if I got the nick right) is starting on one right now, and hopefully will be providing us with some juicy bits of goodness on how it is. Check out Fresh Alloy's forums, they ahve a full forum dedicated to this topic.

If you're just looking for cheap and easy speed, you may want to look at a domestic v8. If you care to stick with your 240, you will be easier turboing the KA that is already in it, or swapping out for an SR. The RB is a great motor, has great potential, but is a trickier (albeit not impossible) swap. I think there are three forum members already running this motor.

I'm smack in the middle of this swap right now, it's not impossible or too expensive. I have everything to finish the swap and I didn't pay more than 2K. I have a thread going, check it out. It's titled I got my clip today
