I have a friend who was in the honda scene. His car got stolen and now he is looking for a new car. Hes looking at 240s but dosen't know what swap he wants. He asked me what the difference is of putting a S13 red top vs s13 blacktop vs s14 blacktop into a s13 hatch I'm still a newbie so idk. In terms of hp, torque, reliability, and build potential. Eventually he is looking to build which ever motor he swaps in to around 500-600 rwhp. What would you suggest.
P.S. I did search for a long time and came up with nothing :(

that's a lie.
i went to google, typed in 'difference between SR20 engines' and got this link as the first result was this link.

if you admit that your 'friend' was actually 'you', that'd be cool. nice try trying to play it off.

I found that in 2 seconds too. And if you read it my questions are not answered in that post. Its a bunch of random unorganized information with every other person saying the post before them is bs and a bunch of flaming. There are people who talk about the build potential but they say 300-350hp, my friend is looking for 500-600. Not to mention pretty much everything any one said there someone else says is bull.
that's a lie.

First, no my friend is not me. I already have an s13 and he dose not. Second that link shows the differences in the engine construction wise. It has nothing about hp, torque, or build potential. And explains nothing about putting an s14 black top in an s13 vs and s13 red or black top. Next time you wanna be a dick maybe you should read your own link and get your shit straight :/

well what you want is to be spoon fed.There is useful information in the link i gave it to you, dont expect it to be lined up just for you. Thats not what you'll get in zilvia. No one is going to give you everything to meet you desired hp mark, look at other member's builds and see how they did it. I mean if you really expect that much given your friend might as well have someone build it for them since they/you cant search for shit. end of thread.

if you can afford to build it to 500-600 whp, then it doesnt really matter which you choose

being lazy is one thing. lying and saying you searched gets more cruelty involved. its 20 year old info no secrets. so being hard on him now will avoid even dumber questions later.

They are actually the exact same engine. Nissan just ran out of red paint.

This.
Besides, if you've got enough money for that, might as well just swap in a ls motor and have much more potential.
