rb25 dd dependability.?

[mike0323]

Starting this build soon into an s14 chassis, crazy excited. I was just wondering if your car turns on everytime you want it too and always gets you point a to b,mpg etc.

Why wouldn't it?

These motors were daily-driven in Japan long before finding their way here.

BTW, read the rules... Post an intro.

Anyways its not like these motors or SRs were only driven in race applications over in Japan. They were just like our KA or VG30 except turbo (Yes I know the VG30 could be turboed as well). When you hear about horror stories of only making it 3k after a swap its because the owner did something stupid or they received a bad motor that was pulled because it was blown before being sent over here. I used to daily my RB25 for over a year before a stupid mistake took it out of service.

I daily drive mine, no issues. Only time I dont drive it is when it starts pegging 100* since I dont have AC.

I daily'd my rb25 hatch for almost 5 years with no issues besides the coilpacks being shitty. I had just about every bpu mod as well making 315whp stock turbo. Just make sure you have a nice e-fan/radiator setup, or you could even notch the core support and do a clutch fan setup.
