I'm just curious on what engine you would swap in your 240sx if you had the money. Also, anyone know how and where I can find information on rb25 swaps? Thanks

I have the SR but I would love to have the RB

For info check unstable-hybrids.com (http://www.unstable-hybrids.com) and they have some info on projects that they are working on and engine info also <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

fully worked naturally aspirated KA25DE... since the GA16DE won't fit <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

Otherwise a VQ35DE (oh dear god).

Well this company called Akemine Engineering swapped a RB-25DET an stroked it to 2.6liter(RB26DET) in to a 180sx (your hatch back) That car was ungoddly fast It still maintained it's drivability, cornering, and well was just badass to drive. I think that a RB-25 DET would be a good choice but it took a considerable amount of work to get it in there to maintain the cars balance.

seriously if i had money lkike hillary banks i would go with the rb.

i would love a rb20det but to much fab work for now &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> &nbsp;dont feel like doing all that


in all honesty i still want a ca18det over a sr but due to its rareity i might go sr but who knows til the time comes.

the ca just looks so sweet plus i like its characteristics beter
