I'll be spending about... oh 4.5k and laying down a consistent 300whp (turbo + mildly built motor) which is just fine for me.. that's after a crank balance and blue print to improve the revving ability, stronger internals, port n polish, valves n springs, and you get the idea
and the motor was designed for the car. there are more factors involved than just the weight of the motor. it 'fits'.. I know the RB has it's great mounts and all that but a KA looks so at home in a 240sx engine bay

I respect you neme but I still don't think your going to to stay in that $4500 ballpark your talking about and pull 300whp out of your KAT and for just a bit more than that price tag I can gurantee almost if not 300whp out of the RB with nothing internal touched.
As far as how the KA looks in the engine bay vs how the RB looks my RB looks like it belongs there.
contrary to Panges I do not think the weight difference feels that noticable and it definitely does not overly affect the handling in a negative way.
