Imo I'd rather have any thing over an sr even an rb20, I chose it over it s14 sr which I had both at the time, sr's are over rated. Ls in the long run would be cheapest and most drivable for tons of power wise

1jz Head flow 210 Cfm RB25 Head Flow 240 Cfm Stock to stock yes a 1jz has more power bc it also has twin turbo. Exactly what does a 1jz have that a RB doesnt? *Ability to rev? No *Broader power band? No *Displacement? No *A following of people like yourself that try to dis RB's because they feel like the jealous poor cousin? ... An Rb is just as good or better.. |

*You can safely rev out a 1J to 7700-8000RPM, RB25 you're sitting at what 7300-7500? *I would say a sequential turbo system will have a much broader power band than a single T28 turbo. *Displacement? You stupid? *Poor jealous cousin that has a better motor stock for stock Not to mention the R154 is a much better transmission than a RB25 trans, coil packs that actually work under high boost and the 1J heads don't flood with oil either and don't need a 1,500.00 oil pump when going high HP. Peaking 25psi untuned is not the same as running 28psi. |

If I was untuned I wouldn't have a engine when I "peaked" that 25psi. |

Why does every "SR vs RB" thread turn into a pissing match between Orangevirus and the rest of Zilvia???
Just give it up dude. You love your 2.0L engine that weighs as much as 2 SR's and a CA put together, good for you. We get it. When you put it down on paper there are a zillion arguments against it. GET OVER IT!!! |

But it is pretty shitty. If you have a choice of 20 or 25 you are a moron for choosing 20. And if you did not want it escalated and end up losing your ass trying to defend yourself just don't post back after your initial argument.

The RB20 isn't held higher than the SR by people due to several reasons. One being it's availability of parts and the likelihood of having to rebuild one was a factor. SR's these days are Japan's trash but that clearly hasn't effected the demand for SR's vs RB20's.Anyway, nobody is saying that you cannot find parts, it's just that aftermarket companies support the SR a lot more than the RB20. With a business sense, that says a lot about the RB20. Why aren't flowing with support compared to the SR. Why are SR parts generally cheaper and easier to find? Interchangeability? The time/cost that it takes to get the RB20 in a S-Chassis also outweighs that of a SR. The even funnier part about RB20's is that there are a lot out there that nobody that is smart with their money would want. When people "hate" on you, it's because we really believe you're not as bright as you believe you are. |

I never said that the RB20 is held in a higher regard. The only point I have been trying to get across is don't knock it before you try it and don't take everyone's words as fact. Understandably alot of people hate the engine and don't understand it. I don't feel that I made a mistake choosing the Rb20. that is something none of you people understand. I did not make a mistake. I made a different choice then you. |

You sound like a dweeb that is trying to argue tried and proven paths.
Truth is that you're not going to win the argument against a world full of people who are satisfied with their choice. You've gone on the record to be a RB20 elitist (that doesn't like the R chassis, ironically) and everybody's been flaming you for it. The reason why not many people go the RB20 route says a lot. Since you wanted to compare it to sweets, the RB20 is like the pistachio flavor. People have chosen a proven, abundant, and popular chocolate flavor without trying pistachio because 1.) it tastes better 2.) probably costs less 3.) the unknown outweighs the potential marginal benefits 4.) when they do, they typically regret it. You on the other hand, are trying to defend your mistake which makes you look dumber and dumber with each defense. |

1. I hate pistachio's. 2. I'm merely defending my choice, not a mistake in my book. I'll choose the hated engine every day of the week, build it and have plenty of fun with it, whether it be a Rb20, CA18, D15 honda engine, or some other "garbabe." I am more then satisfied with my choice. Mainly because the engine isn't half of the shit you people said it was. because I'm not doing it to be a sheep, I'm doing what I want. If you can't accept that, fine. That's the fun in it after all.. |

2. You "defend" it in every thread you enter for the most part it seems. Somehow the conversation gets turned to RB20 even if it had nothing to do with RB20 in the first place. Also how does choosing a better engine make you a sheep? That is just a moronic statement.

I'm not saying you post in coilover threads to get a RB20 but, for example, someone asks KAT or SR? Your answer would be RB20. OK cool but that was not one of the options, then it turns into these big ass arguments. If you posted "here is what I think and why", then leave the thread and don't come back, your opinion will still be there, for whom ever to consider, and for people to counter or defend but you don't end up looking like you always end up.

You posted a thread asking something that has been covered plenty of times. I just googled sr or rb and came up with ALL the info I need to make an educated decision. I know you're just 19 and all, but let's practice this thing us big boys call "make up your own mind and decision". |

I can say the same to all you zilvians, Leave your opinion on the engine you'd choose and not post anything else. but no you post what engine you'd choose and bash other peoples choices at the same time. Am I suppose to just give my opinion then let it get bashed? I'm sure you all wouldn't take it very kindly if I went around in all the threads bashing the SR20 whenever you recommended it. probably because people believe whatever they are told. I'd say 90% of the people got their RB20 experience from youtube. |
