Besides being a nonconstructive prick, I did look at your hatch build and it is tastefully done.

1. It appears you answered your own question regarding the 'assumption' of your age. Congratulations on unknowingly impersonating an adult.



2. I do my research, buy up what I need; then do my best to exercise patience in putting it all together. 'How long" it takes has no bearing- I choose quality over quantity on nearly every occasion.

3. All things now coming to light, I thought my advice to you was very constructive. Would you have felt a little less violated if I had my 19yr old son log in and give you the very same advice instead? If so, my bad.

4. Thanks for the kind words on my build. I've worked very hard on it and appreciate the compliment sincerely.

There is only 1 thing I'll give RB20s props for...fucking engine wont die when left stock. I've seen a guy literally try to kill the engine by sabotaging it and it didnt blow. I'm talking about driving it it with no coolant after crashing and destroying his radiator, shit didnt blow.

Ray, don't forget... RB20's do happen to sound quite amazing!

Left stock or very mildly modded, they are awesome. All things considered, I may build an RB20-powered coupe for my daughter in a few yrs.

I've also seen some 400hp RB20's that were pretty BA too.

I love my SR for the simplicity and aftermarket support so I'm staying with that for now.

As we have come to find out OP is a 19yr old... I'd say his best 2 choices are KA24DE or SR. But ultimately, his choice. Yet another BS thread for the archives.

As an A31 Cefiro Owner that got the RB20DET stock, and a previous swapped RB20 240 owner I can tell you that the RB20 is Idiot proof and a great starter engine but is not worth building.
They can make power but gets to a certain point where you add up the receipts, compare them, realize what else you could have built and what you could have gotten...
Thing is parts for the RB20 are usually interchangeable with the RB25/26 so your spending the same but getting less power out of it as you would if you had the bigger engine in the first place.
Bang for buck you are better off building a SR or Rb25.
KA-T can also be done for really cheap now days.
But it also depends on what type of racing you want to do or if it's for daily/ weekend fun.
Also what your skill level is and what facilities you have access to also factor in, that will effect you wallet also...
I say just pick the best condition and cheapest engine you can get your hands on and spend the rest on upgrades.
You'll still get power to the ground that way and have money to fix anything that comes up either way.

I know, Jaime seems to be the only person on Oki that had success on RB20s. He had a 390whp RB20 on with a T3/T4 turbo on it. Rose made 360 on the same turbo kit that I'm running that I got from him. I made 420 on the same turbo kit from rose

^^Yea Jaime's ride was definitely legit. My theory is that he got one of the few Skyrines on the island that hadn't been beat to death before he got a hold of it. Also, IIRC, his was properly tuned... which as you know is rare [for most Americans] there lol

It all boils down to experience and knowledge. A young guy like you doesn't have much experience or knowledge to draw from. The SR's and KA's have a lot of easily available parts and information to draw from. It's better for you to gain experience with a more common, and easily installed/modified engine and then move on from there if you feel the need. Also, being so young, you probably don't have the best driving skills in the world. You're better off learning how to drive on a lower power engine and boost the power up as you progress. Jumping right into a 300hp RB25 swap probably isn't the best idea. When you learned to swim you didn't just jump right into the deep end with no life jacket did you?

because all these old timers on here think if you are young you are automatically dumb.

they all act like they are way older then 19.. when in fact they are more in the 21-25 range.

Don't give it any thought. there are 3 types of people on here.
1. People who pay $$$ to build their cars, then be a complete asshole to everyone and anyone who doesn't build their car. ( almost everyone with a blue name falls into this category )
2. people who cheaply build cars, JDM-YO style, then be assholes to anyone who is a noob or doesn't know about cars.
3. Noobs / "ricers" who are actually the most respectful people on this forum.

I'm 20 and built my rb25 s14 with a tube front and completely aftermarket chassis harness. Is it perfect? No. Does it work? You bet it does. Was it hard? Not really..

Age doesn't matter it's about mechanical skill or ability to learn along the way. That being said I'm putting a fire extinguisher in my car. Lol

2. people who ghetto their cars together JDM-YO style with cheap-o parts, then be assholes to anyone who is a noob or doesn't know about cars- because they all have horrible cases of little-man's complex. They also piss and whine like little bitches because their cheap-o, ghetto-rigged parts break on them left and right
3. Noobs like you who are actually fairly respectful, but need a little guidance once in a while.
4. Trolls like me who love to stir up shit, constantly talk out their asses and soil otherwise decent threads with stupidity (we are incredibly easy to spot)
5. People who have actual life experience under their belts; and enjoy learning, helping & sharing what they know with the community- and also hope to help the young people avoid making some of the same mistakes they made when they were their age


Corrected- You should really not be so closed-minded, man.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

540dude, it's not about the engine type per se, it's about the learning curve- much like racepar1 said.

SR20's & KA24's will completely plug & play onto your car with little/no need to modify anything to fit. To boot, there are myriads of information and aftermarket/OEM parts supporting them. They are perfect, SIMPLE platforms to learn and have fun with... and capable of much better power as you grow into them. In terms of money, they are the cheapest of the bunch, too.

In the end, I will tell you the same thing I tell my 19yr old: It's your decision, dude... not anyone else's. All I can do at this point is do my best to give you advice that I think is sound... How you use the info is on you.

Whatever you do, good luck.

Most of us with a "blue name" have been doing this for a while. We take modifying our cars seriously. Building a car costs money, if you don't have much money it takes patience. A lot of us hate on the young broke kids because they have no patience. They want everything right now, no matter if they can afford it or not. This attitude is why cheap knock-off brands have flourished.

JDM is not cheap, that's strictly an American attitude. It's funny how you talk shit about the "JDM-YO" attitude, but you dropped the cheapest RB into your car just so you can say you've got an RB. Then you defend your choice tirelessly as if it wasn't just because the engine was so cheap.

3. Noobs / "ricers" who are actually the most respectful people on this forum.
I think you fall into THIS category, except for the "respectful" part that is.

The bottom line is that YOU get the attitudes that YOU get because of YOUR OWN attitude. You're extremely argumentative about everything and you clearly think you know better than everyone. You'll always be bashed on untill you realize that some other people may know more than you. Take the advice you're given and form your own opinion. Tirelessly arguing with everyone will get you nowhere but flamed.

You don't have to have a "blue name" to know your shit, but clearly you have A LOT of learning to do.

We older guys lack patience for the younger crowd because you roll in here acting like you know everything. Obviously this isn't the case. We were young and dumb at one point, but life lessons, listening and experience have taught us a lot.

I am not one to pay for someone to do my work for me, that's part of building MY car. I have the abilities and facilities available to me to do my own work and when I cannot, I out source it.

I may be an asshole, smart ass, or whatever else you want to call me, but I've been around a hell of a lot longer than you and have seen people just like you come and go. You're all the same.

OV- People may flame on you, but if you would shut up and listen every once in awhile you may learn something. At the start of your membership people told you not to get the 20, obviously for more reasons than it being a bastard child. I respect your persistence, but it does get annoying at times. You are a very arguementative person based on threads I've seen you post in. Relax man, it's the Internet.

Thanks for the insight.
I don't know how many times I have to say this but I can say it again, I chould of had a Rb25 if I wanted.. but I wanted the Rb20. not because it's a jdm engine.. or because it's an Rb.

and I would be respectful if people would be respectful to me. which they are not. Respect my decision for what engine I chose, and i'll respect you back. Talk shit about me, I'll say shit back.
it works both ways. Just because I didn't take the advice about getting a SR, or Rb25.. I deserve to be constantly talked down to?

Not everyone is going to like the way you built your car, roll with the punches and let it go.

You're talked down to because you constantly pop back with some ridiculous argument. You're talked down to because you seem to think that you know better than everyone. You're talked down to because you're new here and you just expect everyone to bow down in respect.

As stated previously, we've seen a LOT of guys like you come and go over the years. If you want respect you have to EARN it. Respect isn't free and you don't start off on the top of the food chain. Most of us went through our noob bashing stage. Some took it better than others, ME included. I smashed head first into zilvia demanding respect. It didn't work out so well initially. I kept my head down and earned the respect I desired over the years. I backed off and learned some shit. You need to calm down and do the same.

I'm blue and I've paid people to build my cars...True story according to everybody's favorite Zilvia Troll. Respect? You got a $10,000 dollar car to wager so you can get some "respect?" I swear some days I wonder why you haven't migrated to NICO yet, I bet you'd get more "respect" there.

He's just mad cuz he have yet to find a nut-swinger out here. I'd give him props for sticking with the RB20 if he wasnt so fucking obnoxious on the way he tries so hard to justify himself to everybody.
