Hello,

I am interested in how many rb owners there are. List what engine you have, what year engine, what car its in, what year the car is, the engine mods, and the HP your are putting down. Also list your goal HP. Also list your website or pics if any.

I have a 1991 rb20det in a 1992 240sx hatchback. I have stock exhaust, cone filter intake, stock boost, stock turbo. 176RWHP or 215HP to the flywheel. My goal is a 350RWHP daily driver.

I have a 91 240sx coupe with a silvia front end conversion and a rb20det of unknown year out of a r32 gts. No real mods to speak of, but im planning on having around 300 hp to the wheels when im done with it. Im using it as a daily driver to school. The pic isnt real clear but it gets the point across.

That is sweet. How much did it cost to have the intake manifold done like that?

Oh ahah... that's not my motor or manifold... I got those pics off of skylines australia to show my friend... I had planned on welding the manifold like that but I found a great deal on the greddy manifold... Anyways I'm sure any experienced welder could do it for around $100

Finally! As of tonight I have an RB20DET-powered S14 (1995 SE) :ylsuper

Cranked up on first try too. And for anyone like me who wondered whether the RB20 has the same deep throaty exhaust note that the RB25 has.... YES! It does.

No pics yet, but here's what I have:

R32 RB20DET in 1995 240SX SER32 x-member & transmission mountsApexi N1 DualApexi Power Intake300ZX brakes all aroundStock O2 housing & DPWalbro 255KA radiatorKA gauge clusterR32 HICAS PS pump1 PermaCool 12" high perf. fan (yeah, it's not summer yet)

The O2 housing clears the steering rack, and the swaybar clears the oilpan. Tach seems to work fine, although it may be high by 1.5x (no bouncing issues or spurious readings at low rpm). Temp gauge works fine. Oil sensor (switch) works fine. I took the valve body out of the HICAS pump rear section, but did not remove the vanes. This seems to work right now, but we'll see.

I followed the wiring info I posted a while back and can now say that it has been tested and works fine :D

Yeah, I can't stop grinning.

I am using the dual flex-a-lite 12 inch fans. I think the part was 220 something. I got them from summitracing.commine are puller fans. I am going to take them off and switch to a koyo radiator. Then put the fans on the opposite side, run the power to the ground and ground to power, and see if they will work as pusher fans.

my recommendation is to start out with pusher fans(flex-a-lite has the exact same setup, that is already setup as pusher).

My fans barely fit, and I had to take off the plate on one of them to clear the motor. They do a great job of keeping the car cool however, so I would recommend them. They completely cover the radior, which is what you want to try for. I am just not sure if I am going to have room on the otherside to fit them. That is what the dremel is for :)
