RB20's can make crazy power for a 2.0. Every bit as much power as the KA or SR. Although I haven't seen anyone brake the 500 mark with the RB20 yet. I came close with 498...But that motor unassed itself at the races one night before I could ever brake the barrier.

You could be the first.

Rb20 in a S13, Love everything it gives. For drifting it is just enough to have fun. Plus it walks all over other cars. With a tuned ECU and a 3inch exhaust, Custom Intake, its incredible.

its funny but in japan it seems like most ppl dont like the rb20 in the skyline, where its ripped out and replaced with an rb25 or *gasp* sr20.mebey its because the sr20 has hella aftermarket support or ppl think that the rb20 doenst make enough power.but when you drop it into a car that weighs 2500 lbs it really shows what it can do.

But on the same note you won't see alot of 600hp Hond motors and 8 sec 4G63's. Have to do it the American way, Take something that sucks and make it better.

I love my RB in my 240, it really has nice power and can keep the back end sliding enough to really make it easy to drift.

I've got a uber-rare RB20DET Power FC, a new TD04E turbo, and some DSM injectors to compliment the other stuff I've done so far.. I really hope to put down about 300ish HP. That oughta wake the car up !! :D

I believe there's one on ebay right now for sale. You have to get a special PowerFC modified by a company called A.P. Engineering.
