RB20DET:FIRST DRIVE,FIRST IMPRESSIONS

[supersayianjim]

well this engine kicks a**. i mean it's not the fastest thing in the world(right now) maybe cause i have a gay a** (formerly) automatic rear end. anyway carl H did a smash up job on my wiring harness. all my gauges work(except tach) but who needs tach anyway.(i do) i was told the engine revs high. i avg 60 in 4th gear.

i haven't done anything extreme. i need the turbo to last ,and not blow the f*** up. so far the caR sounds like a jet under load. when it's not moving it's okay(that greddy bov is marvelous).

heres a vid of me in the carwash.

the car is lower in the front now(can't get the craftsman to the subframe). so i guess the engine has settled in. i s*** bricks now everytime i go over a hole or bump. for now it takes$30.00 of super to fill my tank. and it's not bad on gas economy at all(thanks to nismo fpr). total swap cost-car with blown head(80,000 org miles) $700.00-total motor swap rb20det-estimated parts$2,000.00 -countless brake cleaner cans and the death of a dremel, and partial death of a cordless drill(both black and decker) priceless....

this car is the ultimate sleeper. i don't get 2nd looks until i take off. just the way i like it.
