I have a GTR. And I would just like to agree with the original post.... $$$$ $$$$ $$$$. Fully rebuilt my engine too a 2.7L with forged internals, head work IE. Cams cam gears etc... and added GT4088R, and GReddy manifold. Let me tell you.... $$$$$$$$ but will be well worth it when she is running!ZenkiCam wrote:

thank god, the guessin i have been looking for since i started to read all of these post. please some one answer this. I'm leaning more to the rb20 side because im going for a dd, and want to have the rb > the sr. and is it just me or is the rb25 enough for a s chassis? do u really need the rb26dett, unless ur going for drag.lol just my 2 cents. (Newbi Q ) i have also hear that the stock tranny on an rb20 is weak, but how? will it be ok for a dd w/ minor drift tendensies?namor01 wrote:I've recently considered an rb25 or rb20 for my daily driver s13 (no drifting, maybe kicking out the wheels ocasionally but no drifting). so any real life experience opinions on my idea?rb20?rb25?

thanks, i have another question, i have a megan 1 piece short shifter kit on my ka, i know that it will bolt up to a sr, but i saw a picture of a rb20 and i noticed it looks very similar, anybody know if it will bolt right up, i can always just wait till i purchase one, but i was just wandering?Coolwhip wrote:

The RB20 tranny is noted to be "weaker" than a RB25 tranny. Not to mistaken as a weak transmission. 20 Trannys are more than capable to handle daily load and some thrashing. To consider, RB20 tranny = SR20 tranny strenght since they use the same internals.
What ever your budget can afford/ application you seek to use the motor for will determine which route to take.
Either way, you'll be happy with your purchase if wisely research your journey.
Carl did a write up on installing iirc a KA or SR short shifter in his 20 box. search it up.nismor240sx wrote:
