I've been looking to do a swap and I was wondering if anyone can tell me which is better and why? I know the rb has more hp and is about the same price... If you can give me some pros and cons that would be very helpful in making my decision

nico has lots of information, if you use the search button you can find it all.

whoever told you that the rb and sr are the same price was mistaken.

I said about the same price and on jspecauto.com the price difference is about $350

that price is similar for engine, transmission, wiring, etc. only, labor and supporting parts that will make them fit is what bring the difference in price.

I will do the swap myself I have done 2 sr swaps so far and they have came out fine so i'm not worried about a sr but the only thing I dont know about is what it takes to get a rb25 to fit in a s14
