Ive been thinking alot about which engine to go with. I would love an Rb25 but damn that price. its gonna take me like 5 months to save up for it. I have been checkin up on ca18 and it looks like a pretty good engine. im thinkin i could use the difference in price money, from the Rb to the ca to Mod the ca. Im hearing i could get a decent 300+ horses out of it. this was just for a daily driver and i would prolly get a better 240 and do a RB swap later on.

but what do u guys think....I wanted to have some damn good fun wit an Rb but i was only lookin for about350 horses out of the RB also.....would the ca be a better bet since its a bit cheaper.

plus Im not sure how long my Ka is gonna last 175,xxx miles on it and its smokin alot at stops. But not when im driving....just when i stop for a bit. So the only reason i might go wit the ca is really cause i wont be able to save money long enuff for the rb

well anyway...give me yer opinions.

CA18 is good too. All of the swaps are good. You cant wrong with any of them in my opinion.

Like spec said:All teh swaps are good.rememebr it takes awhile for the engien to show up then installattion then soring out.

So if you do an engine that 'll take u 5 months to save up on, then wait for engine 2 months minimum ( sometimes 6 months if problems, then a decent isntallation, which cna take some time to find a decent shop)

What I am saying is tehre is always a risk of delay built in regardless if you add 5+ months of saving up, by teh time you are finally successfully swapped a long time can have passed.

Get the easier/cheaper swap.

Get the RB20. It is as cheap as the CA18 but more potent.

I was very surprised when I saw how cheap the RB20 was. I saw a clip for sale for 1695. Is there anyplace I can go to see specs on the RB20?

Yea, get an RB20.

If your goal is 300-350 hp, the RB20 would be very good for you IMO.
