I think all of these engines will do that... How deep are your pockets?Also, from what i hear sr20>rb20 mod for mod... i hope that helps... out of the list I would go sr20 since it is easy to install...

Depends on what your looking for. If you just want a fast car for the street, the SR should be sufficient. If your serious about putting some serious power, then I'd go with a RB or a 2jz?

I personally would be fine with a KA-T or a SR20.

What are your power goals, OP? And what will you be using the car for?

Because KA-T or SR are both very capable of 300hp+. Which is more than enough for most ppl...

No, you're a noob because you are incapable of making decisions by yourself. As evidenced by this thread.

Swaps I could only dream of? Lol... most of that stuff is pretty common out here in TX. Not sure about your neck of the woods, though... lol

Go Sr. parts are relatively easy to find. There are usdm compatible parts for it.The swap, itself is easy to do. RBs can be very pricey and the parts are rare,here in the states. It all depends how much you are willing to put in.Besides, wiring the Sr is a lot easier.

Nico is a treasure trove of info, new guys. If you search for whatever pops into your head s-chassis wise, you'll probably find that it has been thorughly covered. No one gives a s*** about wanting to start a pissing contest with some teenager.

If you want opinions, go search for them. Because most of us here NICO have given them time and time again... You don't need to start a new thread for this stuff.

95 percent of broken stuff is user error.But if you want to be "unique" and like the sr20 then check out the ca18det its a bit more rev happy however makes less torque.... also realy cheap and just as easy to swap into your car.
