Which engine swap is better?

['90_240sx_Lover]

I'm planning on doing an engine swap for my car, but i'm not sure which engine to use. My cousin put a RB20 motor in his '89 240 and it absolutly kicks @ss. But i'm not sure i want that much for my daily driver. I'm not sure if i want to use a SR20DET or one of the various skyline motors. Can anyone help? I would like info on both motors, pros and cons etc. Thanks.

use the search button, does wonders and also visit the RB/KA-T/sr/ca forums.

this has been discussed before, some will say either is better cause they own it, and it would rather start a war, so use the search button and those parts of the forum.

I would like to see someone do an RB30 from a Holden VL Calais. I know the engine would be older than any 240SX, but it could be interesting.

tho i really would like 1 of those rb30+rb26head hybrid engines.

Tell us your plans.No replacement for displacement.All engine have shown they can hold their own.IMO get KA turboes because parts are available without having to order. If you do an RB you got to make some mounts or buy some.What's your budget?
