Modified Rb20 Vs Stock Rb25

[wheels_24]

I was in the same boat my RB20 went i me and i was stuck with the same problem weither to build it back up again or buy a RB25. In the end i just rebuilt as i was happy with the power i was getting before the problems with it, so i got some aries forgies and got my machanic to rebuild her for me and i couldn't be happier, i am same as roy just like crusin around town and if i want to have fun i have to take it up to about 4200rpm. But remember i have a new recondition engine that should be good for say 150,000km (lets hope) were if you buy a secondhand motor in 6 months down the track after warrenty runs out you might be in the same boat again and have 2 engines that are no good, that was my worry

LOL...i dont care if your car has an Apexi turbo, stroker crank etc etc.... a case of beer says the RB20 can neva lose.

Are you up for a road trip to Phillip Island in 8-10 weeks...it may be worth a case of beer

...and when i had problems i got a wrecker motor, and my 2c is that the std RB20 they pull from a stock car that had std turbo and std ECU is so understressed that you cant really go wrong with them....my wrecker engine just like my original engine loves being punished...and im still yet to blow up an RB20

ive driven a 400rwhp rb26, been in 380rwhp rb25 and a 600rwhp gtr

the only think that come close to the feel of my rb20 with 300rwhp rb20 is the 600rwhp gtr

i love the excitment of the top end power of the rb20

the other cars may have been a bit faster, but mine is more fun
