well i cant its a secret project me and my budy is working on for a rb20

just kiden it was EZ i took a rb20det intake and cut it of right under the fuel. made six adapter plates for the thottle bodies and welded them on and bolted the throttle bodies on them. the throttle bodies are off of 90s toyota levin (corolla)

that is it! im building a rb20e bottom end with a rb20det head and going to run the throttle bodies open like six carbs hoping to get about 10.5 compression out of it and it will be in a cefiro

This looks absolutely nuts^^^^

Why not use a RB30 bottom end instead of the RB20DE? You will make ooodles of power and torque from a an N/A RB30/26 and that throttle body setup!

the rb30 was not made for the japan market and if u find one it cost a lot and the rb26 is up in price too rb20de can get for free all the time

Over here in Aus you cant give them away . RB30 is a common motor here. They are renowned to still have hone on the inside of the bore after 400,000km/s or 250,000miles, and still perfect to rebuild or I have heard of people pushing it hard on 20yr old stock bottomends.

You could get a bare block and the bare necessities sent over to the US for fairly cheap, I reckon. Would certainly be a tough motor in a cefy and N/A too.
