Modify Or Upgrade From Stock Standard Rb20det R32?

[stunr32]

hey guys,

just bought my first skyline!! and would be great to hear any opinions on what i should do with the rb20det (it is currently stock standard -1990 r32 and it is auto)

Does anyone think it is worth spending money on the rb20det (and i would be willing to spend up to 10k) or would i be better off putting an rb25det first and modifying that one and possibly doing a manual conversion??

Also any suggestions what modifications i should do?? or which brands are best???

thanks

My rules for vehicle modifications:

1. Make it stop - slotted rotors, decent pads, braided brake lines

2. Make it handle. - upgrade shocks, springs, swaybars, front camber

3. Now make it go - cubic inches still count.

Definatly put a man gbox in whatever the engine is but, realistically its going to come down to personal choice on this one.

Both engines have their good and bad points but if you want power pretty much on tap from bolt ons go the rb25.

The rb20 is probably one of the strongest motors I know of as long as you not going above 250-260 kw and maintaining it well it will last
