hey boof show me an rb20 making 650 hp!!!!!

closest I have seen is 550hp from a jap car.

I dont think they all break I know plenty of people making 240-250 rwk on stock bottom ended sr's and have been for 12-18 months I know of 5 in melbourne alone .

rockers only break when you over rev them. hence my 7200 rev limit

btw roy they do do 2.2 sr's :) you have to go for a ride in mine to see the difference

 

I ahve no dispute between rb 25/ 26 I thnkthey are great motors but as for 2.0 liter mark the sr eats and rb 20 every day

LOL...alright, all for a bit of fun, when my cars back together we'll give them a nudge down the quarter at Calder, loser buys the other a case of beer :) and goes off to think of a worthy excuse for getting handed a prodigous beating :)

Been for a ride in a few SR20s, one with the same turbo setup as mine, another with a Nizpro built engine, both well sorted cars and the only real difference is the SRs like Buster said dont seem to have the same top end as my thing, and response came back to the fact that their setups are sorted and only now is mine getting the wrinkles ironed out :) ..... i dont think there is any real difference, comes back to turbo setup and bolt on combination more then SR v RB

You can have an RB22 using std RB20 crank, SR22 requires $$$$ crank :aroused:

Yep... absolutely agree with Meggala there. I shall be going for the SR20DET swap in the Type M for sure.

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!! :Oops:

Its bad enough everyone swapping there RB20s for RB25/26/30s, now ppl are going to start throwing SR20s in them. :mad:

Its all good, funny to see how the different combos work, and the respective strengths of each. Though my only beef with that approach is noone ever tries to develop an RB20, so outside of a 2530 and 210rwkws, noone ever gives them a chance.

Come on Meggala, Calder Park and the prize being case, sorry slab of winners chosing :)

No i dont expect to win, probably lose as im a choker and have never drag raced before, but should be a bit of fun :) .....So SR20s SUCK BALLS , prove me wrong :)

lol seeing as this all started from the mag article I scanned in, (I've made a translated version if you fellas wanna follow the drag battle). I should probably post up the article in the same mag but in an issue from 1997 about RB20DET tuning achievements. Incluing a 2.4L RB20DET that is still doing the rounds in the tracks.

Also you should note... that particular category is limited to N/A vehicles up to 4L in capacity or turbo vehicles up to 2.4L in capacity. The truth is that under 2.4L SR20 is king.

    • In all the track days I've done over the past few months I've only had 1 issue with braking and thats with my current EBC pads (can't remember the colour, but they're not a track pad). I don't *think* I have had issues with brake fluid getting too hot, my understanding is that when that happens you will have quite noticeable brake loss - which I haven't had.  I'm using just regular ol' Penrite Super DOT4 fluid. I use this fluid in everything and my cars always seem to stop so I see no reason to change, except ... for the 335i. I need to do a fluid flush and was thinking about my fluid of choice and wondering if I should consider using something more high temp? Its not a super fast car by any standards but I'd hate to do a flush and then find myself with no brakes when I get. to Wakefield.  I guess, my question can be summed up as "How fast do you need to be driving to need higher temp brake fluid?"  I remember high temp fluid was considered a must have back in the day when I had my GTR. 
    • For anyone that comes here looking for answers on what can go wrong with gts-4 to rb25detneo swap. The Gloria's awd sump is different and does not fit. The rb25neo from stagea are exactly the same sump bolt pattern and axel alignment. Castings numbers are different on Gloria's blocks and oilpans if they need to be identified.
    • I have information on this for anyone that comes looking again. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18gsbFaYTU/ The rb25det neo from the stagea has the same sumo as rb26 and r32 gts4 (and other awd models). The sump that has caused so many problems during swaps are from the awd neo Gloria's. The casting numbers on the block and oil pans are different so this may help identify if you can't confirm where the motor came from
    • Not feasible to fix the boot lid you had? Damage looked minor/hard to even see :p Source: Drove into something recently and you should be happy you didn't!
    • Another new used boot arrived at the painters, it was sent back as there was nearly as much damage as the original one I want to replace  Finding a clean used boot lid is proving problematic, and I'm not keen on dropping $1500 on a new one from Mazda Sigh....
