RB20E Engines in a R33

[Scotty]

G'day All,

Need your advice, if most of you don't know me as yet, I'm looking for a R33. The main problem I have right now, is the matter of insurance. I have been quoted some astronomical price for a turbo, however as I still like the R33 shape, am opting for a NA one instead.

I have managed to track one down in pretty good condition. It has the M Spec body kit, so yeah, has the looks, but it only has the RB20 engine in it.

Now I currently drive a VL Commo, with the famous RB30 engine in it. Considering that that is pretty sluggish already, should I even bother with the RB20? I love the shape and really want to get into a R33, but how does it run? Remember, the R33 is a big ass car! Can any mods be done to it so that it is a least respectible?

Final question, how much would you pay for one? The one I've found is a 1993, (or was that 1994) M spec body kit with 80K on the clock (hmmmm, doubtdul)

Anyway, please write back with your thoughts.

Thanks!

Please don't buy a urban runner R33. The RB20E is so bad... save for as long as you have to and get a RB25DE version at the bare minimum.. otherwise you'll hate it.

Upwards of $15K+ should get you into a RB25DE R33 GTS

Hey PVA

Yeah, I know, I know. But yeah, you're unfortuately outside my price bracket I'm only going to insure it third party fire and theft, so yeah, don't really want to spend too much. Another problem is you're way over there in WA while on in Melb, Vic.

Thanks anyway
