that depends what you call "decent" dont just get the motorset for an RB, get the whole clip (trust me, it winds up being cheaper by the time you get done). I was lucky enough to snag a 5spd RB clip for $800 you will most likely pay close to $2000 to get one to you, but I have been in one and seen a few others in action, and it is worth it. (best of all its a 6-cylinder so it dont sound like a pissed off weedwacker)

have you looked into all the extra work that goes into installing an RB26?????? its not a bolt in swap. check it out first, you might find that a 20 or 25 is really more what you want to deal with. I am not trying to tell you how to build your own car, just wanted to make sure you had all the facts before you get caught with your **** in your fly.

too bad your not up here in PA I am trying to get as many people through my shop to do swaps like that as possible. Its good practice, and the more I do I think I can get it down to a few hours between me and the guy that works for me and then I can try to beat everyones price on labor, haha.

b4 you front the money and all the headaches with this swap go an drive some ones car who has the Rb20 and the Rb25 motor in the car and see if you like it I have had about 50/50 good and bad from both ends of this.

getting a cheap motor you get what ya pay for

spend the time and doo the math and see what you like better

SR20DET
RB20DET
Rb25DET
