Bump for some rb20 love!

Ignition relay shorted out, so I had to hotwire it, i got to fix the wiring and get a new relay. Easy fix though.

damn this car is fast in winter air. I'd love to have a smaller intercooler setup so the spool would be a little quicker..

I really can't complain, this is the first problem. It would have never happened if I would have wired it up right to begin with.

I'm going to go pick up some tires for the rear today. I'm going to run atleast some 225s in the rear for some better traction. 195's blow.

its funny..the shop that i bought my motor from can't do an SR swap to save there life...but, they have done like 25 RB swaps and i bet 22 of them have blown up

and my little sr has been running strong since day one...hell it even held 25psi for like a month!!!!

you guys should switch....the most troble ive had with mine is a crazy idle from a busted MAF...other then that...sex

lol if 22 of them have blown up, it might be the shop.

Rb20s are solid little motors, i redline mine daily and it never gives me any problems.

And I never get a weekend to go to the track because im fixing all my friends sr20s after someone flicks their oil pan and it blows up :|

yeh i agree with driftx rb's are solid, ive had my rb for about 6 months now and i can dance on the limiter and it will thank me for it. only think is it is running very very rich. and dont get me wrong typex sr's are good motors but i just dont need another engine right now. plus i just love the sound of my rb driftx i think u can agree on that =)

Rb20's have a pretty rich tune from the factory. All it does it richen it out so you can beat on it all day. Also, have you replaced your o2 yet, that could help.

Rb sound > sr floppy vagina sound > srt4 floppy vagina
