Go rb20. That is the engine i'm throwing in my car. An inline 6, i 214 hp at 6600 rpms, 185lbs tourqe at 4400. Yes an rb25 would be better, there is no replacement for displacement, but rb20 will be alot cheaper then an sr, and it's a stable base for a car. Not to much power, but enough were you can have fun and not have to do any mods. To me it's the perfact engine to throw in your 2600 pound car, not have to modify, and have enough power and tourqe for enjoyment. Did i mention the spool? Yes an rb25 would be fun, but when it comes down to it, it's your car, your money, and what you want out of your car. I hate sr's, for the only fact that everyone loves them haha. When I swap a motor in my car, it's going to be an rb20, and nobody can convince me otherwise. It's your money and your car, do what you want not what other people think you should do. Check out TND####. Go to the advertiser section on this forum. His user name is TND####. I've talked to him about my swap, and it wouuld cost $1700 shipped. The only thing else I would need is motor mounts and tranny mount. Hes a really good guy, been in business for 3 years. He will take care of you and tell you everything you need to know about swapping in an rb or sr or whatever.
