if you want to make an AWD "track" car, why dont you just get a skyline from canada for cheap and set it up for the track? it would be a lot cheaper and a lot less headache than swapping it in a S chassis and making it AWD.
after all its a track car, doesnt need to be run on the street rite?
otherwise, a 240 with a SR or RB and RWD is really just about whether its worth the extra cash and difficulty in finding parts, and howmany HP you are planning to turn out, and which motor you prefer.
you can offset some of the weight from an RB with suspension settings..
also if you want a car for autox AND drifting, your better off with a RWD car, AWD currently cant compete in drift events per rules, IIRC

The RB weight issue is a myth perpetrated by people that have actually never had a RB in thier cars. Speaking from a point of reality, I can honestly say that the RB does not upset the balance of the car, or cause an undue weight issue. My car handles great running a RB25. In fact a car with a RB25 is the exact same weight as a car with KAT. Its a complete non issue and does not need different suspension settings to work. hhahhahhahhahhahha
Now as far as autocrossing goes or scca road racing what other people have stated is true. If you want to build a track car just to go out to track and have fun on track days and whatnot you can install a RB or SR and have fun. If your planning on serious competition then its study the rule books and expect intense competition from other very competitive platforms. That said figure out what you want to do yourself and have fun.
