A couple RB20 questions... - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

AREITU · 01-13-2003, 02:16 AM

I was surfing the net and I found the site where Sport Compact Car sourced an S13 red top front clip. Under their specials, they have an R32 RB20 front clip for only $1000 plus shipping. Makes me suspicous. I don't even have a car, so I'm not considering buying it. I was just wondering if anybody knows a good US website that lists RB20 specs, and equivalent US parts? (ie. oil filter, injectors)

Thanks! I haven't been there since they updated. Now they actually have useful information!

It dosen't answer the question of the suspiciously cheap $1000 RB20 front clip...I'll leave it to someone else.

That "special" is over a year old. Venus sells more to other shops then to individuals.

Venus sucks. I tried to buy an RB from them. They responded twice, then never responded again after I asked if the motor will come complete.

Thanks, Venus auto! I'd go through unstable or mckinney or someone who's done 240s and is a reliable shop, if i were you. These guys suck farts.

My suspicions about Venus is now confirmed. Thank you guys for your comments, which are geniunely helpful, and it's what a webforum is really all about.

If I ever get around to a swap, I'd probably go through cartunemotors.com/neishlinmotors.com, mckinney or tpmotorsports. Would you happen to have any CA18-specific websites?
