The RB motors come in several different variations ranging from RB20det to RB26dett, obviously the latter being the motor from the covetted GTR34 skylines.
As far as which motors can go where, according to my knowledge with the know how to do it, you can stick any of them in any car. The SRs came in 3 different turbo varieties I think, redtop, from the sil eightys and S13 silvias, the blacktop in the S14 silvias, and the other blacktop in the S15 silvias. As far as I know, you shouldn't have a problem putting the motor in your USDM 240 as long as you have the JDM ECU for your year equivalent car. Someone else may chime in and say I'm retarded, but this is what I know. As far as the RB swaps, don't really know what all is involved their, never done one, but a lot of people do. I know the rb26dett is supposed to be matted to a AWD setup so if you wanted to put it into a 240, you'd need a RWD tranny from one of the other RB series motors from an R32 or 33.
