Wow...what can I say? I just joined this forums because a buddy of mine recommended it to me. Just from reading this thread alone I feel like I wasted minutes of my life.

I would like to see some substantial information regarding the RB20 was a "boat anchor". Not just everyone's opinions. From everything I have ever read, you gain approx. 50-75 lbs over the KA. And that information is from ppl who have actually driven the car (before AND after the swap) onto a scale. Sooo you gain that much weight...wow. I hardly think that qualifies the RB20 as an anchor.

As far as for the cost of the motor...I have to say that paying 1K for my motorset really upset me...gosh what would I do with all that extra money that I saved. Perhaps drop it into the car and/or motor? And I would love to hear what "ancient" technology the RB20 is equipped with. And paying extra money for the other cylinders?! Yeah I had to fork out a whopping $60 for my 440cc Supra injectors (plus the $100 to have all of them cleaned and flowed).
This debate over RB vs. SR vs. CA vs. KA is extremely irrelevant and juvenile. Until someone brings meaningful information to this thread, it still remains a pissing contest. "My SR will crush your blah-biddy-blah S13 piece of crap...."
My RB20 was pushing over 250whp (Mustang dyno), with very little dropped into it ($700 turbo, $60 injectors, SAFC) at 14psi. So I would have to say that it was not a bad investment at all.

I am sure that many ppl will reply to this talking all kinds of trash. I might have even ticked some of you off, but I have respect for ALL Nissan motors. Yes some of them have more potential than others...but don't hate on one motor because you have a biased (and uninformed) opinion. I hope there is someone else on this thread that feels the way I do. If you respond to this, please make it a relevant discussion and don't come at me with ridiculous talk about my "POS" motor and such garbage.
