I have a 1991 240sx automatic 4cy. I want to get a RB26 or RB25 i dunno what would be better. OR what would even fit.

How much would this cost me?

And if i got the manual engine//tranny would it be possble to put it in a automatic car, and if so how much would it cost? And what would have to be done

look at about 13 g's if you cant do labor yourself. Thats for the rb25.

rb26....dont even try...


i think you should go with the sr20......easy and cheap.

the sr20 isnt near as quick is it? i figures the sb25 would be alot faster (more hp)

stock for stock there both slow like every other import engine known to man. I mean what do you mean faster....an sr20 with 400 hp is plenty for the street. I dont get your logic behind the "its slower" statement.

after reading these 3 identical threads i would like to say a few things.
first what the fuck why did u make 3 threads? do you have alzhiemers?

second rb26 waste of time i rode in a s14 powered rb26 last week not worth the amount of money and problems. handled shitty from my perception as a passenger. the steering would stick if you hit the throttle around turns because when there was any engine movement the downpipe hit the steering. basically huge waste of time and not fast enough out of the box for the money.

third why are you asking how much it will cost to swap from auto to manual you already said you have a friend to do it

fourth why are you full of so much shit

5th you will never have a jdm engine because a swap is way past any knowledge you will ever posses even paying someone to do it would be a challenge for you

6th if you want a fast car you might as well buy one brand new so you dont ever have to think

7th why am i even responding to this thread because its been covered 8000 times and im still going on a alnighter of studying and i hate you for upsetting me at 7AM when i have been up for 24 hours.

8th you have a nopi sicker on your car. that means failure is inevitable for you

now i hope i covered everything and this thread can be locked away and forgotten and so a fourth can i put a rb in my car thread can be started and then i can just copy and paste this post in that thread and call it a day

lol saying he'll never have a jdm engine is kinda harsh. It's true that most people that wanted to do this never do this. How many SRs are in your cars compared to KA's?

next time give him an old thread to read about this and i'm sure that would have worked out..

normally word = agreement

and i have a sr. and i dont see any of it as harsh after him asking the same ? in 3 consecutive threads then even starting a 4th extremely similar one after swigz closed 2 of the threads and explained to not open identicals threads. i dont feel like i was acting harsh at all.
and anyone asking extremely basic un educated ?'s claiming a rb26 is obviously a fanboy and doesnt understand what the deal is and is just jumping on the bandwagon until they find a new color of underglows to drool over

Dude...

1. I never said i didnt have the money to do any of this, Cuz i do.

2. I just wanted to knowif its possble.

3. I also said a RB 26 OR RB25, Even concidering a SR20.

4. My main ? now is CAN a automatic car, be turned into manual, if i have a manual tranny//ENgine ECU ect. How hard would i be to finish changing it to manual, what else id need? I know id need Clutch. I was thinkin since id have a Manual tranny/engine ecu ect. I should just be able to install the clutch and would work after gettin a few small things. Right or no?

lol.

well you actually already have the "clutch" with your manual tranny and engine setup. You would just need the clutch pedal/brackets etc etc etc that all is involved with "operating" the clutch. Find an FSM or go to the junkyard and just start tearing everything out that looks like what you'll need. If you got an sr20 front clip....im sure everything you would need would come on it......so its just a matter of swapping all that off into the other. Shouldnt be rediculously hard.

Jeez man.... SIdeways, every post ive seen from u whether my thread or others, it seems to be like ur allways being an asshole. Man i was just tryin to find something out, if u dont like it then u can NOT REPLY or just reply once. dont continue being an ass about every question i ask. And about my other 2 threads... Theres a reason:

1st thread i had accidently put "249sx"
2nd thread i fixed it by putting "240sx" (this is the corrected thread)
Other thread i asked RB25 or RB26
Other AUTO SWITCH TO MANUAL
Other was RB25 or Sr20
None are the same But the typod one. Im just tryin to see the best way to go with an engine swap.

you should stop trying to build a 240 BEFORE you learn about the basics of automotive technology. god dammit all these people who think they can just bolt things on and run 10s. FUCK. buy a civic and leave us alone. come back when you have the basic knowledge of how cars work so you dont have to ask dumbass questions that
A. you can google in 10 seconds
B. you can search this forum for
C. anyone worth their salt in car knowledge wouldnt have to ask anyways.































FUCK RICE.
A MESSAGE TO ALL RICE> STAY AWAY FROM HERE. THERES A REASON HONDAS ARE SO CHEAP AND EASY TO WORK ON. SO YOU DUMB FUCKERS CAN LEARN BY BLOWING UP A CHEAP SHITTY CAR BEFORE YOU TRY AND WORK ON A REAL CAR!!!!

i am a asshole but my response generally do answer what people ask i have answered basically ever ? you have asked so be grateful that i helped your stupid ass thanks to me you know you cant make a 240 awd a rb26 is a waste of time what you need to change to manual and what all you need for the sr swap i helped your as. and in all your threads theyre was always a repeated ? you could have asked all in one thread as for the typo thread if you were the least bit of observant your dumbass would notice that there is a edit button. i helped you dont be such a whinny cocksucker. you 240 is going to go down as the worst project s13 ever because your a idiot and dont know shit about cars. and you will continue to fail at life and cars.

i would be willing to buy your s13 for twice whats it worth just to save it from you

i figured it out just read all 4 thread made by him again he always talks about a manual then ask is he can get the clutch for it. its all so clear now he doesnt realize the clutch is in the tranny hes thinking that the vlutch is the peddle there is no other explanation hes dumber then i thought. where are RW 240 and logik and the logikal one when you need them

do you not read what i have put in your other threads i rode in a rb26 powered s14 last week. i didnt say immpossible. i know that but it isnt worth it. and you wont ever make it awd like you had mention that wont be driveable. so the rb26 yes possible we all know this worth it NO. reasonable NO. to much trouble YES. will your steering column and downpipe be hitting some yes and that will suck. its not worth it and cost a shit load why? there is no reason to do it unless you have a shop and want a nice show car to show other people how much of badasses you are. and when something breaks have fun paying out the ass. so thank you for the above post and saying something everyone in this forum already knew

LOL wow, my friend saw a guy w/ a 240 hatch that had a rb26dett setup, he was running a tiny ass honda radiator (b/c thats all he could fit) and kept wondering why it was overheating haha...

if you think you have the knowledge and cost to do this. You wouldnt be asking if auto's can be swapped to manuals, and what was needed. My suggestions would be...

1)drive your car after you get it looking not like butt
2)put parts on the car you have untill you have more knowledge
3)atleast do a basic SR swap before you think you can jump to a RB series

id say go SR20 but if your stuck on an Rb go with a rb25 the rb26 is a rad engine but way to much work you need to do like a custom oil pan for the drive shaft to go threw and stuff so i say its not worth the money or hassle go for sr20 or rb25

hmmm judging by your previous posts, id say a stock ka24de with bolt ons is CHeaper, Ezier, and get enough power to kill yourself in. learn how to not be a noob then get a good engine. its bad enough that youll wreck your 240 WHEN(not if) you crash it, now youll probably waste a perfectly good SR in the process.

Generally speaking, he's talking about people that buy 240's and are completely new to them putting a bunch of money into their cars and then try drifting with it and, the majority of the time, end up wrecking because they've got more power than they know how to handle. You haven't been here long enough to make accusations my friend, give it some time before you point fingers.

slideways didnt trash his sr i trashed mine. and im not so pissed that i hope other people trash theirs. which is why im parting my 240 out to others w/ 240's until i can save money completely rebuild my sr from top up and create a 400whp beast before it ever sees the street again well ill be buying a new shell as well. so go fuck yourself
