RB26DETT Or SR20DET?
im new to this so bear with me would a RB26DETT swap with a stock s13 240sx engine be possible and if so what other features would i need to modify to make this setup work or would the traditional SR20DET swap be better for the sake of the conversation lets just say money is not an object i want to know if its possible to get the RB26DETT into my s13?

Anything is possible with enough time and money..... but as far as ease of the swap.... Sr20 will be A LOT easier than a RB26

Re: RB26DETT Or SR20DET?
If money is no concern and you don't mind waiting for it, then yes, an RB26 is an option. That's if, as you said, money is no concern.
Realistically, the SR20 is what will be the easiest.

Re: RB26DETT Or SR20DET?
from what i have seen and heard the sr20 is almost a straight bolt in where as the rb26 is going to be alot harder. so it depends on if you have the money (i know you said it doesnt matter) and if you have the experience unless you plan on having a shop put it in..

Re: RB26DETT Or SR20DET?
RB is a big is a big mistake. Way too heavy for the 240 suspension. Totally destrpoys the handling. Go SR20.
