I own a ca18de S13 Silvia. My mate is about to buy a sr20det powered 180sx. I'm considering putting a rb20det in my car. Will I be able to beat him? How would the race go? With mild mods on both engines, how would we fair?
Also, how does the RB20DET fair against a 13B series 4 rx7 at stock boost?

You wouldn't happen to be S13 Silvia on SDU wouldya?
Anyhow,
I'd say grab an RB20, and what is it... RB25 Crank and rods and RB20 pistons and head. Some other bits aswell.
Or perhaps if you want, an RB25 so your starting with bigger manifold and ports... All sorts of fun stuff to do :D
As far as who will win... Depends on mods. I'd say stock for stock it would be close but RB will win. After you start modding it's hard to tell, I think the RB will respond better to them, but who knows :D

my money is on the sr, i'm pretty sure its lighter. the RB will rev a bit higher and sound better, the sixes sound sweet.
