RB20 conversion
has anyone here dropped an r31 rb20 into a 5-speed here? do they go hard? My friend took me for a spin in his skyline with the same engine the other day and i was impressed. Is it much work for the conversion? what else would i need to buy? intercooler? turbo timer etc? i know everyone says to upgrade your brakes first but id rather get the engine running nice, then do brakes and heavier clutch later. Theres one on ebay at the moment that im keen on.
any info would be great.
get a front cut, the come with breeaks gearbox and all the shit u need
get breaks cos u dont wanna go fast till u can stop
i know RB25 drop in easily (R32)
intercooler comes when u push more boost bat cant hurt aslong as u dont go massive and just make boost drag
tubo timer is a good ideah but not essential just dont turb her off bang strtae away after pushing her hard u know, just be smart
how much is the one on ebay? + poastage+ putting it in cos im sourcing my RB25DET front cut engin and gearbox all here in the car and running for $4500
I dont think I would bother with an RB20.
Just turbo the RB30
don't put a redtop rb20 from an r31, make sure you get a silver top rb20 from a r32
mate i did one in my old vl calais with the rb20 red top its easy to put in ive got the wiring digrams if you need but i wouldn,t do it the are slow and you got to drive on boost all the time to get any where so i pulled it out and put rb30et in should of done that the first time if you want ive got a full turbo set up sitting here just pm me

personally i will get a rb25 half cut then ill stick the gear box on and keep the block of the rb 30 and stick the top end of the 25 on rb 30 has a stronger block than all of the rb motors
