Hi all ive got a Rb20e 1987 berlina and ive been thinking about repowering it, the project would be a long way off but that doesnt stop me from dreaming. Ive been researching mods and i think the best options for me would be to put a rb20det, rb25de with VVT or rb25det in it. This car would be my daily driver so im keen on keeping fuel consumption low which is why the rb20det and rb25de with VVT appeals to me most, i have completely ruled out rb30. I was wondering what you guys reckon would be the best way to go, personally i reckon the rb25 with vvt because it'd give me more torque than the rb20det ( wouldnt it?) and still be fairly quick and cheap on gas as its not turbo but what do you guys think? Also what would be the cheapest if i did labour myself except maybe wiring?
Also if anyone could give me links of anyone that has done one of these transplants and documented it step by step that would be great because im keen to see how much work is needed for the transplants.
Thanks ill try remember to put some pics of my car up later to give you all something to look at,
cheers
