Drive a stock SR and then drive a stock RB.
When driving the SR, put the car into 5th doing ~35mph and floor it. Tell me what you feel.
Do the same with an RB and you WILL accelerate.
It's not about the sound. It's about usable powerband and most importantly, the potential.

I'm just working on my nico/240sxforums attitude. I figure if I train hard for a few more weeks I'll be reaady to start a thread over there....


do the swap yourself, if you don't have the tools/know how to do the swap, you don't have the tools/know how to own an RB. What are you going to do when that shit breaks? take it to pepboys?! By the time you wire and install the swap, you should have the know how to trouble shoot just about anything that goes wrong with your shit..
<----would not own a car unless it was RB or EJ powered. Fuck the haters.

Didn't know you were being sarcastic...

An RB swap isn't as difficult as people put it out to be. I personally think it's easier than an SR swap.

BTW, you're not the only one on here with an RB swap so I DO know what I'm talking about.
