lol rb20's are all right they just lack torque... i use to hate mine when i first got it but now i dont mind it i would rather a rb25 but if mine blows i'll probs just stay with the 20 ... |

That's around 150kw which is pretty good for a close-to-stock R32, or even with a few bolt on mods. |

rb20 can take way more abuse than it's bigger brother anyway. What... I have two mates with 25's that skid and get thrashed all the time and never die... yet both of them have fucked 20's doing the same thing... the 25 is the slightly better choice... but a 20 is still alright... for an s13 its very base entry level due to being cheap... |

No one who has the cash for a 25 likes a 20. The only people who you will find defending rb20s are poor folk or drifter (same shit) yeah plus an r33 halfcut comes with the bullet proof 5 speed which is a good reason when going for a conversion. in a perfect world i'd choose an rb20+td06 and r33 5speed. |
