Default R32, rb20... whaaaa?

A built rb20 putting out 400hp and a set of SSR SP1 with the fronts measuring 17×9.5 et-28 yes that's negative 28, and the rear wheels are 17×10 et -32. The car was build by yellow hat motorsports in jp.... bad ass if you ask me.






In car video at Tskuba Right click and open in a new window.

I got this from http://jonsibal.com/blog/2009/08/yms-hcr32/

nice car but a 400 whp rb20 isnt anything to brag about,

to get 400 outta 20 all thats needed are
turbo
z32 maf
rom
550s
fmic
fuel pump

still a nice looking car, shoulda stuck a 25 or 26 in it

my lag is your courtesy head start


ATTENTION.... installing a head gasket, head studs or pistons and rods in your otherwise STOCK engine dose not make it a "built" engine! stop listing you cars for sale saying they are built when its not!!

Why do you want an overweight engine?

Nice car, poor choice in motor. RB25 would of been a better choice. He is missing out on alot of torque.

A 400hp SR would of been way cooler. Atleast he would of saved alot of weight.

An RB20 is a waste of money. You have two more cylinders, but the same displacement as an SR. Parts are harder to find, and you have to spend more money on parts because of the two extra cylinders (6 injectors instead of 4, you get the idea). Plus iron block vs aluminum block argument. However talking about the RB20 is the equivalent of beating a dead horse, since it's already been covered numerous times.

a LOT of weight. Between the engine and trans, probably over 200lbs.

Then you'd basically have a widebody S13 with front multi-link. = Fast.
