So i have decided to go Rb25 in the sx, how much work will it be to get 300kw from the motor or even more, o and the sr20det notch top is up for sale.

How much for the SR with everything including gearbox?

Thanks

Is that bare motor with no ancillaries? Or what all will come with it?
How many km's on it and any issues?

I dont think people are struggling to sell them because of the RB motors. Its just people dont want to buy a SX cause they have recieved the branding of being unreliable!

I myself wanted to buy another SX again and decided not to after a while cause I dont want to redo the whole car again! (not talking about yours Shane).

Its not that we against RB, i had one and loved it for a street car 😀
but the day is going to come when you are going to sell it and you wont even get the money back for the parts :x

If you have a BIG budget and resale does not matter then go for RB 😉

We just trying to help you with experienced advice .If the point is to build up the car yourself then cool but you will lose alot of money 😢

my 2c 😀

AAdrian11 Jul 2011, 10:25

So 50k for just motor box and the prop mod or is that running with upgraded ecu bigger radiator ect...

lljS1411 Jul 2011, 10:37

R50K is for everything running with Dicktator or Gotech .
Add more if you go for a good ecu that i would recommend you do 😉
