There's ways to fix that, relocate the battery is the first and biggest that comes to mind.

lol, what a ------- ricer comment and a half. I was waiting for someone to say that. Cause mad tite hella JDM homo ****** drifting is sooo much better than having a fast car. My buddy's 240 with the RB goes sideways very nice. And even more important it goes fast and has more potential and was a cheaper swap than the 4 cylinder piece of ----. Get off the internet and live in the real world.

It may not be cheaper if they just put the SR20 in without replacing any of the parts that tend to go bad frequently on SR20's. Plus with the RB25 you have to buy special mounts and possibly a special driveshaft (I think?) which drives the price up some unless you can make them yourself...this is HMT afterall.

Now if you take the time to do the SR20 swap right, replacing all kinds of ----, and it's possible if you do JUST the swap it'll cost a LOT more than an RB25 would. Basically the RB25 is the way to go unless you're a professional JDM drifter that can only get sideways in perfectly balanced cars.

And about the origional topic, I think I read somewhere that KA24DE's are good to 300hp or so, SR20's maybe a little bit more. The SR20 is really a crappy motor in stock form...think about it 200hp with a turbo VS an H22 which is .2 liters more and dosn't have a turbo...makes the same HP, I'm not sure on torque however I'm sure the SR20 is probably higher.

Then again think if you put comparable turbo parts on a B16 or B18C, you'd make a ---- of a lot more than 200hp.

Basically it's go big(RB25) or go home.
