i forgot to mention that we americans dont have to pay all that bulshit for hooking up are cars. so some of the germans hate like crazy and wont even talk to you when you drive up to floss your ride. but hey they can kiss my *** they just want to be us.

I ment exspensive as finding a skyline engine which you have to get from japan and ship it to the us
That is what I meant too.

um no i dont really care but i doubt its cheap to buy a skyline engine and ship it. A guy from columbus just recently bought an r33 skyline and shipped it here and it cost him a nickel. Plus i doubt many people know how to work with an engine thats not made in the u.s.

An engine is an engine, you think Honda guys have a problem working on B16's from japan, I hope not. The only forseeable problem would be parts, but all of these problems are the same for the SR20, my only point was I would rather have an RB20det than an SR20.

im pretty sure that the rb20 makes the same hp as the sr20.. just a bit more TQ and has a little more stout bottom end...
