Make sure you shop around for the best pricing, otherwise the conversion could hurt quite bad :lol:

RB or SR????? The 200sx Owners Club of SA should be renamed:

"The how many times can we discuss this topic forum of SA" :lol:
I agree with what has been said here, im glad you decided to stay with the SR. I think i would do the same, although the RB is a monster when mod'd right, for a daily the SR, if you look at all the factors: fuel economy, HP per Rand, and reliability, blah blah blah is a good call.

Although hearing a 6 wind up to 7000rpm..... mmmmmm

good luck with your build.
Its nice to be important, but more important to be nice.

Another shout for the ACT 6 puck heavy duty clutch...only thing you have to put up with is they aren't the quietest clutches around.

And mine that is rated to 450+nm of torque is VERY heavy on the clucth pedal even with braided clutch line. But you get use to it. It also NEVER slips....

I must confess that I am thoroughly enjoying the RB in my car. If I drive her normally I get 400 on a tank. Problem is I don't . Then I get 250 on a tank.

and that exhaust sound ! Glorious ! My v8 would have been in already were it not for the RB..
