Im still in the process of buying another car and a certain RBSX is messing with my mind...so to get some assurance i thought i'd post here for some general opinions
What is it like owning an RBSX?
Is it worth while as a weekend street toy?
Ave consumption mixed driving?(not really a biggie)
anyone willing to share their experiences of owning a RB powered S Body? Ireally want it to be better than the scoob i owned
The Subaru enthusiast, however, will see the lack of equipment as a good thing. Equipment is weight. Weight blunts acceleration. Weight is bad.
Think about it, 80% of the guys that swopped an RB into an S13 sold it after a short period, most guys that bought an S13 with an RB in sold it not long after.
Is it a great toy to screw around with, I guess but I think the idea is bigger than the experience.
Flame suit on
PS. my dream was always to put a VG30ET into the S13, would sound great, will spin the shit out of the road....but the idea of all that is bigger than what it will be.
thanks for sharing guys...I allocated a small R30-R40k budget to buy a used car or fix my e30(engineless) when I saw the car in question and quickly convinced myself that I can spend a bit more just to get this car. Now, however, ive read the "why" thread and have a bit of doubt(which is good imo) I was way too impulsive and wouldve mindlessly just bought it

Not to burst your bubble but you will not be able buy even a half decent SX for that kind of money, regardless of its motor.

Maybe I wasnt clear enough ...The RBSX is in the for sale section and is more than R30-40k...I was prepared to increase my allocated little budget to buy this car...
