I agree with Charlvdw, Rat & Poizn... SR20. Especially if its an original s13-SR20 !!
Its a Beautiful motor.

In the long term I would say stay with the SR. cheapish to fix, light and fun, plus if you tell someone you just whipped them with a 2lt turbo its so much more fun! haha

This is a shock coming from you Driftz
I have a RB25 in my S14 and i am telling you to keep the SR20
You have a very good setup and if you not going to go more then 300kw the sr will be awesome ,bigger turbo,injectors ,clutch etc and a good ecu ,the car will be great to drive .
dont think that bigger is always better , a well tuned SR with good bolt-ons has proven itself over and over again.

Engine number matches the original in the service book, or you could do an AA Check to see if engine numbers have ever changed.

For just this reason you cannot change the motor!
