Don't bother with it. Yes it's cheap, but they have bad trannies and shitty aftermarket support.Erick Mahle | FullOpp Drift | YouTube

because the rb25 is a pretty big six. rb20 should fit with relative ease. 'least i hope so. plus the 20 is a lot less :)Comment

is the RB25 a 2.5L engine and the RB20 a 2.0L engine? what are the advantages?
I just don't see how swapping a non-bmw motor into a bmw is appealing at all.Recent Rebranding!!

and the only reason im looking into other engines other than bmw engines is because i can find these for a lot less. cost is an issue right now.
unless you have a source where i can get an m90, m50 or s50 for under a thousand? :)Comment

if u want to go with a 2.0L, go for the SR20DET. I would think that is more feasable with more aftermarket support.Claus Luthe is my hero.

The neat thing with an rb20 is if your doing the swap on the cheap,The rb20 tends to still run well on less the perfect tuning. Wheres the Sr20s and rb25s need an almost perfect tune to run well.sigpic340hp V8 e30 FINISHED!!!!!
