AdrianZ Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I've been compairing the RB to the LS1 and it's come down to price i guess. if i can find a good RB cheap I'll go for it. a few questions Is $3300 a fair price for a full R33 front clip? (no gauges) also what kind of gas milage does not 20 and 25 get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karay240 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Assuming you're talking about an RB25DET, a front clip for an R33 for that price isn't bad at all. You can get motor sets for cheaper, but it really depends on how much of the R33 you want in your Z. Also, on a side note, this is not to say that the 25 is a gas guzzler, but you're modifying a car to double your output. . . forget about mileage.

pitty Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 from my mate with a rb25det r33, it doesnt go through too much gas. but like any turbo, if ya keep it off boost then it wont be any where near the usage of the V8. example another mate has a 180sx (in the us its a 240) and if he doesnt wind it up too much, he can almost mathc the mileage of my holden astra (1.8L 4cyl) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianZ Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 Well i'd put it in mostly stock for a while than after i break whatever wants to break like axles and diffs I'll get everything built up and fixed than go for power. i know the LS1s can get 25-28ish on the highway with the 6speed. and my buddies sr20 240z gets about 25-30. So just wanted to know. thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
