Yea I got it for a grand so I no couldn't realy nea that it was originally the comy 4 cylinder motor but it was swapped for the rbde once I het my turbo it will be a gts-t so to say lol still tho it's a four door slider how awesome is that and oh yea ne one no a good place to find a good deal on some decent suspension? I'm in Okinawa lawlz so ne thing in the jap lands

C-unit · 03-31-2010, 05:05 PM

icic. try upgrage and autobac. I know there is upgarage somewhere in okinawa but you gotta find the address.

yahoo auction is also good place to look if you know how it works.

GL with your build. I would swap a s15 sr with 6spd into that thing..lol

iSLYD · 03-31-2010, 07:05 PM

Haha nab I been wantin am rb since I was infhe states I was gonna swap one onto my 240hatch but couldn't find one. Besides this was just swapped into here lol and that would kinda be goin backwards and more costly u no lol but thatlnls alot tho

karl wasabi · 03-31-2010, 07:53 PM

Wow, RB20DE huh? Interesting.

iSLYD · 03-31-2010, 08:24 PM

yea no power on the rb20de. You should be able to pick up a rb20det for really cheap. My buddy got his rb25det for $300.

Is it 5 speed already?

Oh and don't go to Autobaks! Prices are way to high. Only little things like bolts and crap like that.

jzepol1985 · 04-01-2010, 12:17 AM

I think I might have some friends still stationed in oki that may help you out. I will check and PM you.

haha, yeah I say interesting cause RB20DETs are slow (I have one). I can't imagine how slow a non turbo will be. lol. Not hating, just saying.

*fliprayzin240sx* · 04-02-2010, 02:25 AM

Man, dont wanna sound like a dick but you're getting excited for getting that car for $1k? For as much work you'd have to do to get that car to be fun, you might as well have spent more on a better car.

PS: I would never buy a car that a HS kid here have driven...too much mickey mouse shit.

Lol very true but it's not more excited I got that car it's more that I have my very dieT project car that I will be getting off it's feet for the first time plus I went to a JU today and met some guys out there that have some connections on some rb25 motors for the low so things are looking up honestly I'm just glad I don't have to walk around Kadena anymore I dependents is so sweet when u don have it for a while lol bu Ray I really appreciate theconcern hopefly I can het this into something really worth lol

*fliprayzin240sx* · 04-04-2010, 05:23 AM

All I was trying to say is that you should have just bought a car to get around first. Gives you time to look around and see what kind of deals are out there, while not stressing about having to worry how to get your family around. Worry about a project car later when you have the housing situation settled. I waited roughly 4 months before I picked up my shit.

Plus, you'd be surprised what you can have once PCS fire sales begins. Casey/Hypnotik picked up his 97 Kouki NA S14 (shit was cleaaaaan) for $1k and it was unmolested with a year JCI left on it. Deals like that are around if you would have played it right.

rweezly_s13 · 04-05-2010, 12:47 PM

fliprayzin240sx isn't lying; come pcs season,
ppl will do anything to get rid of their cars!!!
buy i say yu got a good deal still, the car is pretty clean
seeing how i knew the last two owners

T chop · 04-05-2010, 02:45 PM

Waste of time and money, GTS-T's go dirt cheap. Why did you buy this?

i met a guy that has a r32 with an rb20det and hes pushin about 250 which is a nice power im thinkin so its now more of wether im gonna get a new rb20 or just add turbo lol i think ima not go for the 25 cuz the taxes and crap are gonna bend me over and put one in me lol!! so i figure rb20det for cheap just gota find the stuff oh yea i think i found a turbo setup for 170 just need an intercooler and turbo headers to go with it so i mean like on the lines of cheap and a nice start seeing as this will be the first rear wheel drive car im really gonna have i wanna keep it in a safe range for my abilities also u no
