i think the sr gives the car the best weight balance as well as enough power to get it done

suspension will only help your weight distribution so much
since weight distribution is very important in racing
regular driving, probably wouldnt effect much
but for racing, and in a 240, it wouldnt be the best of choices

ok but you are still straining that motor more than a sr. its smaller so its just a tighter rubberband. a sr is already small enough.
when you start going over 300 then you will start to have problems.
and theres a reason that you paid less.
its also a old motor. which comonly means more miles.

(internals) i just dont get why everyone hates on em because they rode in one that wasnt fast cause it wasnt tuned.

Because. And that's all I will say. A little heavier? Ok think about length and balance. Weight within space is what matters.
I've driven tuned and untuned, both garbage.

01-19-2009, 02:25 PM
I voted 2J/1J since I don't really see a point in putting them in a 240. Why put a 700 lb motor in a lightweight chassis when the same power levels can be reached with lighter motors? If big power is what you want, go with an LSx. After all, they weigh less than the KA drivetrain. I would go RB25/26 before the 2J also personally. The only downside the RB26 has over the 2J is cost and parts availablity, but if cost is a serious issue then the inline 6 swaps or LSx swaps shouldn't be considered anyways.
That being said, the only motor in that bunch I would sell before installing if they were all given to me is the RB20. :P

No it does. It's faster and lighter N/A then almost every engine up there. The LSx belongs in every car, its one of the best engines of all time. What's better then having an engine that makes 400 HP N/A and weights less then a KA. It's the ultimate engine.

There's no replacement for displacement, but throwing more cylinders at the problem doesn't make it necessarily better.
RB20 is fine in a R32, not in a S chassis.
Such a piece of shit motor stock.

Sometimes, when people start making fun of the fact that my car prolly drinks gas because it sounds the way it does. It just depends on the company.

All of the motors on the poll have good purposes. Everyone derives their own opionon about a motor from personal experiences. I know setups that have worked great on each of those motors.
Personally I like SR's and LS1's for drifting. I'm more inclined to say SR just because its what I have and I love the feeling of boost and being able to bang the motor off redline all day long :).
