Why would you want to 'do up' a NA RB20?

im just curious and want to build a good engine up from scratch then when im of my p's i will be bolting on the turbo and therefore will have a good engine to handle the whole setup

and thanks for mentioning RB26 injectors

and remeber reading somewhere about 26 cams too. But m not sure about the solid lifters in 26's

thanks for the REAL input

Why would you want to 'do up' a NA RB20?

Why wouldn't you?

For a lot of enthusiasts out there turbo is out of the question and a lot of people also love a tuff NA.

Sorry can't help you with the info though.

yes but cubes are everything, Na engines require capacity, why hamstring yourself with a 2ltr when you can run a 3ltr with 26 head. Run comp up to 11:1 . E85 and off you go.

or at least run the RB26 crank and rods in the rb20.

BEZERK R32 RB26 crank and rods is this expensive to do and is it a decent upgrade thanks

Depends on how much you can get a crank for......if your trying to do this on the cheap i suggest you leave it as is as splitting an engine to change stroke will require machining and parts, at least rings, bearings and gasket kit. Replace water pump, timing belt, camsafts & gears etc etc. if you then are paying someone else to blueprint the engine you will be looking at atleast $1500 in labour. I reckon to stroke RB20 using second hand parts ie crank and rods, machining and other parts + labour to build.......$5000. Cheapest option would be to get a 3litre and put you head on it.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
