> RB is a heavy mofo, and the guys who have track cars with RBs are useless whores, youtube 200sx RB swapped lapping videos (UK and dutch guys), they suck. LT1 … no… just go LS, it sounds badass, but no. I’m not talking about guys who spend $$$$$$ on 2JZ swaps and what have you moving the motors meters back (exageration lol)… those are beyond the hopes and dreams of most of us.

Yea, I’m with Dan on this, not to mention my statment.

“Are you kidding me?” x2

I have an RB in my car, its not a useless whore…  
I drift with it quite fine…I have video for proof.

It DOESN’T feel heavy at all, and with coilovers it felt amazing. Braking was a little off, only because my breaks were on their way out anyways, BUT I still had no problem, even with my no life’d brakes.

The only noticeable difference between the motors as far as weight is the steering. Clearly this motor wasn’t meant for the S-Chassis, and my steering feels slightly different, but still not a huge factor.

It doesn’t feel heavy at all, despite what people “research”. I first hand can experience this every single day…I’m also winter driving it and…its completely fine.
