RB is an older engine design that was out for so long why? Because it is good. The number of times I have had to open my hood or any other RB powered cars hood for drive ability issue’s in comparison to SR’s is ridiculous. Stock for stock, I would take an RB20 over an SR20 ANY day. Not to mention that SR’s sound horrible, RB’s sound amazing 🙂

I could get more into this, but I’m not going to do so. Especially since this thread is about the best car on SON (which is not mine) and not SR20 v.s RB20.

Don’t bash my opinions 🙂

i can split it into the engine debate thread and we can continue…

you had a super clean stockish RB20 so i am sure you didnt have many issues. i dont doubt the stock sound of an rb20 is better than an sr.

that said, a well-boosted and properly tuned SR with a Reinhard semi-ti catback sounds as good as anything on this planet

are you kidding, rb20 sounds greaaat, better than SR… but again everyone has different opinions. IMO any inline 6 just plain sounds ridiculous turbo or not… 4 bangers sound well… like weed mobiles mostly… heh… a modded SR20DET does sound nice though.

It looked like it was an event of some kind, but still I agree. You’d have everyone and their mother within a kilometer radius complaining that it’s “noise pollution” here, even if it was a legit event. :\

if we are going to argue about the best sounding Nissan motor, Chris would problably agree that;

VH45DE (dual cherry bombs - not sure what chris runs) OWNS ALL

I remember a VH45DE-made into a TT at one of Bings meets. The motor was fucked and I could hear some mad piston slap. Yet the exhaust tone was sweeeeeeet.

Still, best sounding Nissan engine on straight pipe belongs to the RB family. Not so much the 26’s but. Meh

Worst sounding Nissan engine on a straight pipe…VG30DE or SR20DE/T
