mmm I think that pink Z31 belongs to a guy name Xavier, I met him on myspace's Z group.(yeah I have a damn myspace). Hey beside the people that we already know on this forum, do you think any of those other Z owners are on Zdriver? Like the RB swapped 240Zs, Maybe theyre all on HybridZ?

That's the problem with the SR20 turbo swaps. They can be made to make from 300 to 350 hp to the wheels, but past that and you're really pushing the SR20 to the limit.
The RB can go a LOT farther and even the L6 ultimately has more potential. It can just move a greater volume of air than the little SR20.
The SR20 is really popular with the 240SX crowd because it's easy to fit the little 4 banger in where the KA24 (also a 4 cylinder) was originally mounted.
For the effort, I would put an RB in my Z before even considering the SR. The amount of time and money necessary to do the swap to an RB is little more than what the SR20 would cost and you'll end up with a lot more car for your effort.

And make more power on pump gas then the L28 is probably capable of making at all
