Best engine????

[Aidan Hogan]

I'll be getting a 92 200sx (english) rolling shell soon and was wondering what would be the best engine to put in ??
It is going to be my first drift car that I plan on keeping and working on.
Obviously 1jz and the likes would be unreal but cant afford that much yet!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Aidan.

SR20 or RB25, something that will simply bolt in.

rb for show:rolleyes: sr for go! is the way i see it lots of engines for sale in our own for sale section if your thinking of goging drifting with it next question ya shoud be asking your self it wat sort of set up are ya going to go for i.e full engine rebuild/turbo/clutch/gearbox etc etc

[s13-ste]

if its just a rolling shell there wont be any wiring in it any wa so no matter what you go for your going to have to wire it up!

if you want to go for a CA il sort you out with everything you need to get it running and some more.

CA, gearbox, loom, ecu and safcII,T25, tubelar mani, oil cooler, fmic and drive shafts. €1000

[way2fastforu]

i dont mean actually puttin the loom in man wen i say wirin i ment join the sr an rb loom together so the engine will run prop an all the extras will to...nearly anyone could put a loom in a shell
