    Its the best way to make full and valid tehcnical decision as to whether or not you would like to spend £2000 from start to finish on a full SR > RB conversion

    Stick with the sr dude.
    Rebuild it, proper sized turbo and run e85, itl be reliable, feck all lag and lots of torque

    I love the sound of rb's but the rb26 is prone to melting pistons from fuel starvation down the rail and are well known for sh1te oil flow. I think the rb25 shares some of those problems too, but i could be wrong.

    I was told recently too that the design of the rb pistons really help in destroying head gaskets, if your getting one do the HG before ya even stick it into your car.

    end of the day its your choice, but i know what id be doing
