so my RB20 is a slug in my Z31 lets be honest the Z31 is no rabbit.

I'm about to sell my Rb20 for 1800-1700 i have a legit buyer friends keep saying to get a tune im way off tune but a tune will not make up for daily driveablity.

my mods are; HE341, 38mm wastegate, cam gears and thats about it, i have 444cc gtr injectors, z32 afm, and nistune ecu waiting to go on, I know te RB will make power im not concerned about power im concerned about daily driveablity torque, it moves the Z but its a 2 liter.... OH i also have ls2 coil packs and my plugs are gapped at .040.

i was considering selling the setup and going VG34et with a HE351 and being happy with my torque, my friends keep telling my to tune, my friends are pro RB i just keep thinking RB makes power but VG33 makes torque.

there's no way on earth a tune will make up for 1.3 liters of displacement? or am I completely off base an wrong? quite honestly i seriously miss my VG30.

You're totally right bro, there's no point in doing anything with a 2.0L, they just don't make torque.

I know but it's a 6 cylinder 2 liter much smaller. And if correct your 4g63 is a amazing motor all the way around.

Ill just assume that this is a april fools thing tongue.gif Stock those motors should be making about 200 hp/pounds of torque, plenty to move the z31 around- Up the boost, and do the work youve done, and you should have more than enough power to scoot along.

Boost and timing, man. Displacement is still displacement, you just have to get some solid low-end boost and decent timing advance (within reason).

The 4G63 is a gutless econobox motor form the 70s until you add boost.
