the rb26 is one of the strongest well built motor ever made with more head flow
than the 2jz . I always wanted to see one and hoped i could actually drop in one on my old sc300 because i had an rb26 laying around the garage, but all the quotes i got were ridiculous. That car is seriously awsome to JDM for my blood, but awsome. Great to hear it's owned by a woman too

but then again japan swap ls1 into FD3s, 20B into hachi's, SR20 into 300zx.
bascially any motor into any car laying around.

All of the RBs from 20 to 30 are great engines with alot of potential, BUT it is in no way shape or form stronger than a JZ engine. You just cant do the same things with the RB that you can a JZ and expect it to last as long. Its also alot cheaper to get higher power out of the RBs in Japan
