your better off going for a rb25 instead because its virtually the same size and plus i dont think it would fit...but ya can try hey |

You will probably have to change your diff ratio as well or else it will probably be a slug off the line. R32's come standar with 4.1, 4.4 and they arent anything special. |

i wouldn't say the rb20 is a shit design people just havent modded them right plus an fj is older indesign then an rb
it's just when people put an fj in the have to rebuild it
so they usally go all out with it where as most people with an rb20 just put a zorst and maybe a fmic on it with those mods it should be in the 13-14's i reckon |
