I met a guy from australia a couple of weeks ago and he reckoned he had a "ute" that ran a 9 second quarter (well 9.4 he said) now he reckoned he used a nissan RB36, 6 cyl tt. now i didnt want to argue here but i dont know of a RB36, as far as im aware both the R33 &R34 both use the RB30.

Should i have planted this guy? Am i write in saying there is no RB36?

Cheers for any closure on this becaus e its been a point of arguement for a while.

RB36...utter bollox
You should have bitchslapped the Spud
All GTRs run RB26DETT as std
There are aftermarket RB27/28 or RB30 conversions

No RB36, maybe you misheard him with his accent or he made a mistake but the rest of the credentials sound realistic so doubt he would have the need to bullshit between a 36 and a 26. The engines are cropping up more and more in different vehicles here now.

RB26 he means.

RB30s arnt in any GTRs, just some, like mine, get used in them so you get more capacity.

Cheers guys, arguement settled. wait till i get to the pub tonight!!

How does the engine codes of nissan engines work again I remember the easy part the numbers refrer to capacity but what do the different letters stand for ? I am sure it was on here i read it?

RB-> engine name
26-> capacity
D -> Double Overhead Camshaft
E -> Multipoint Injection
TT-> Twin turbo
