Engine Number

[R-SPEC]

car is a r33 gts4 with rb25de

i've read that its supposed to be on the lower exhaust side of the block somewhere but i can't see a thing when looking for it on that side.

helllllp

[R-SPEC]

i'm only asking because i was looking at the previous rwc and it said RB20088570A

i thought engine numbers on RB25DE/DET suppose to start with RB25.....?

[ctjet]

its right where you said...

dont think anyone can help you more than that... its right at the back of the block

[R-SPEC]

but i can't see it man

i look there and all i see is the shield thingo on the manifold and the start of the gearbox...i can't see the block at all.

[ctjet]

do a search around and see if other people have had the same question... im sure they have

heres a quick pic... it right next to where the block bolts up to the gearbox

i cant see it. theres shit in the way.

there's nothing in the way of it on an RB25DET, so in theory yours should have even less in the way...its right down in there, not exactly easy to get at, and it'll probably be covered in shit....so you'll need to wipe it down to be able to read it

[R-SPEC]

this is wat i see when i look down there

should i still be able to see it?

[dezz]

All I remember from my RWC was that the guy wrapped a rag around a really long screw driver, stuck it down there and wiped off some shit to uncover the number

[R-SPEC]

so the number is that big that you can see it when standing over it? assuming its cleaned up?

screw it, i've cut my hand in 7 places trying to get to it lol.

They probably just farked it up on the RWC anyway...your car has an RB25 in it so I wouldn't be too worried..

When I got my RWC (being the first time it was registered in Aus) the RWC place left off the 'RB' part of the engine number.....I didn't notice. Rocked up to my appointment at vic roads and he sent me on my way, and made me book a new appointment just because of that. Had to get a re-write on my RWC etc

[R-SPEC]

thing is, this guy wants to buy it and wants to find out about it so i gave him the vin and the engine number that was on the rwc that i got with the car. then he says he called and the engine number doesnt match the vin

could be just a typo....? i'll tell the guy to put RB25088570A instead of RB20088570A and see if its right

[dezz]

take it to whoever did the RWC, and tell them to check they didn't fark it up

you gotta jack the car up you use a flash light from the passengers side near the back of the bottom end u'll see numbers u need to sand it back to see it... its always covered in shit!
