RB is supposed to be race bred, numbers denote the displacement, d is dual overhead cam, e is electronic fuel injected, and the t/tt is presence of turbo or twin turbo. At least I'm pretty sure that's it.

That "RB" thing is an internet myth. Almost like calling an SR "super rocket", "super race" or something.

Considering the RB20 was the first of the RB's, I wouldn't call that "Race Bred".

Phonetically, aren't our grandkids going to be farked up learning that...

A stands for apple but

B stands for gasoline using cast iron...

yaddayadda ..... and....

R stands for nissan in line 6????????

:P

... not to mention the missus is going to flame me by sayin', "What the hell are you teaching that kid???"

They are already doomed with their fancy beedy eyed robots, 3d printers and levitating hats... "Back in my day" "shut up grandad, why don't ya warm the globe more" they'll say.

Yeah, well, at least with those, they don't have to ask (on a car trip), "Are we there yet?"

hehe...

After a bit of google looking R is a nissan inline 6 cylinder engine and the B is gasoline using cast iron/nickle based block, apparently? and S is 4cyl

I think RB etc are just the engine family. If R was inline 6 then it doesn't make any sense for an SR to be named as it is, same goes for B being gasoline/cast iron/nickle block then what is a CA? They probably stem from some internal codenames used for engine development.

Yea true, I retract my comment.

the R in SR could be aluminium block, hence VR38DETT???

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
