Rb26dett Help

[R32NZ]

Hi im from new zealand and recently i bought a r32 shell and i plan on dropping an r32 gtr engine into it. The one im looking at its imported from Japan and completely stock. I was wondering what was changed in the japanese engine to make it 276Hp so i could bring the engine to 320HP which the worldwide models came as stock.

Thanks

"worldwide" model? The only R32 GTR that was released from Nissan was the 1000 GTR's in Australia in 1991 i think it was.

These horsepower numbers appear modest at first but stock RB26DETT engines have been dyno tested close to the 320 horsepower mark. The reason some RB26DETT engines put out 320HP and others don’t is due to environmental restrictions. In Japan, every production car is restricted to 276HP. Therefore, Japanese versions of the engine put out 276HP and unrestricted or non-Japanese versions put out 320HP.

Actually the Japanese models put out "a nominal 276hp". This is the result of the law in place in Japan, which penalised cars producing more than 276hp. So the manufacturers declared their cars to only produce 276hp, even though everyone knew they produced considerably more.

Oh okay, Thanks for the help.

Also there was a small yellow restrictor in an air line that came on all stock RB26s. that limits boost/power on a stock engine to said 280hp.

when you remove that yellow thing, youll get a little bit more boost and more power...

100 were delivered to Aus in 2 batches. 30 went to racing and 70 were privately purchased.
