I found out about ths engine while I was scouring the world for a cefiro for my old man... and I've found it in Nissan Altima 2.4 (Ceffy's with 2.4 litre RB24S engines) around Asia mostly (specifically in Saudi Arabia and the Phillipines).

Its apparently a inline 6 carbed engine rated at 141HP.

I'm also making a website cataloging most of the RB series engines, and the cars they were in, so does anyone have any more info on this wierd and wonderful RB engine (and yes it IS an RB engine).

Apparently these engines also exist:

RB24S

RB30S

CA16DE

CA18S

CA20S

SR18DE

RB20E

But I'm not really after info on em

RB30S VL Commodore (New Zealand model)

CA16DE EXA (the targa top ones)

CA20S S3 Bluebird

RB20E Skyline pov pack (apparently these even come in a NEO form in R34s??)

and ive seen a video with an r31 coupe with an RB24 of some sort with triple carbs and a heap of stuff done to it and it sounded horn!

yeah RB20E's are the Plasma series Engines from R32 onwards, along with RB25E are options on 32's, 33s and 34's.

Hey you'd be a good person to ask, know of any 1989 Cefiro's goin around with RB20DET's or RB25DET's in em that are for sale? Preferrably Auto (for my old man, I want the engine)

i'm interested in the 2.4 engine, after all i am looking into getting a 32 with either a rb25 or rb20.

i called the distirbutor here once to ask them about parts for the RB20 or RB25 engines, their response was that they never had any parts for any engine that has initials starting with RB, also they told me that spare parts for the CA20 engine are available (orignally on a laurel).

i guess the parts are interchangable between the CA20 and the CA18, but what about the altima's 2.4 and the R32's RB ?

many thanks

heard quite a bit about the rb24s but nothing exciting.

also dont forget the sr16ve.

there were a numbers of other rb motors but they were specials put together by tuners so not nissan. never heard of an rb 25e I have heard of and driven an and rb20e yuk yuk yuk they wont go over 150 or 160 klms some one told me. I might know of an rb 20det cefiro auto here in aus. and lastly dont for get the rd28 diesel as used in the laurels and a few other cars.

cheers

I believe there were some diesel R30 and R31 Skylines in Japan. Perhaps this engine saw use in those as well. Will get back to this thread with more info.

i meant if they were compatiable in terms of pistons, rings, bearings, belts and bearings seals...etc.

because as far as i know, the 1jz engine shares a lot with the 2jz, thats why many people around here are getting 1jz powered mark ii's. just wanted to know if it was the same with the skylines.

RB 24S replaced the L24,L28 .for counties like carbean that cant fix RB20E.

2 liter block and crank with 3 liter bore size.RB30S is also speced for the R31,GULF STATES.

My RB20E R31 passage goes good now ive using a rb30e auto trans controler.

I have a RD28 manual fitted in pintara wagon.all factor R31 diesel bits.good for towing.13.5 km/l worst tank.4200 rpm in gear on governor[5500 free rev] loaded or un loaded..

well cefy's are the old maxima's... so I guess the RB24S was the standard maxima engine in that region... come to think of it, I think Sri Lankahad the same car.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
