what does the coding stand for

[342Four]

i got a question the other day from a guy at work that i couldn't answer properly

what does the D stand for in the engine classifications ie rb26dett, rb25de etc.

i always thought that it meant dual overhead cams but he thought it stood for direct or something like that (ie rb25de - 2.5 litre direct injection)

now im not sure

can somebody please clarify this 4 me please

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

you thought right

the 'D' does = Double Overhead Camshafts

[scathing]

The first two letters denote the block (RB, SR, CA, VQ, VH, etc).

The next two numbers denote the displacement in 0.1L units.

The next letter on modern engines denotes the camshafts. Most of them just have D for DOHC, although you can get SR20VE and VET's that denote an SR20 with variable valve timing. The VQ35DE has variable valve timing too, and quad cams, so I'm not sure how that works out.

The E is for electronic fuel injection.

I figure you know what the T's are for.

Well duh! It stands for Takumi!

You've got your regular cars, then the ones that work pretty good on the downhill (single Takumi). Then there's the special cars that are Takumi Takumi!, and as every anime fan knows.....when a character repeats something, its got to be good.

assuming that that's a typo and you meant race; i've read here a few times that hte whole race bred thing is a myth and that just because sdu have it up there doesn't make it true.

Yes, only the first word was typo'ed. He actually thought that RB stands for a special wheat-based baked-good that you use in motorsport.

I like to think of my car as rave bread It's full of music and it's good for you!
