I wouldn't like to take a gamble on someone's guess on that topic.

You would be best to ring your local nissan dealer, give them your VIN number and have them check the difference in part numbers.

After all, if you get it wrong, it will destroy your engine.

One of the RB20's is exactly the same as the R31 RB30's - can't remember which. SO it should be cheap about $70 -$80. Can't see there being a difference, but to be safe Take the old ones with you to a bearing place and they should sort you out. All the bearings have specs on what they are designed for, unlike other a/mkt parts, so you canbe sure you get the right ones. The Genuine Nissan bearings aren't made by Nissan anyway.
