RB26 vs RB26

[ForsakenTH]

is there a difference between the different RB26s...i know the valve covers change for the chassis but is there other differences between the RB26DETT in a R32 vs R33 vs R34?

I guess I'll be the first one to say it.

Search.

I am not being mean or anything, just do some research.

R32- Most 89-92s had bad oil pump drive collars, resulting in faulty oil pump, resulting in engine failure. Ceramic wheel turbos. Ran about 9-10 pounds boost. All engines came HICAS equipped.

R33- Physically about the same as the R32. Oil pump drive collar problem fixed. Ceramic wheel turbos. Different wiring harness near FPR, different oil fill cap. Ran about 10-11 pounds of boost stock. Don't know if they had HICAS or not.

R34- The popular Red valve cover came into play. Steel wheel ball bearing turbos replaced older ceramic wheel turbos. Ran about 1.0 bar of boost (14ish psi). And many other changes.

as pointed out, there are several changes between each motor. There's nearly a 30hp difference between the R32 and R34 motors. Search and all the information can be found.

Specifically, search for user enginerd posts and R32 R33 R34. He posted a dyno sheet a few weeks ago.

And as you will see by the dyno sheet, there is a 30 hp difference in stock engines, not tuned engines...

I used to feel the same way about people who replied "Search" but now I understand why people reply with that. This has already been discussed and it's a PITA to keep having to reply with the same information. Here's the NICO thread that discusses this exact same topic in which we also told that poster to search (took me two minutes to find). If you take another 5-10 minutes you can find the rest of the differences.
