s13 is the chassis/model code. All 240sx(usdm)/silvia or 180sx (JDM)/200sx(EDM) will have this code. The letters before s13 signify type of motor in. In my case its HS13 because I have the ka24e motor (89-90 models). 91-94 models would be cosidered MS13. I dont think ive heard of RBs13 but there is RPS13 (sr20det powered). Where did you hear RBs13? Maybe someone said it to signify an RB (skyline motor) powered s13, in which case it was a motor swap.
