XAT has done several RB25s, and its not terribly different.

We would do it as well. We will be doing some slightly more custom rb26 projects in the very near future, not to mention I will be working on beefing up mine.

the funny thing is that i'm actually serious.


Ok, if you are serious then please set me straight cause i'm a little confused.

When exactly did the rb26dett come out? The a33 is the 5th gen maxima(2000-2003), the a32 is the 4th gen maxima(1995-1999), so that means the a31 is the 3rd gen maxima (1989-1994). If i am correct in the model numbers then that means the rb26 was out before 94? I thought the 26 was introduced later than that.

The Cefiro is the equivalent of the Infiniti i30 and i35.

I'm sure my math and or reasoning is wrong somewhere here so could you please clarify for me. I'd like to find of few of these cars you speak of.

RB26 was in the 89-2001 GTR among others, so at very least it was out in 89. There have only been very minor changes over the years

The A31 was its own car with no US equivalent. The a32 on was the same as the i30/35. It was RWD (supossedly available in AWD) and form what I know equiped with a rb20de, rb20det, or rb25de depending on model. I believe this was the car that started the rumor the the old q45 had a rb26 in japan cause there is a loose similarity in the looks. However I was not aware of the cefiro being actually available with a 26...thats pretty nice. Here is a pic



Slightly off topic, but what the hell.......
