Exclusively powering the Nissan Skyline GT-R models, the RB Engine line fueled the R31, R32, R33, and R34 generations, solidifying its status within these iconic vehicles. The R32, introduced in 1989, gained the moniker “Godzilla” due to its dominant track performance because of the RB26DETT. The R33, unveiled in 1995, built on this legacy with improvements, and the R34, released in 1999, further refined the formula, establishing itself as an automotive legend with advanced features and exceptional performance.

Can you imagine a world without the RB engines? Yeah Neither could we here at Motofutura. With the long standing use of RB engines exclusively used in the Nissan Skyline GT-R models, they significantly contributed to its revered status among enthusiasts and its enduring impact on the automotive landscape.
