"Did you say 91 to start it? I didn't see I did oh 90 yes So this was out at the time of the FC RX-7 and the FDRX-7 andThey chose not to put a twin turbo three-roader in that like how could you not dude? Yeah, that seems like I don't think they necessarily were thinking like that maybe there must have been a drawbackThere must have been something because like I don't get it because like that's just like a big body likeGrand Touring type car like that would compete with the I would assume the skylines and like it was3,800 pounds right. Yeah, I mean it's kind of a boat really like for"
"Like do you know what the red top black? Yeah, like silver top red top black top like so the red top comes out of S13 Silvia'sOkay, so the S13 Silvia's were made fromI believe they came in with the SR20 from like 92 to 94 maybe 91 to 94 so I think it's89 but 89 they 180 nine they had the CA theC.A. 18 oh wow, so what's the C.A. 18 it's Just like a lower it's a 1.8 liter and that's actually what came in the 180s X as well"
"...chip DC use and stuff like that. We're definitely not Nissan guys Absolutely not everything that we do every e..."

Hey, and welcome back. I'm Bobby. This is Aaron. Yeah, y'all and you're listening to the right-hand drive guys podcast today is episode 38
We're growing up fast seriously 38 dude 38 that's actually how old I am that's crazy. It's wild
Yeah, so today we're gonna be talking aboutThings that we love I think for the most part. Yeah, yeah JDM engines JDM engines
And so we're trying to kind of keep it likeengines only available in Japan for the most partRight, right like we're not gonna necessarily go on and on about engines that you could get hereRight, we're not gonna talk aboutK-A 24 DEs right whateverYeah, that's the old twoYeah, that's right. Yeah, so we're gonna talk about those and you know a lot of these motors obviously have been talked about and you probably have heard about most of them
But we're just gonna elaborate on yeah, why not right? So we figured you know where where to start right where
Where do you start when there are quite a few awesome engines and and we're not really even gonna be able to hitThat many of them because we kind of want to get in depth about a few. Yeah, for sure
So where do you think we should start dude?
Let's start in the engine you had put in your con Joe racerThe Honda B series shoe the B series. Yes, the B series
The B series has quite a few variants, right?
Yes, there is but the first in foremost have you ever even had a B series?
Yes, my dude actually my first car I ever modified was a DA in tegra. Wow stock with a B18 a1
Non VTeg. Yeah, yeah, non VTeg boys out here LS. Yeah, that's cool though. Yeah, so
And that was the only one you ever had I actually had I had another DA along the line tooBut yeah, never never got into like never had a VTegI never had a VTeg, but I had friends that would let me drive them and oh cool. It was cool
I was into it. Yeah, I definitely experienced it. I was definitely into it
But I mean never had one for myself back in the day especially when likeFunds were a little tighter right like VTeg was like a turbo. Yeah, that's how I felt like I can't afford a turbo
I do have VTeg right for sure and it was like dudeYeah, it was so coolYeah, no and imagine how many people really did fall in love withYou know like those motors. Yeah, just on that sound
Yeah, back in the day that was unique to like the VTeg like a lot of car companies weren't reallyPutting anything out like that with variable valve timing and they weren't like advertising it and likeFeel like it was one of those things probably in the higher-end sports cars and stuff like thatMaybe not even at that point, but like yeah, it was a technology from Formula OneThat they brought down brought down into so cool theseIntegra's and civics and like yeah, these kind of Econocards. Yeah, yeah, it's kind of cool
It's kind of crazy to think about how Honda did that they like took this racing technology and put them in theseLike economy cars ship boxes right right? Yeah, but you know right right but like
Put this tech into them and like made them unique in that sense and that's why they have such a cold following rightI think yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I agree if they were ahead of it and then you saw many many motors follow suitIt's crazy. Yeah after that. There's ecotech my like all of these different and it's like not even VTeg though
Right, right. It's not VTeg. It's not nothing. It's like VTeg. It's crazy. It's like dude when that phone rings dog
But anyways, soThere were a few B-series motors that were unique to Japan and IPersonally have had a few being the B16 B from the Civic type R. Yes, and
So that is you know the 1.6 liter of course with a
Little different compression ratio at 108 to 1 compared to the 1041 that the non type R's had along with quite a few different otherlittle you knowdifferences right right soThese though had 180 horsepower. Yeah, nothing crazy
In a Civic type R that has weight reduction and whatnot. I mean, yeah, that's sick. I mean my
Personal like experience with that engine. I had a buddy back in the day that he had a B16 B in an eG hatchback, right?
Oh nice dudeThat thing and it was on like 14 inch steels. It was completely stripped out like
Dog shift for suspension like nothing crazy, but it had a B16 B in it had a type R motor dudeYeah, and that thing ripped dude like one night he went out racing Mustang GT's dudeHe was walking him like open header just V-tag blaring just like walking Mustangs really like yeahI know it's not like it's not like whatever it's a Mustang, but likeIt's just a four-cylinder CivicOpen header just like in this kid justScreaming dude, like yeah, I mean I like crazy. I yeah, I liked the the motor
I mean, but yeah, I mean it's hard. It's a 1.6 liter
Yeah, it's a screamer, but they actually have the same block as the integral type RB18 yeah, where it's like X amount of millimeters taller, but it still has the same internal like crank and everything is a B16 ASo like it's kind of like a Frankenstein. Yeah, yeah, so yeah
I thought that that was you know pretty cool. So of course there there was that and then you know speaking of the
Integra there there's the JDM IntegraB18 right you know about the same lines right you know withThe type R yes, and so there was it was handpour and polished right, right? You know that was a B18 C right? Yes, that's a B18 C and
soThese were definitely like some of the more desirableOh, yeah, you know Honda Motors right the 16. Yeah, but the 18
Yeah, like everyone wanted to run the 18 right right because that that was like the best or especially in that timeRight range right because what what did it claim for power?
The that was 197 so that's almost 20 more than the 16 right? Yeah, so yeah, of course like that's like the
Yeah, that's the one right it already has that extra 20 of that you would want to start with anyway if you're gonnaYou know whatever build the head and get a little bit more out of it or whatever it might be yeah, I mean and soIt's kind of it is crazy though like these were the swaps right before K series came aroundYeah, these were the swaps. Yeah, I think they do it. I mean yeah, they still I would take a B over
But now it's like it's like the support like a is like bees are like the classic. Yeah, now where K's is like the new thing
But it's not even really new right the case kind of crazyRight, he's one and years oldYeah, it's been a long time like it's kind of crazy for sure, you know, so but yeah, so but the K's are the next generationRight, right. Yeah as far as that's in yeah, yeah once the case came into play. I don't think there were any bees
especially likeLike the ones that are that we're talking about the B18 C's and the B16s those all ended in what 2000Yeah, exactly. Yeah, so right when I fully agree it is the new one, right? You know, it's the only it's the only one
I mean they're still coming in the car behind us, right?
This comes to the case here. Yeah, so I mean that is like it was introduced in 2001 and you know
It's it's definitely crazy how once this case series came out and all of thatSupport instantly kind of like transfer to those right right like all of the Honda guys were so excited becauseThey finally got something new right right right like once hybrid racing came out with that K swap kit likeAnd there's a few other companies as well that made the swap parts and stuff but like yeah, and so once it became easyRight, yeah, it was on yeah, everybody's putting those in their eG's like there's case everywhere right there's case in a chords
Tsex is the vans I think well maybe not the vans butThe CRB's like all these cars have K's so like yeah, you get the blogs you can get the heads, you knowYou can you can run them right through and so so but there are JDM case. Yes, the K the K20 a
Like the high performance K20 a came in all of the JDM civic type oursOh, right like starting at 0 on yeahAnd so these came with 217 horsepower so anotherThat's another 30 almost horsepower than the B18. Yeah, so that's like kind of a pretty good upgrade, right?
Like really I mean soBeyond you know that K20 a like the straight up K20 a of course there's a bunchYou know more like yeah, sub engines that came in like the USDM Honda CivicBut the A was like high for like the B16 like in the B8 to see yes exactlyAnd you know that's the of course there'sYou know
So much support for these that they're gonna continue to be popular like even after these came out the people that wanted to try it in trueThese will eventually be the tried in true right right exactlySo I mean, I think that you know that's kind of where we wanted to go on on the Honda's the B in the K seriesThere is of course, you know the H in the D series that we could talk about there were a fewYou know series I believe too right that there were some JDM specific andEngines but you know for the time that we have I think we kind of touched on
The ones that really made a huge difference and kind of changed the game right you know for sure and soComing off from Honda yep, you know where we got to go next right we we got hit I mean you know what it is the Nissan enginesThe NissanL.A.R. and the RB. Yeah, and and so we'll start with the RB and
You know a lot of guys know a lot about these motors. They're absolutely
Popular right they came in skylines. Yeah, yeah, you know from the early days right right they
Yeah, they've been around since you know the HR 31 right isEven even that old yeah, right the 20 came in in the HR 31 right right but as far as like theI guess the sought after generations they started in the R32 with the RB 20 yeah theRB 26 andKind of went on from there they had the RB 25 discontinued the 20 in the 33 models and then yeah 26 states throughout
Yeah, of course 32 33 34 yeah, so like that one is likeSo right right so when you're starting out like what you got you have an RB 20Yeah, yeah, I got an RB 20 and so those are putting down about215 horsepower and rate around200 foot pound of torque right so that's like pretty decent like when we're comparing that you knowThat's a case series. Yeah, you know, but from an older
Small turbo vehicle right small displacement just because it's an inline six. It's only a two liter right so like
It's pretty small stroke and pretty small bore. Yeah, so that's why they tend to be a little bit smoother and they have that like
smooth sound to them right because of the the short stroke in the small bore and just because like it's that muchDisplacement over six cylinders whereas like whatever a K 20. It's the same displacement, but four cylinders right
So it's kind of kind of wild to think about right that's the route that they went. Yeah, it is
I mean, there's a lot more here to get the same, but it's also like over 10 years earlier. Yeah, so you know
Just there's a lot of technology that progresses in 10 years, especially during that time. Yeah, yeah, you know
So right so of course RB 20 so those came in like you said our 32Non GTR models right the GT STs had the the turbo model and then they had in a ones that had single cam, but we're not even thereYeah, there's a there's a lot of that but the that is what's so cool is that you know Nissan did keep these Arbis for JapanYeah, we didn't get these over as you mentioned earlierWe had some other models that were what are other engines that were widely used but nothing like this right it we yeah
We definitely did not get the Arbis and so you move from the RB 20 up to the 25 right and so when theyTook away the 20 in the sub model 33s. Yeah, this is what they replaced it with right on the GT STs or the GT S 25
T for the 33s and the GT Ts on the 34 they had an RB 25 DETWhich as you can guess it's a 2.5 liter turbo in line six still
Yeah, I mean it's kind of the same thingTrident-trude engine like very reliable you can't you can't really mess them up unless you really try and soThe 33s came with an RB25 DET that put out 250 horsepower and235 foot pounds torque but then in 98 when the R34 GT Ts came out they added in the NIO right right whichincluded the
VBL or theVariable valve timing right and so that actually is kind of wild because it added a25 horsepower getting it up to 276 right up to that 276 mark right right right yeahYeah, and the NIO is like all the Nissan engines that have NIO I forget it would exactly a stands for but has to do with like being an economytypeUpgrade, you know like yes, it's new, but it's like NissanYeah, I got it right here. So yeah, yeah, it's Nissan ecology oriented variable valve lift and timing. Yeah, that's the
So all the NIO engines that's what it means, but like really it'sMore power. Yeah, I guess what like I always saw it as like oh, it's the NIO. It's a newer it has like more
Yeah, but like when you really look at I just thought that was kind of funny that it's likeIt's the new economy. Yeah, like it like that such like yeah, no and so
It I mean like so the 34 I have has the NIO and I mean it's smooth. It's like it's
It's snappy like it's a nice motor for sure. It's all stock so like I feel like I got a good representation of this and it's like a pretty nice motor
Yeah, yeah, 100% and like except those are bulletproof like you leave aloneYeah, they have like a turbo issue because I believeForget what you're that switch to it, but the 25s the RB25s had aPlastic wheel on the turbo like an impeller wheel or whateverSo if you up the boost anywhere over 10 it breaks apart destroys itself, but classic and it's also also like the weak spot and what's prone to break butEasily upgradable if that's what you're gonna do. Yeah, I mean I like all these guys getting GTTs
I think I mean I think they're in good shape regardless, right?
soOf course, you know RB 20 RB 25. Yep, and then you know everybody's favorite whatever you want to say
Like the most popular motor the RB 26 dbt. Yes, the twin turbo
What year was the first the R32 the first one had this?
89 or 90 yep, so if you're if you think about it like this cast iron block engine comes outYeah, and let's just say 89 rightKills it for another 12 years like that's wild like thatYou know you would have thought that along with you know the RB 25 had those upgradesYou would have thought that the 26 would have gotten some sort of upgrades like thatYeah, but they just kept it just hammer right there
There are a few small differences like internally like with the block designI believe in like the there was like a crank collar issue on some of the firstR32 RB 26 is where likeThe snout on the crank would wear outAround the oil pump and it would lose oil pressure and blow up much and the fix was to likeGet a collar welded on the front of your wow. Yes, pretty extensive like
but that was the fix andNese on later on fixed it. That's like why you see sometimes if you see him for sale
They'll have shorts now crank or long snout crank like yeah, the long snout is what you want but likeI don't know. It's pretty crazy to think that that would that would ever happen to begin with but yes
It does I mean, yeah, I guess you could see it right just becauseThe way that like they put out this motor so early and like sometimes tough rightStuff happens. Yeah, it's just to the cracks, you know
And then so yeah, I mean these motors of course wereWere like the the final skyline like this was what you would want right like if you could get itIf that's what you were into because they were putting out, you know, even though it says the sameBase 276, you know horse power. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was always over 300
Yeah, it would they say yeah, they say to it it was more like316, you know, but awesome because of that whole thing. Yeah
Because of that whole thing, you know with the cars having to be thisYeah, soAnd then of course they had a few special editions like theRB 26and one in the Z2 as well as the RBX GT2Yeah, so there was there was a few you know the RBX came in what the400 are yeah, so you know they did do a few things with it but not to like the
The general public right like they were way more limited, you know those upgradesSo yeah, I mean that's like the RB motor that'sYou know definitely one of the pricierYeah pricier engines engines the swap out days and pricier to build as well and we and that's the thing because we didn't get themRight, so as opposed to the 2jz the 2jz we did get yeahWe got a ton of and there's tons of tuners in America that do their hands in 2jz for a long time. Yeah
Not the same case for the RB's yeah, I mean yeahOf course dudes were getting them shipped over swap and whatever right but most of the stuff you're getting for ourB's you're having to go to Australia or from Japan to buy as far as because those are the dudes that have beenMessing in on longest. Yeah, I know it stinks like when when I first got the 33 and yeah, that's the challenges that
I'm trying to find a tuner here. I'm trying to find somebody that just is used to messing with these cars and
Very challenging. Yeah, very challenging. You wouldn't think so but it kind of is
Yeah, but there are some guys that have made names for themselves like more specificallyUP garage. Yeah, like I I definitely would like to send my 33 to them because
They've gotten they've been getting deeper and deeper into getting them more like restored and more to like a healthyStandpoint and not just a all-power, but like a reliable power thingYeah, you know, which I think is a lot of guys go way too quick into like the single big turbo and just want to blow it out asHeavy as they can when that's maybe not long-term. Yeah, you know, so
But there are some guys now of course after I send my car to somebody that maybe doesn't necessarily know but hey, that's okaysoHave you heard of the three-roader?
Absolutely. I've been seeing I've like these just came I mean they've been popular right people have been building like but they just like this
Resurgence of the three-roader just came around. Yeah, I feel like a bunch of youtubers have gotten like some rotary cars here recently
Yeah, not recently but like in the past few months and like kind ofYeah, you're seeing them more often now I guess yeah, they're like all big three-roader brilYou know and I knew it was it's obviously it's a wankleRotary but with the third instead of just two right right there's three rotors right so you can create more horsepowerAnd you would think that would their three-roader would it came in their sports car, right? Yeah
But it would have came in our except what came it would it come in the CosmoWhich was like a two-door like kind of a luxury-ish likeDang big car not a sports car at all it didn't come with a 5-speed transmissionNothing but it was a it was a Mazda Cosmo and like back in the dayI would always see on the forums like whatever the rotary dudes talking there whatever Doritos andThey would always say oh, yeah the Cosmo swap and I'm like what is that even
But I guess that's the engine what it's called the three-roader's called a Cosmo or whatever. Yeah, I thought to myself right? I didn't get it, but then like
You see the Mazda Cosmo and you're like what that's like what they're talking aboutYeah, it's just like it's a strange looking car and I don't think they made them that many years either so they're kind ofYeah started in 1990 like you're saying andIt was the first ever twin turbo power car with the only three-roader engine ever to reach mass productionYeah, so like twin turbo three-roader and that what so what years was it made?
Did you say 91 to start it? I didn't see I did oh 90 yes
So this was out at the time of the FC RX-7 and the FDRX-7 andThey chose not to put a twin turbo three-roader in that like how could you not dude?
Yeah, that seems like I don't think they necessarily were thinking like that maybe there must have been a drawbackThere must have been something because like I don't get it because like that's just like a big body likeGrand Touring type car like that would compete with the I would assume the skylines and like it was3,800 pounds right. Yeah, I mean it's kind of a boat really like for
What it is the 20 BREW the triple rotor it was a two-literThat's it like yeah, you're right. That is crazy came with automatic transmission
Yeah, they didn't come for speed automatic. Yeah, did not come anything else. So I mean they're kind of dorky looking right?
Yeah, they yeah, I wouldn't get one but the motor sweet. Yeah, I mean like you can tell the motor sweet so
I mean this is part of the thing right at the time they didn't realize maybe what they had or what they're doing or they didn't thinkAnybody would be able to I don't know but it turns out to be a monster. Yeah, right turns out to be
The rotary engine worth running. Yeah, well, I mean yeah, like
People make their own three rotors and four rotors even yeah like because it all it is is theseDoritos yeah, yeah, I mean blocks you bolt together. I guess you say so it doesn't take like that much
Like it wouldn't be like adding pistons on to an engine right that sounds like almost impossibleIt just sounds crazy. It just sounds crazy, but like it is kind of possible with
Rotaries I guess you could right you're just bolting on it's like parts like a clutch. Yeah kind of putting another plate in a clutch
Yeah, kind of yeah, sothe three rotor I meanDefinitely probably not that cool to start, you know, not a cool car thatYeah, yeah, definitely a cool engine. I can't think of anything else. It is so mismatched that like could have been in something else so much cooler
Right. Yeah, like you know me they really messed up like I can't think of anything else that would be like
Dude, I can't even think of anything else and soYou know kind of on the subject of like you know cars that were not necessarilySuperverse on but you know obviously understand that there's value throughout all of the differentmakes, you know the SubaruEJ 22G. Yeah, okay is a
Turbo dual overhead cam boxer motor that only came in those GCA STIs like the 22B GCAYeah, and so what's up with those those put down, you know, of course the276 base horseSubaru with that too. Yeah, they did yeah, so you know what it was only making 250. Yeah, no, yeah for them. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
butReally like this you know the GCA is iconic and this was the motor before the EJ25 which we did get this was the motor that wasPowering them through all of thoseRally challenges all of you know all of those world championships that they had was this motor and it was likeThe big brother to the EJ 20 which came in the WRXs and stuff and we also got thatThis was like just that forbidden fruit for those Subaru guys like that one motor
Yes, that we couldn't get here, but that dude shows up with the EJ 22 and you're like, oh shit. That's JDM
Yeah, yeah, that's how damn dogs you get a front clipYeah, so we just figured we'd touch on the Subaru real quick, butYou know before we run out of time we absolutely wanted to hitNissan's kind of other I guess I don't know I would say like golden motorYeah, yeah, I mean in I don't know like that's JDM only right, you knowOf course like the VQ series especially with the rear-wheel drive. It's JDM only and that's the SR20 DETs
Oh, yeah, they pull a premium a week before race wars. Let me tell you yes
It they really do especially out of a set of integrals dude. Yeah, you take SR20s out of integrals before race wars
Where are the engines dead 40 weight 50 weight dude tell me about itSo the Nissan SR20 DETcame in the180s X theSilvia KsAll the Silvia'sAll the S chassis pretty much and it is a two-literTurbo four cylinder. Yeah, so
They are very sought after especially in like the drifting world. It's like considered gods engine dude like
soOkay, I'm sorry not to interrupt you, but I was always confused. What's with the different valve cover colors?
Like do you know what the red top black? Yeah, like silver top red top black top like so the red top comes out of S13
Silvia'sOkay, so the S13 Silvia's were made fromI believe they came in with the SR20 from like 92 to 94 maybe 91 to 94 so I think it's89 but 89 they 180 nine they had the CA theC.A. 18 oh wow, so what's the C.A. 18 it's
Just like a lower it's a 1.8 liter and that's actually what came in the 180s X as well
It came in the first couple years of the Silvia and180s X's sothe red top came in like 91 or 92 I believe inthe Silvia's yeah, and then wheneverThe 180s X's started getting theSR20 that was the black top. I believe that was like
It might have been around the same time it might have been like 91 to 98was the black topSR20 D. and yeah, and those came out of the 180s X's so then you also have the what they call a notch top and
that came in the S14 andS15 and the difference with that one isIs it had the VVL the variable valve? I see so that makes they were a little bit different and they had
throughout all the years they had wellFrom the 14 and 15 had different turbos than the 13 they all came with like T25s small guysYeah, yeah, yeah, that's kind of what it seems like the 15 the S15 spec are had likeThe big the big factory turbo that you could easily do a factory upgrade type thing you wouldn't have to update your injectors and nothing like thatbut so yeah kind of seems likeThey pretty much started out at about 200 horsepower up to those notch tops that you're talking about up to
250 horsepower. Yeah, and
Yeah, I mean theyThey definitely are their own animal. Yeah, you know talking about the RB's and stuff for sure
Though like they're very different. They have so different like it's crazy
Just even the sound the snappiness the response like like the RB isMuch more like refined and smooth and I feel like the SR is like just like a bad out of hell like it's like just this likecrazy raw likeYeah, for sure and they they have their own like quirks about them like they have rocker arms thattend to go bad and hydraulic lifters that you know go bad over time that you know kind of need maintenance if you're gonna be beating on the car all the time
Yeah, but you know if you take care of it likeThey don't take care of you either there's plenty of 400 horsepower SR is out there that take a beating and you know as long as you'reKind of doing your maintenance and keeping everything in check. They're not that bad
So SR20 is not that bad this guy says so yeahOkay, so what's your favorite JDM only motor?
What's your favorite well of course an RB, but I don't know which one like Ilike the 20 but that's only because I've hadHad him for a while I had one of my skyline and thenWhenever I had nest 13 back in the day that was my first engine swap in my car that I've ever ever did was an RB 20 in my13 so definitely have love for those but IWould like a 25 I would I think a 26 would be sick in my city
Yeah, it's like that's my favorite because I got it, but also you knowJust I'm just gonna say the RB series period is probably my favoriteWell, I'm gonna you know, I'm gonna surprise you and say I really kind of think the SR is likeLike the noises, huh? No, I think that the fact that it was one like one motor with
multiple like kind of revisionsYeah, but stayed itself that whole time as opposed to and I mean granted that we're not talking about thisMotor being in as many variants as the RB so I'm sure the R&D on it didn't go as far because it's just in the S chassisYou know, but I just think like dude. I've seen these dudes beating the living piss out of these SRs
Yeah for eight hours straightYeah, coming on and off the track and these things powering some of the nasty as drift cars. Yeah, and
Yeah, I'm sure they got their issuesBut like to me there's something about a four cylinder that will keep up with a six cylinder that just like I don't knowI just think that's sick like it winds up higherYeah, it rips harder and yeah, dude. It's like a raw little like it's like
Yeah, they make they make some cool noises and yeah, they definitelyYeah, I mean I like my RB don't get me wrong. I love the smoothness. I love like that sound and that
progression of sound like as it goes up through the RPMsBut yeah, this car back here kind of changed my thought onDSRs because I'd always heard about the swaps. I'd always heard yeah, especially back in the day
How in demand they were yeah, but I never really understood and now I can kind of see likeYeah, you can you can make them work for you. They'll work hard. Yeah, dude. They they'll rip like
Yeah, like I said back in the day. I mean foreign horsepower SRs. Right that was
And that was on that tech too. Yeah, that was old tech. That was you know
