Under the hood sits a 3.0 L RB-series inline-six consisting of a RB25 head, RB30 block, CP pistons, Spool rods, and Tomei camshafts. It produces 900+ horsepower to the wheels thanks to a Precision 7675 turbocharger making 32 psi of boost, Haltech Elite 2500 Pro ECU, and tune by Matt Sims Performance. As mentioned before power goes through a R33 five-speed transmission with a PPG dog gear set into R32 GTR transfer case and differentials. At the most recent event the car had a best ET of 9.507 sec and best top speed of 157.34 mph.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/kLu_wSxImmE\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/4pEw6XtkP08\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>A few videos of the car before the AWD drivetrain.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/Tign0qKpVbc\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/lwMI1C7zCfU\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/PVHfcT2RY38\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCHY6Gbov0IDVrED-Y76_ksA\">MotiveDVD<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCKBB6RO5gWsuTFPJPgCIOGQ\">FullBoost<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jason Ruby&#8217;s 1990 Nissan Silvia S13 has been powered by a RB-series inline-six for several years.
