If its a early 90s car its not a RB26 unless its been swaped out. The a RWD skyline is just as heavy as a LS1 4th gen. The RB26 is under rated you could say but so is the LS1 plus you are NA with a lot more torque.

This guy is blowing smoke and or does not know what he is talking about.

Two separate websites, two separate authors, plus the seller.

Nissan Skyline R32: 3100-3200 Pounds
1991 R32: Engine: RB26DETT

All my facts are right.

Anyways, yes both are underrated, but the skyline is underrated at 280 hp and 350 torque. Actuality: 320 HP 380 Torque. It's lighter, with a little less power. So it'll be a driver race I'm betting if it happens.

Yeah apparently there's a physical restriction on the ECU that stops it from full power, but you remove some kinda yellow physical restriction and your at full power. Then comes a retune and all that shibang haha

Haha turns out I already test drove it before posting on here I didn't even think of that. Just from being in it though, not bad before spool but after it was crazy. I thought it was about the same but my buddies thought it was noticeably faster.
