RKLamb123 Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 Other than that cover is there any other way to tell the differences between a RB NEO and and regular. There is an engine on EB claiming to be a Neo. But it does not have the cover and its identicle to mine. I assumed mine was a RB out of a Nissan Stagea because of the ECU and some of the newer sensors. But this engine online and from a good seller is claiming to be a NEO. So is there any way to tell by looking other than the cover itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Speed Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Heres a good link with some pictures. It seems like its got a protruding device from the throttle body area and the TB to intercooler connector is a little different. The VTC solenoid looks different and some sensor plugs but I'm not really sure which ones. http://www.skyline-owners-club.com/forums/18141-rb-engines-rb20det-rb25det-rb25det-neo-rb26dett.html NEO is 4th one down, Regular rb25det is the 2nd pic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eh? Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Neo has traction control solenoid, black CAS, looks to have a dull plastic upper timing belt cover vs the R33 shiny metal cover, badge-less spark plug cover. noted the late late late S2 RB25 will also have a black CAS.

Ben Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Link? Maybe we can help you ID it. EDIT: If it's this one, then it looks like a NEO to me based on the differences. I concur - that's definitely a NEO motor (the TB assembly is the big give-away). It's also fairly hammered - the CAS is trashed, the BOV is missing, there's no flywheel or clutch and it has a bent A/C idler... But note that the NEO fitted to the S2 C34 Stagea RSFV (i.e. automatic) does not have TCS, and has a blanking plate over that section of pipework.
