Nissan Gloria Replacement Engines
The Nissan Gloria evolved through eight critical generations from 1960-2001: Y30 (1981-1985) with RB20E/RB20DE engines, Y31 (1985-1988) introducing RB20DE/RB20DET, Y32 (1988-1993) featuring RB20DE/RB20DET and early RB25DE, Y33 (1993-1998) with RB20DE/RB20DET/RB25DE, and Y34 (1998-2001) introducing RB25DE/RB25DET. All RB20 engines (Y30-Y34) suffered timing chain tensioner failures addressed in Nissan Service Bulletin NTB01-015, while RB25DET turbo variants across Y32/Y33/Y34 generations share boost control solenoid (15000-60F00) vulnerabilities regardless of year. The Y34 generation adopted advanced RB25DE/RB25DET engines with revised cooling but inherited head gasket vulnerabilities from predecessors.
Nissan Gloria Models & Engines Codes
The Nissan Gloria series encompasses multiple engine families spanning all generations, with each family sharing common failure patterns and component compatibility across variants.
- RB20E: 2.0L SOHC (Y30, 1981-1985) - Timing chain tensioner (13200-60F00) failure across all variants
- RB20DE: 2.0L DOHC (Y30-Y34, 1981-2001) - Head gasket (11020-60F00) issues in all generations
- RB20DET: 2.0L Turbo (Y31-Y33, 1985-1998) - Turbocharger (15000-60F01) and intercooler problems
- RB25DE: 2.5L DOHC (Y32-Y34, 1988-2001) - Timing chain guides (13210-60F00) failure pattern
- RB25DET: 2.5L Turbo (Y32-Y34, 1988-2001) - Boost solenoid (15000-60F00) and turbo issues
