RB's didn't come out until the 99 onwards. They are the base model for the Series 8 so if its a 95 your bidding on its definitely NOT an RB.

Only major difference over the RS/RZ/Spirit R models over all others is their differential which is a 4.33. I've been for a drive in an RZ and you do feel a huge difference in take off simply due to this differential.

Added to that these models have larger front brake calipers and the rotors being 314mm instead of the standard 294mm.

Thanks guys. I guess RB for 95 model stands for Type R Bathurst, there is no other way it is RB.
