The PRP Crank Gear / Crank Pickup for Nissan RB engines is engineered to deliver accurate ignition timing, improved durability, and reliability under high RPM and high horsepower conditions. Designed and manufactured by Platinum Racing Products, this range covers everything from OEM replacement through to extreme motorsport applications.
Available in OEM Replacement, Race Series, and Pro Series configurations, each crank gear is precision-cut from premium billet steel to ensure consistent sensor readings and long-term reliability. Whether you are refreshing a street RB build, pushing a circuit or drag setup, or chasing four-figure horsepower, PRP offers a crank gear solution to suit your exact requirements.
From billet 1045 steel options through to ultra-durable 4140 hardened steel Pro Plus variants, these crank gears are designed to eliminate common RB timing issues while providing strength where it matters most. Sensor angle options, tooth counts, and washer upgrades allow you to fine-tune your setup for maximum performance and compatibility.
Important: V1 and V2 crank gears are not interchangeable due to sensor position differences. If you are unsure which option suits your setup, please contact us before ordering.
