400-450kw mark. Keeping the revs on the low down 8.5k. Came out of a spare block, from a bloke who had it as a spare, but went 3.0L.

Lol These pistons have been measured and tested. Theyre in perfect useable condition. Thanks, be sure to check back in 6-12 months! I just spoke to Adam via facebook. His car held up fine and took a pounding! Mad

FYI Adam is the owner of JEMS.

Becaue theres many examples of stock pistons cracking ringlands. Ive gone aftermarket because they where cheap and for knock resistance (although ive gone e85). Fair play people want a cheap insurance... but insurance from what? Im still yet to come across a stock rod failure thats not caused by rod bolts. Let alone anyone whos come to this topic with a massive failure. Which is the point of this topic and no one has come close to answering yet except for one person. This r34 gtr will destroy so many myths about what people think how a rb26 should be built.

37 comments. Only one thats worth taking serious. Rest is "advice" from people who have never ACTUALLY done it. Infact most of you dont even own a rb26, or even built a engine. "Adam's R34 GTR now makes 557kw@31psi with a small shot of nos, and 509kw@29psi without nos. It has a stock RB26 with cams, gears, springs, studs all drop in, HKS T51R turbo, custom fuel system with triple 044 and under car surge tank all manufactured in house, nismo cooler, os triple plate clutch, intercooler, all controlled by a Haltech Platinum Pro and I/O box setup. Adam wants to see what the stock bottom end can take. Looking forward to power cruise tomorrow." -Just Engine Management Keep your eyes peeled ladies.

How so? Lol im using stock rods with pistons? Im stating stock rods or any rb26 rod will be harder to bend? Like i said lol Im not putting chinese h beams in my engine. Ill stick what nissan made. Anyways this post has turned to what i should do. As far as im concerned its not your build its mine. Ill do whatever im gunna do. Lets keep it on topic. Only one person since has actual evidence of rods out performing, rest are just irrelevant "comments"

Pistons where $300 barely used with rods lol im building the engine myself.

Have you seen the size of the rods? One of the reasons the rods are almost bullet proof is that fact the stroke is so short. The pistons are also really short and stumpy. The leverage needed to bend them would be rediculous (Never said is impossible) Im not using stock rods cos im cheap. Im using them to prove a point.

Thanks Simon only person with credible evidence! Im planning to run forged Jun pistons on stock rods. 450kw mark on a t04z. Limiter 8-8.5k also.

Id1000s, good for 400kw used for 1hour. New injecor baskets + adapters for rb26 rails. $500ono

Injectors sold. added to list.. MINES ECU $150

lol, im after... " Hi, i had stock rb26 rods at xxxKW and they held up, with these mods... and these studs" or Hi, i ran xxxkw and my shit blew up lol Pretty simple. cos everything i read is he say she say.

Ive read MANY threads about RB26 rod strength, many claim 600BHP. With high revs being a no-no, anyone have actual evidence or personal experience with using them to there max capability? Im here to settle it ONCE and for all.

Awesome, thats some good information! Its a block, thats going to be my first build, project so most of it will be new. Thanks guys

Yes i do, a small or larger puller is too big. The oil pump is in the way. This lower splined gear. [/url

Im having trouble finding out how to remove the lower spline gear off the crank Nose? (The gear directly behind the crank pulley when its off) Service manual doesnt tell me anything at all! Is a rb26 engine. Thanks
