Selling my RB20det out of my R32 + auto gearbox

Runs fine and goes pretty hard at the moment with an rb25 highflow turbo. Potential buyer welcome to go for test drive to see the engine going nicely. Engine is currently sitting in front of an auto.

Tested good consistent compression across all cylinders recently. Other mechanic checks welcome (your expense). Can provide no other guarantees.

Engine / car was stock until last 6 months when modified carefully. It has a bit of minor blowby, as would be expected for an older turbo engine. Has done 111,000km, but fairly genuine km. Will come assembled with full manifolds, injectors, alternator, etc. NO turbo or lines, AFM and minor bits and pieces I need to transfer to the rb25.

Auto box is the rb20/25 RE4R01A -- and is exact swap into R33 as well as r32. No slipping, very good across the range. **** AUTO SOLD ****

Selling due to rb25 conversion... otherwise engine and auto has given me no problems over last 12 months.

Will not be available for 3 weeks or so, but here is a chance to test/drive it all in my car at the moment for some piece of mind. Put a deposit down, and it'll be ready for you.

Asking $600 for engine.

**** AUTO SOLD ****

rb20 ECU and engine loom may be available later (extra price will have to be decided), but will have to see what the rb25 conversion requires.

Hey man, so your not selling with turbo, lines, afm? What about the loom? Im looking at putting one in my R31, so could you go into detail on what your definetly keeping, like ecu? Cheers, Todd.

Don't think I will need ECU.. Nor probably loom, as have the RB25 one, but will have to see.. So it should be enough for complete conversion into another car. Price on those would be extra to the engine itself.

Sorry I can't be more definitive at the moment, but when I know I will post up.

Turbo, lines, etc are transferring across to the RB25, as its an RB25 turbo anyhow.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
