GDay,

Just rang Hornsby Nissan for a price on an RB26 engine overhaul gasket kit. $570! I was just wondering if anyone knew of any alternatives such as non genuine aftermarket kits etc. Im trying to save some money.

Thanks,

Shaun.

I'm assuming it's for a BNR32? If so, buy a BCNR33 gasket kit and an oil stariner o ring for a BNR32. Will be about $300 all up.

Yeah, i was quoted for an R32 Rb26. You're a ledgend Mik!!

I've actually bought an R33 GTR kit before and i couldnt remember paying anywhere near $570. I wonder why the R32 kit is so much more expensive??

Anyway, thanks. Ill price the ACL kit too; but where is ACL?

Shaun.

The Nissan i think is $320... cant remember if that was trade or not though.

Always helps to know someone

ACL - http://www.acl.com.au/

HAve a check around there, not sure if there are prices though

Thanks mate.

i got my VRS kit from Lincorp in parramatta (which offer SAU members discounts) for $160 trade without the valve stem seals. its $244 with them.

Holy sh1t, its getting cheaper and cheaper. Im glad i asked the question now!

Ill ring em on Monday,

Thanks,

Shaun.

only catch is you've got to be a financial member of SAU if you dont have a trade card.

How do i become a financial member???

Also, forgive my stupidity, but what does VRS stand for? Been racking my brains all day!!

Thanks,

Shaun.

PS. Was this for an RB26 (32 or 33). Dont you have an RB25?

And it will get you cheaper entry to the club events and track days as well as the sponsor discounts.

And VRS stands for "Very Rare and Spensive"

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
