I do not currently have these parts. I am considering buying a complete engine for the head only. So the following shall be off the engine engine i will purchase and just want to try and turn the parts around as quick as possible as they will be just taking up space i dont have and money best spent elsewhere.

Engine is a complete engine with warranty so expect all the following to be in working condition as you would expect if purcashed from a reputable import/wrecker

So how easy is to sell the following and what are the typical prices you could realistically move them for?

- Complete set of coil packs ,

- CAS ,

- Rocker Covers and timing belt cover ,

- RB25DE block, crank, rods and pistons ,

- R32 RB25DE wiring loom

The engine will also have water and oil pumps etc but they will go in the bin as why would you use them when new stuff can be bought cheaply.

So is this gear actually worth anything, or is it better to hold out for a seperate head???

doop, doop doop.. I may know a little thing about this :yes:

Complete set of coil packs ,

$180 - or separate at $40 each. People always want a separate coil pack. Ebay is good

CAS

About $50-100.. they go on bung on rb20's, and people can never find them. You have to find the buyer when you at the time of selling however.

Rocker Covers and timing belt cover

$100 or so.. people like to pretty them. Nobody wants to separate a valley cover.

RB25DE block, crank, rods and pistons ,

Not sure.. nice paperweights.

- R32 RB25DE wiring loom

About $100-$150..

Took me about 3 months to completely offload my rb20det which was once complete piece by piece. So it takes time, and time is money, blah.

So litte faith...there will never be an RB30 between my inner gaurds. :P

I want an RB25DE head because im going to ummm, umm well its not an RB30. How about id rather weld up the RB25 head for the 82-83 mm bore the stroker is going to have, rather then port out the 78mm chamber RB20 head :D

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      If they can dyno them, get them dyno'd, make sure they're not leaking, and if they look okay on the dyno and are performing relatively well, put them in the car.   If they're leaking oil etc, and you feel so inclined, open them up yourself and see what you can do to fix it. The main thing you're trying to do is replace the parts that perish, like seals. You're not attempting to change the valving. You might even be able to find somewhere that has the Tein parts/rebuild kit if you dig hard.

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      Can you also make sure the invoices on the box (And none exist in the boxes) are below our import duty limits... I jest, there's nothing I need to actually purchase and order in. (Unless you can find me a rear diff carrier, brand new, for stupidly cheap, that is for a Toyota Landcruiser, HZJ105R GXL, 2000 year model...)

      Murphy strikes again! Nothing at all would have gone wrong if you had the tool kit in the car! You'd have just found the clamp loose the next time you went to touch it...

      Blue slip

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I have been being VERY quiet about what you're alluding to, as it is something that ticks me off... The number of cars from factory that run coil overs is HUGE! Most of them these days do... The other part that annoys me, is people saying "Well all the incabin adjustable suspension is illegal by blah blah blah"... If that's the case, then why can I buy a car brand new that can do it if, FULL STOP in cabin adjustable suspension is illegal...   Also, I could just chuck some aftermarket shocks in my car, throw the stock springs on, after my blue slip, dump my super low springs back in. Same shock and spring style setup... Hell, they could also be the same colour springs etc.     I'm voting, BlueSlipper didn't want to touch the above car for some reason. Whether it be some sort of bias against the car, the owner, them maybe having previously done dodgy shit and now they're being super careful in case they get slapped in the face by the Gumbyment again... Find a new blueslip place.   And can confirm as you had said, yes there are holy bibles of vehicle heights, and all sorts of other suspension stuff. Heck your run of the mill mechanic, and tyre shop has access to all of that stuff. It's how they do wheel alignments...

      Funny story Heading to Sydney this morning on the HWY there was some slow traffic, so I gave it the beans and midway through my overtaking "power run" I lost all power It seems that I missed a hose clamp,  and the MAF and filter went WiFi To make this more problematic, the little tool kit that lives in the boot, is sitting in the sun room at Goulburn......LOL Luckily for me I found a bit of steel on the side of the road that could be used like a rusty and bent flat head screw driver to tighten it up enough that it got me into Sydney, it is now all tight like a tiger with the aid of a 8mm socket Note to self: Use my brain and double check stuff, and always keep that little tool kit in the car for when I have a brain fart
