have any of you guys actually had rb rebuilds at boost worx by sean?

busky - where are they located?

I know of a 'few' people who own some nice cars in there and very decent job by Shuan at boostworx. These cars are a little more than 'rebuilds', but quality and service is good :wave:

I'd say Shaun/Boostworx as well - as far as I know Nisspeed does the machining, not sure about assembly

Tilbrooks use Rhemac for machining, not sure about assembly.

Never heard of anyone using Willall

Not sure of anyone with RB24 experience either, has anyone else heard of one being machined up in SA?

I've seen Pete's work on RB engine. If and when my RB stuff up I will send it down to them. Great bunch of people with vast amount of knowledge and experience who stand up for their work/word.

defamation tsk tsk
Defamation law and free speech

The law of defamation is supposed to protect people's reputations from unfair attack. In practice its main effect is to hinder free speech and protect powerful people from scrutiny.

The basic idea of defamation law is simple. It is an attempt to balance the private right to protect one's reputation with the public right to freedom of speech. Defamation law allows people to sue those who say or publish false and malicious comments.

before whinging about defamation look @ what it is i never once said anything about tills so i didnt say anything that wasnt true

i will say he was very willing to have a look and help but... didnt end up helping :D /end of storey

I was impressed when I visited Rhemac Motors. Definitely give them a call I say...

I remember a while back (a good 2-3years) Mark I think his name is (owner of tilbrooks) said they get Rhemac motors do their motors.

EDIT: Chris32 beat me to it. :D

John Moyle Engineering just off main nth rd.

they have all the machinery, and experience to build motors on site and within 2 weeks.

why take it to a dyno place and pay them a commision to get someone else to build your engine.

it dosent make sense to me!

The engine builder at John Moyle has been building speeedway and drag engines for 25 years.

and definately knows his stuff..

They did a great job of my rb25 and kept in touch with me thru out the build process.

They did all the machining on site except getting the crank ballanced. (Chris Milton)

they installed my new JUN crank collar, ACL forged pistons, Eagle H beam rods,

ARP main, big end, and head studs and then assembled the motor, all at a very good

price.

      Nah its a server spammer thing  Although, now that I manually approve all the accounts I can probably loosen up some of the restrictions.

      Thread bump, again! Although, no bad news this time. Posting for the sake of possible root cause. Basically, I rebuilt it (mostly stock), installed Haltech + sensors, had it running fine on new ECU.  Still not really understanding why it cracked pistons last time. Got to tuners, and while checking timing, noticed +-10deg of timing scatter while revving. Changed CAS, and it was rock solid. While not definitive, can't imagine seeing 20+ psi with that amount of scatter would be a good thing. Also glad I found something.   Bit more of a run down; Carried out a stock rebuild, a set of stock pistons, out of a spare bottom end. Everything stock apart from head studs and oil restrictors. (so I can pretend I didn't let the Nissan out, ha.) Armed with the measuring gear and FSM, set about doing overhaul. Oil restrictors as per oil control thread for a RB25, stock oil pump, drifting. Head drain/vent from rear of head, to passenger side of sump above oil level. Two dash 10 vent lines from drivers side of sump (unused atm) Hi octane style cam cover breather kit Splash covers over last 2 cam caps. Both breather lines from cam covers to vented to atmosphere catch can, not plumbed back into sump (wanted to see what it was actually breathing). Got it run in (did about a 1000km) no to low boost scenario, As I had questions over old ECU setup. Installed haltech +sensors for flex Retune on E85 (finding CAS Issue along the way), made 300rwkw at 20psi, out of wastegate. Did a drift day the next day (yes, it was a big weekend!) and was checking catch can throughout the day, ZERO blowby. I mean nothing. Lines from cam covers are not even wet. Done a bunch of street driving, spirited and catch can is still dry. Early days I guess, but pretty happy so far. Also now run 10w60, up from the 10w40 that I used to run. Oil pressure is significantly better, especially when hot (as you would expect)
