I'm rebuilding my rb26dett and considering what internals to use at the moment deciding to go for arias pistons eagle rods both costing around 800-1200each which seems reasonable?

Browsing through the for sale section I've noticed alot of second hand gear in supposed good condition for sale alot half the price of the new gear.

What should I do ?

NEW...ALL THE WAY.

If you were just looking to fix your motor, then you would buy second hand

I would hate to do a re-build to find out there is something wrong .

All that time and effort to put it together,tune and see a problem with maybe one of the pistons or rods

would kill me.You also would get a waranty when you buy new, so if there is something wrong the

supplier would be able to help with the costs.

Good luck with the choice.....saving money is not something you should think of with a RB26 Motor.

    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk  
    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.
