Whats been done to it? any porting or anything?

technically it hasn't been ported just had imperfections smoothed out.

It a totally complete head. from an ECCS silver top. I the manifolds, fuel rail etc. to go with to. the only thing its missing is the igition timing moduel that goes on the cam cover. only the bare head itself has been reco'd but all the valves cams, etc etc are in good nic.

happy to post anywhere if you pay the postage. it won't be cheap though.

a nice reco'd head would be great for an RB20 drifter as you'd be punishing the head constantly in that application.

might be interested,but need more infor on the head,where about do u live,is inspection welcome?

any good pics will help if u can send to [email protected]

thanks a lot. :)

Located on the northern beaches. The head is at my mechanics workshop - Joviant - and inspection is more than welcome.

I haven't got any pics. its really just a shiny new head. It all in bits, the mech, Brett, is going to re-assemble it for me for the sale but if you want to install things like new valves, springs, guides etc i could leave it all separate for you. rocker covers are off so they are ready to be painted or chromed to suit your taste (i was gonna go matt black)

As far as info goes what i've given is it. Its been shimmed, so the side that sits on the block is perfectly flat, no warped edges that help to blow gaskets, crack tested and came up 100% fine, and imperfections have been taken out of the combustion chambers, inletc etc. its only just come back from the shop - even i haven't seen it yet.

apart from having a nice new head - the real value is that if you want to do some head work and install some gear in the top end, this one is already out and has been machined. to remove your existing head and do the same you'd have to pay for all the labour time taking it off and putting it back on and put your car of action. plus you'd have to at least have the head shimmed before you put it back on. this has had all the hard and expensive work paid for now you can just install the parts and wack it on. Then you can sell your old top end.

FOR INSPECTIONS CALL ME: ROWAN: 0410 321 343 AND I'LL ARRANGE WITH JOVIANT.

CHEERS :laugh:

$250?

Sorry thats a bit low. i've got a guy offering me $400 pickup at the moment so its on hold. but as with most sale inquiries on here that may not go through. i can possibly sell you an RB20 head that hasn't been shimmed or washed for $280.

Pics?

Its an RB20 top end. no different to any other standard one, except its clean and the bottom is flat.

i haven't even seen it yet. its sitting in the machine shop on the other side of Sydney waiting for someone to give it love, so its a bit hard for me to get pics, sorry. i'm sure there are some on the net somewhere to give an idea if you've never seen an RB20 head off the block.

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
