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.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
