i can too, involves the sale of the 34 however. just couldn't part with her if i tried.

id be able to keep the 14, and be mostly if not all debt free. its very tempting.

ill probably put a couple grand straight onto the loan, and just enjoy the rest.

and by enjoy i mean, new seat, coils, good rubber, dump pipe, front pipe, cooler, ebc, retune, and track day.

im confused mitch? wernt you saying that ur motor was dead and needed a basic rebuild?
no ,i never said it was dead , turns out the battery in the car didnt have enough power to turn the motor over .

started it up yesterday , was a loud noise , disconnected power steering pump and there was a small knocking noise in cylinder 6

car idles fine and revs up fine , just could do with some minor work .

i beg to differ how does a spun bearing now become just a slight knock in #6

As you might know , my rb26 has spun a bearing.

i have replacement parts to fix it but my only problem is getting the engine out of the car and doing it myself.

seeing as im really low on cash i was wondering if anyone could lend a helping hand to help me rebuild the motor.

ill happily pay you for your services etc but my main priority is getting my car back on the road as i dont have a daily.

any help will be greatly appreciated !

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
