Hi guys, never really officialy introduced myself but thought I should post up my progress for anyone interested.

My Car is a Nissan 95 240sx (200sx)

Motor is a ER34 Neo6 RB25, with GTR Crank.

CP pistons

GTR Rods

ARP Main/Rod Bolts

ACL Main/Rod Bearings

I chose this motor thinking they had fixed the oil drive, but i was wrong.

Here's some pics!

I'll start with the beginning when I took her apart the first time.

before head came off..cams have no wear/sludge buildup..low miles

and here we are as of today.

I just got the motor back after the machine shop assembled

- rb26 crank

- cp pistons

- standard 26 rods

- ACL main/rod bearings

- ARP main/rod bolts

- honed cylinder walls

- had the head/block hot tanked and resurfaced

- rotating assembly balanced ( really don't think was necesary )

little over $500 later and BAM!

i chose to tap the rear of the head to fit an external oil drain to the sump

I'd like to have it in the car on mounts by this weekend, but more than likely will just paint the block, assemble it and get it ready for next weekend.

I've still got to get my harness back, tap the oil pan for the return line, and port match ex and intake ports/manifolds.

thx for looking!

nice work man

love your progress.

How hard was it to source the NEO motor overthere?

thx man, it's gettin there, still waiting on my harness to be sent back from being converted. taking waaaaayy too long ;)

as far as sourcing the motor, wasn't too hard, we have alot of importers who are able to get just about any motor.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
