its actually Chris Milton of adelaide engine developments, and yes he has just meta-laxed an n1 block and heads, pistons ,rods etc? for me and assembled it to formula1 tolerances, and he has told me i can rev it to 11000rpm it is an rb26 still and produce around 1100hp. all was rather cheap as i am good friends with his son Sam.below is a photo

oh the spl t51 should be ok or i may have to look at a t88 but i dont want too much lag.,.....

i wholly recommend chris milton as an engine builder

chris and sam know their shit, they just finished my N1 motor, good for 1100kw.

thats a s#&tload of grunt! Is it for track, drag or.......... street?? :P

on a side note, i'm aiming for a reliable 600-700hp

I was planning on using the tomei sump baffle kit, wanting the best protection for the motor.

I've read on here that some members use an extended sump with baffles, should I be doing the same ? Or is this just overkill?

no definately go the baffle and also get a tomei oil restrictor fitted to the block just some extra insurance rb's dont EVER like being starved of bearing oil. they hold alot of oil in the heads when revved hard.

F1's rev to 20,000 rpm.

51's will still have plenty of lag on a 2.6.........did you consider going 2.8 or even 3.0 litre, more cubes = less lag.

what bottom end and sump setup you running that can handle 1500hp?

yes i did consider an rb30 but i want it to scream, i will most probably settle for a Garrett 3037 pro(No smaller) thats about 800hp with 80mm gates ,my r34 gtr has hks gt-rs' and that pulled 343kw on willal's dyno but i cant rev it too hard 8500rpm on standard motor with 270 cams and injectors, power fc and boost kit with z32 Afm's . with my 32gtr I want heaps of mid range all the way to 11grand, i wonder what that will feel like on mallala's twisty turn 1. in a 1200kg r32 GTR, i spose the motor might last a little while longer with less power ,but you're right the 51's will be lag monsters, its really a tough choice, any suggestions?

dry sump for sure.

yep, check this............unless you're interested in straight out drag racing alone, this may be a better solution for the street over a 51 or especially an 88, lol

Monster Twin Setup

thanks, will call them monday.

Not sure, but some quotes i've been given were astronomical!

What price is astronomical?? Has the engine actually given up yet...

Also consider putting a sump baffle in and the oil restictor in the head like the others said.

Have they told you what brand bearings,pistons,rods they like to use in the quotes?

I would source all your own parts like dangerman 4 said..and would want to see them going in the engine.

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
