Comments / Modifications

Engine was rebuilt 2500 KM's ago, Car is in VGC throughout, paint is in great condition, diffs and gearbox are also in great condition, all panels are straight, and engine is built for high power. One of the seats has a tear in it and this is the only problem i can think of.

Modifications: - Engine just rebuild 2500 km's ago at a price of $10400, I have full receipts

Performance:

Car has GAB Coilovers, standard rims with some decent tyres (+ a few spares of the same brand/size) and new pads/rotors.

Standard turbo's (replaced one with the rebuild because it was on the way out)

CP Pistons

Eagle H beam con rods

New main/rod bearings

bored and honed, surfaced, crack tested block

Linished and balanced crank

ARP Head Studs

Reco'd head, valves and reset valve clearances

New timing Belt

Adjustable cam gears

Tomei metal headgasket

N1 Oil Pump and drive

New water pump

New engine mounts

New tensioner and idle pully

Heavy duty clutch, cushioned so it's not a pig to drive but it will handle good power (800km's ago)

R33 AFM's

Twin *drift* pod filters

JJR Coil Packs

Has a 3" catback system with a hkz super dragger muffler, sounds awesome

Thick aluminium racing radiator

Full service including oil filter, plugs, coolant, p/s fluid

Audio:

a new Pioneer head unit ($300 unit)

exelsior 12"kenwood sub (was top of the range when i bought it a year or 2 back, sounds awesome)

a kenwood KAC-1204 amplifier (400 retail)

Also has original flare still.

It made 220kw on 10psi on standard turbos, turbos were never run over 10psi

GTAAAH Plates are included if you'd like them

Engine was built to handle good power, i had plans for twin 2530's and about 350-400awkw eventually but ended up in loads of debt so now i'm gonna sell it and get a home owners grant. I wish this exact car had been on the market when i was originally looking to buy one. It's in great condition, still looks stock (never been pulled over) and has a well built, strong motor to handle upgrades later (so you dont have to worry about another rb26 blowup)

I have done most of my km's driving to and from work, and have never taken it to track etc. THe previous owner used it for the same purposes and his wife used it for groceries (dead set, gtr grocery cart, blah)..

oh and here i thought my plates were original :P engine was rebuilt by dom at protek automotive in preston, it's still under parts warranty and has a lifetime warranty if it is damaged due to their mistake

ur looks clean mate, ive seen u driven through altona meadows a couple of times and was just wonderin if the engine build made any difference in haw the car went as im rebuildin me rb26 now.

Hey mate don't think it was me, live in greensborough, theres a GTAHHH running around, same colour and everything it was probably that dude

The engine build didn't really make any noticeable difference in the way the car is, the cam gears dialed in will make a bit of a difference but as the rb26 is already a really well built and finished engine unless your stroking you will end up with the same sort of power you had before hand.. But instead of worrying about the car blowing up at any random time, you can throw some big turbo's on, crank up the boost and have a hell of alot of fun without worrying anymore, which is sick

I'll get some more pics of the car CeJay and throw em up tonight or tomorrow

  • 3 weeks later...
  • 2 weeks later...

Will add a bunch of new pics tomorrow, this is still for sale, been very busy and car is just waiting on a wheel respray before its sold.. they got some overspray from something at some stage and the surface is a bit funny

New pics added

Will take some more tonight, i'm really bad at taking photo's, also car needs a wash, stupid rain where i work is always dirty

EDIT: Please note car is still for sale, i'm yet to have anyone actually come to look at it.

My Phone number is 0421654914, i work during day but i'll return all missed calls

No test pilot's, genuine interest only. Car is viewable at my house, am not meeting anyone elsewhere because of theft lately on these forums

bump, power steering leak fixed, much lighter steering now, i barely even knew it was gone, now it's noticeable as blah

got a compression test done too, results were 120 across the board, nice and close =)

Also got them to do a quick roadworthy check and it's all good, will get the actual roadworthy when i have a definite buyer

some pics of the receipts, for work in the last 6 months

Car has only been used to get to and from work for last 6 months

I"m going to take some more pictures but hard to get time before it gets dark

Car has 0 rust, absolutely none, paint is in good condition, few tiny scratches here and there but awsome condition for a car of it's age

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
