The rb26 is out of a r32 gtr but has the r33 crank for the longer snout for oil pump drive.Rebuild included forged pistons and rods arp, head studs, new n1 oil and water pump. block was decked and machined. head was fully serviced machined and valves reseated. Bottom end ballanced copper head

car has coilovers, big y pipe, walllbro 500hp fuel pump i think it is. SARD fuel reg. gtr dash.

Have Nismo N1 turbos which one has just let oil seal go. guess both need rebuild. considering putting on standard gtr turbos just to help sell. body is ruff like a real drift car. flat back paint

Asking for $11000 as it sits has rego till oct 09

was sold and half paid for but the guy crashed his car he was selling and couldnt come up with rest of money so paid him deposit back and car is still for sale/ swap

car has done 17000km. gtr dash has 64000km was installed when motor was rebuilt motor has only been run in then boost was turned up at mechanics in newcastle on dyno and blow a turbo manifold gausket mechanic or apprentic that changed that left rag in inlet of the rear turbo and it was started and bent the blades of the turbo. rag was pulled out and car put back together stated while idealing blow that turbos gasket.

im still going through the prosess of tring to get enought money out of the mechanics to rebuild the nismo turbos and install and tuned but is not looking good as everything was cash jobs after rebuild.

Standard Turbos have been installed car is in good running condition will be getting fresh coat of satin black asap.

Spent a bit recently turbo installation getting painted after $12500 with 12 months rego

Swap for something that grabs my attention to equal value/more or less cash difference anyway

if cant find decent buyer ill keep and store untill im ready for track car.

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
