have had offers for exhanges with other heads, if so we are only after a completely standard one with nothing done to it at all, and of course we would want cash on top...

Also we may be setting the head up with, apexi vmax cams (brand new) (260 dur, and 11.2 lift), vmax lifters, supertech double valve springs and Ti retainers (brand new), and aftermarket (tomei) cam gears for an extra $2800

cheers

will consider a trade in price for a reasonable head with absolutely nothing done to it (need dead stock, cracked guides are fine)

ok, new deal, the head, supertech double valve springs and titanium retainers (all new), apexi v-max cams 260 11.2mm lift (new) and apexi lifters to suit, tomei adjustable cam gears (new), standard valves lapped in, port matched intake assembly, polished camshaft covers, and polished intake plenum (also ported) all for $7200 firm.

pics of the set-up soon.

will also sell the head bare, if someone gets in first

ok taking reasonable offers, and cant afford to keep buying things for it to sell it easier... PM us only, and any unrealistic offers will not even be replied to, and please specify what your offering price is for, please dont just say "I'll give you $$$$"

Will sell without the apexi cams and tomei cam gears for $1400 less (standard lifters supplied, not apexi ones)

my 2c is get them flow bench figures you mentioned before.

If this was a worked and documented head from a reputable shop it would be gone by now. But no flow figures and no one knows if you have improved or decreased the effectiveness of this head. Allot of testing and experience goes in to the making of a well working head, not just if it 'looks like it will flow well'.

Nissan did a very good job with the ports in the RB26 and it is not easy to enhance them significantly, but very easy to make things worse.

That's why CNC ported heads are well sought after because people know EXACTLY what they are getting. 100% equal every time.

thats great for you bud, but did I ask for your opinion, and do you think I give a rats arse what you pay for your shit??? I take it for the price it was used too??? all work on ours is new, and all parts are new...

PM sent

bump... would like to get rid of the polished covers ... they take up too much room...

Are there still ceramic turbos

ok for those that don't seem to understand the price of good quality, know this... to pick up a standard set (which are always low quality in terms of paint ie. chipped and peeling) is now no where under $400, (unless the person is really desperate to sell them), now add the price to polish them to the extent that we do (upwards of $600), now add the two together=$1000, so I think that asking $850 is not really so bad, also with the polishing job look at the pictures, the attention to detail is carried out to ALL area's of the covers, unlike some We have seen floating around...

Well Levi, I am definately taking advantage of the fantastic polishing work that you do. I dont understand why people arn't happy paying for decent, quality of work ??

cheers mate, yes we pride ourselfs on the quality of our work mike, unfortuently need the money for other things at the moment, so someone should take advantage of this bargin... but happy to keep them if they do not sell for our asking price...

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
