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.

Good luck with that mate

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...

how much u want for the polished covers????

PM sent

apexi rb26 fc and contoller, 6pt cage, low seat rails for aftermarket seats, 550-600cc injectors, ati harmonic balancer, defi boost gage and a few other things we may need...

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...

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
