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.

head no longer for sale, untill it is flow tested, and when it is the price will be going up :P

as for the polished covers they can go, may consider a trade in price... PM us if your keen on anything.

thanks

My mate just picked up a full tomei ported head with 272 cams bronze valve guides tomei valve springs stock valves our of a race car making around 700hp direct bolt on and go for 2 grand.

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...

PM sent

bump, will trade for parts that we currently need...such as below

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...

just let us know what you have, and what you would be keen on an we can go from there... please don't be unrealistic either

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...

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
