Hey guys,

I just wanted some opinions on how much a stock R34 GT-R motor is worth as I have ordered a crate engine to replace her.

Here's some details.

- motor still in car and runs perfectly with no problems at all.

- about 74,000kms genuine

- complete long block engine but does not include turbos, manifolds, loom, fuel system, pulleys or plenum.

- recently dynoed at 200awkw with just a cat-back system

cheers

Euge

guys - no turbos etc etc.

$2000 at the absolute best.

heads are $1100-$1500, bottom ends are worth nothing

A complete running RB26 is not worth 6-7k that's for sure

Ouch! 2k? your serious; i know no turbos or plenum/fuel system but 2k?

well if mx is gonna sell it, id probably buy it for that price and build it up slowly to slot in my gtr when its done...serious on that if your interested.

A purchased a near complete head (no manifolds/turbos) for $1000, ~100,000km/s or so on it. Its in good nick. This is a common everyday price.

Bottom ends, literally are no more than $500 in value really.

So yes, no ancillaries, loom and so on, no more than $2000.

Just check the For Sale section, you'll soon see GTR heads sell for $1500 with plenum/manifolds attached, less without depending on what is missing.

Back 5 years ago i paid less than $4000 for a FULL motor, it had dead turbos... but everything from plenum to dumps to the loom.

It was a bit tired, so perhaps 4.5k full running motor with a loom for something in a little better condition.

You can get them imported now for 4k even, in decent condition.

If anyone can get more, good luck to them, the buyer didn't do their research.

For what it's worth, 2JZ's sell for under $3500 :D

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • 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
