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

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
