Just got a couple of quotes back for a standard rb26 bottom end swap.. 7-9k ouch.. :ninja:

Looking at a couple of built long motors in japan the moment.. One's a tomei 2.8, 270 tomei cams, tomei oil pump, N1 water pump etc. in a N1 block. Motor has just under 4000k's on it.. May aswell get it checked out by a shop over there and do it right the first time i spose..

Can't justify spending that kind of money on a standard bottom end..

sucks. :laugh:

rb30? :ninja:

I've considered this.. But weezy gets mad and reckons it's molesting it.. Might throw in a rb30et with a A6 bottom end just to make him rage.. haha

Fitspatrick had a rb26 awd adapter for $450 (don't know if they still do) then there's around $600 in machine work to relocate the oil pick up then drill and re tap the rb30 for bigger head studs and a tensioner..

Thats about as much as i've looked into it so far.

Dayum thats quite cheap...

Bargain if you can get it, tho I hate to think what the shipping fees are for something so heavy

-D

Yeah it's cheap at the moment and shipping is around the $1500 mark from what i saw. I'm keen if it goes for under 9k..

That would be around 11k all up including shipping and taxes.

If it goes for any more it might be a better option to get a nitto 2.7 built here..

Weezy has a point (as a purist lol) as Rb30 bottom ends are awesome for the power gain, but the car loses value when you take the original rb26 out of it, which is the only reason I'm going to stick with the 26 bottom end

No pos RB30 bottom ends should be in a GT-R imo

:ninja:

Dont get me wrong, I'm all for twin cam RB30's in VLT's, GTSTs, etc but not a GT-R... C'mon lol

11k shipped for engine worth 5800?

Who's making a couple of grand?

My r34 rb26 motor was under 3k del

Yeah bit too much for shipping. I paid 60,000yen for a pallet (~A$700). If I had more money I would have loaded it up.

What i was meaning to say was i'm prepared to pay 9k maximum for it and that would be around the 11k mark delivered after shipping and taxes.. If it goes for any more than that price i'd be looking into getting a motor built here.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
