As the title States, I have a Complete RB25 ready to drop into a car.

- Complete running engine (unopened)

- No Fuel Rail

- No Throttle body

- No wiring loom

- Has over the engine air intake

- Has exhaust manifold

Would suit an engine swap if you've blown your RB25, or an upgrade from a RB20.

Engine was compression tested before the car was taken off the road, and the tests were all 160psi with a Variance of 2psi. If you not sure was this means - it means that the engine is in excellent condition. I've always used Fully synthetic oil, and changed the oil every 4,000kms. The engine is showing no signs of wear. A water methanol injection kit was used with this engine so it should be clean internally, and this would have also be the cause of it showing no signs of wear.

There is something different about this engine though - It's held its 300rwkw power for quite a while, with no signs of wear. I'm thinking its got a thicker head gasket, and may have some internal work done. I do not guarantee this though, there is only a slim chance. I sell it as a standard well maintained engine. Anything else that may be inside there is yours as a bonus. The tune I have run was ALWAYS safe and maintained.

As most of you know, I don't flog the shit out of my cars either, I look after them. Car never saw the limiter.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Price: $1800 ONO.

Where are you located? I have a friend who is looking for a replacement rb25. If you're in melb he may be very interested.

In mackay north QLD mate.

Postage might be a bit, sent a gearbox for $120 through pack and send.

Tell you what though, I am sure we can work out some kind of a deal.

How interested is he?

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
