Who knows what a relatively low km's neo engine is worth? with or without the turbo.

If you want to sell yours. . . not much

If you want to buy mine. . . . Alot :)

Yours is RWD right? Then you should get anywhere from $1500-2500 depending what you include with it

Mine is AWD, so different block and sump is different, so limited market, either another stagea or a gts4 skyline.

If I buy yours I will also have to weld the front of your car onto mine to accommodate some front drive train action!

Yep mine is RWD, When I sell it I intend to sell it with everything. Turbo, AFM, POD, side mount and piping etc and maybe even the gearbox and tail shaft as well...

Slowly getting manual conversion bits, just trying to source a s2 RB30 block for the engine build

I noticed Envy Imports has a few RB30 blocks in stock when I was looking around the workshop: not sure whether they are S2 or not, since I wouldn't know the difference. Might be worth giving them a call.

an s2 block has the oil and water lines on the turbo side of the block already drilled with fitments, s1 does not

That relates to using a VL block

All R31 blocks have them

I need to get one as well. I have Rb26 head already

Is your car painted yet??

Nah not painted yet still looking like a panda! Been messing around with all the little things, solving that warm start problem. If all goes to plan it will be in the paint shop in a week or 2.

what turbos you thinking of running?

I have Rb26 head already

Hahaha, always one step ahead :)

Do you still have another manual center console getting around your garage?

    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
