Haven't had any interest in car so just selling engine, if no interest in engine then I'll start parting it out. Heads up that I don't have much spare time to pull it down so please understand the big bits will be sold first and small parts last if it comes to it.

Car has made 465hp @ wheels, had a lot of fun building it but haven't got the time or money to put it to use. In the time its taken to build I've gone from a single full boost hoon to a happily married sedate loving father. Having two kids under two years old makes it a lil hard to get out to the track and I'm not one for a Sunday drive anymore. If not sold as package I will keep some bits so I can put a stock motor in for the odd hill climb or to sell the car.

Whole lot $13,000 (should be everything you need for conversion to RB30/26)

I made the catchcan, 4 liters works well. Wasn't intending to sell it but I also didn't think I'd ever want to sell the engine. Let me know how much you'd pay for one and I'll think about it. Might even see if I could build another.

I did a compression test a couple weeks ago and thought the compression was a little low and I just found out why, there is a rubber o-ring missing where the spark plug thread adapter screws on, without it it screws up to far. Also just been told that I should be doing the test hot with all spark plugs out and throttle open which I wasn't doing before so I'll give it another try this weekend.

Power FC not sold, got a bit ahead of myself.

Price change to $12,000 ono for complete engine package

Price change to $17,000 ono for full car

Compression test redone, much better, pics attached aprox 150 over all. Engine was about 50-60degrees so not hot but still warm and throttle was held open unlike last time.

Also found video of last event I did, just small mucking around stuff.

17psi, engine would be able to make more but that was max fuel. Need to upgrade fuel pump and fuel lines but I believe it already needs a stronger gearbox with this much power.

    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope!
