lol i didnt mean it would take 20 years to learn to build a motor, but to build a motor to the same standard as the likes of rips or red r etc probably would because of all the experience they have gained in that time. this guy seems to think he can master building a high hp engine with a few weeks of tutoring. unlikely.

if theres anywhere you can go to do a course on performance engine building then it would probably be in japan. even so, he would have to go and learn a new language first

Wow its a crazy world we live in.

I didnt ask for a high spec engine i wanted a normal rb26dett.

I agree building a motor like this isnt for me and i wont attempt it.

But i will make sure i am not going to be in this position again.

so im going toi start learning on some shitty corollas and other cars.

Thankyou for your advice and true to the fact i wasnt being realistic and i guess you have explained it really well.... was an idiot to even think of attempting it.

But i guess the easiest approach here would be to eithersend my engine to japan or new zealand or even uk.

or buy another engine which i think im actually going to do .

Any one with some Brand new Nur spec engines for sale .

Im also looking for a some garrett gt2860 -5's actually i am looking for some Nur spec N1 Cores cause my bearing cores are shot.

If not is there any one out there that can give me a really good price on some Garrett Gt2871R's -10

Thank you all

kind regards

Give it up...

It's obvious you just want to feel sorry for yourself.

As harsh as that sounds - you said you don't have the money etc to send it all over the world - yet:

- You own an R34 GTR Nur

- You have already spent $15k USD on the car.

To me looks like your doing ok... If you just did it properly the first time, you wouldn't need this help and the money would have been well spent.

This engine building stuff is just silly - RIPS has offered - you haven't done anything. I wanted to learn how to build engies - so I did a course I read book after book and learned how to do it.

Sorry if this is rough, but am I the only one seeing this go round in circles? (BTW Where are these magical pictures...)

my first engine failure where the arp bolt failed after a very well known tuner in south africa rebuilt my engine not sure if i can mention their names on here would love to as he has caused my nothing but hell and wont compensate me for possibly a overtightened bolt or undertitghened.

i spen 15k over a period of three years so 5k a year roughly saving hard .

i bought the car and put down 10 000 usd and am paying off the rest over like 5 years .

so basically i am not rich i loved the car so much i worked my butt off to get it and now i have a long way to pay off and still no engine 15k later ts rough especially knowing rob has quoted me 15k to build a bottom end thats fully balanced and forged with a good used 33 block not even my n1 block ??

so i still have to add a good head and some good turbos and a clutch assembly .

a brand new nur unit from rhdjapan is 11 000usd .

a nismo fine spec is 13 000usd

turbos 3 000usd

clutch and clutch cover and flywheel 2300usd including shipping.

the costs all add up and it would be better for me to pay shipping from one way outside in then both ways as its adds even more costs.

I really want to feel sorry for you mate, but - Do it once do it properly.

RIPS quoted you 15k for a bottom end because its not going to break! He has a very good track record and his prices reflect his knowledge and workmanship.

GTR's are expensive.

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
