Hi

I am buying a rb20det to put in to my r32 but am unsure if the motor is running or not. the motor is on a crate and has a ecu. The guy im buying it off has bought off someone else to put in a vl but had to sell the car. So what im getting to is, is it possable to run the motor on the crate (obviousley mounted) before i put it in the car only to find out that the motor dosnt run??

Thanks

Only if the gearbox and starter are still connected and you can power up the ECU. Set up some sort of dummy fuel system and away you go......

Or you could just tell the guy you want a guarantee that there won't be problems when you go to start it, and if there are, he will return your money. Get it in writing. If he won't, then go buy one from a wrecker who will. Decent RB20's only go for like $1000

when i bought my half cut they fired it up for me all they did was set up a dummy fuel system and connected a battery and away they went make sure you also do a compression test aswell no point buying a engine that start just to find out later down the track the compression is stuffed. make sure it is even across the board. mine was 151 150 151 150 150 150. as long as it does not fluctuate to much you should be fine.

without the gearbox the starter has nothing to bolt to so its unable to crank the motor, no crank=no start.

half cuts are easy to start, engine and box only not so easy.

as Elite said get a written warranty agreement if you buy it from that seller

      Front Hub and Bearing combo PNM35 AWD

      By lannister · Posted

      There’s a possibility that Infinity G35x front hubs may be compatible, but it depends on the exact fitment. Sometimes, parts like hub and bearing assemblies from different models can work if the bolt patterns, bearing sizes, and axle specifications match, but the G35x hubs typically have a different design. It's worth checking detailed specs (like the number of bolt holes, size of the axle shaft, and bearing diameter) to compare, as Rock Auto does list some parts that cross over across different models. If you're going for a pre-pressed hub and bearing unit, that could be a good option. These units are usually easier to install, as the bearing and hub come pre-assembled, but you’ll still need to verify fitment, especially the outer diameter of the hub and bearing dimensions.
