Bought this bottom end but I'm thinking about taking another path with a build, so putting this up for sale for the price it was bought for. It was bought with what is in the list, & it has never been started. All the machining etc was done at South Side engine centre (Perth). Although this does need to be stripped back down & cleaned, that is relatively cheap & will give piece of mind. Bottom end only but no sump:

Block was crack tested, decked, bored & honed

Acid tank parts

Polished crank

Chamfer oil holes

Balanced engine

Fit aluminium plugs

Fit rods to pistons

N1 oil pump & crank collar

Oil pump sleeve machined & fitted

ACL race series forged pistons

ARD forged rods

ACL bearings

ARP main studs

It may have ARP rod bolts but the guy wasn't completely sure, but to be safe I'd recommend getting it opened up & double checked & fitting them if not, they are the best type & the bolts can be considered just as, if not more important than the rods themselves. All in all it's a pretty decent package which is why I bought it, but at the moment just not 100% sure I want to commit to the project so if it sells it sells

Located in Perth but can ship at buyers expense

$2000

$2000, just moved house & want this gone as I just don't have the time

As such I don't have good internet yet, so any questions or whatever sms me on 0400 218 170. For any eastern staters keep in mind the time difference in the morning :P

Cheers! Nathan

Price dropped to $2000, I'll lose a bit of money this way but I'd really like this gone. If it doesn't sell at this price chances are I'll pull it apart & part it seperately, as everything is new!

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
