Poncams Type B - limited use (no marks, present as new)

RB26 head, less than 10k km since complete rebuild.

Head is complete minus manifolds and covers.

Comes off my running rb26 - had no untoward valvetrain noise, cam clearances are spot on etc. This head with the type B poncams was making ~400rwkw with a gt35.

I also have the standard cams so you can option the head with poncams or standard cams, or purchase the cams on there own (Poncams retain the standard base circle and are straight fit!).

RB26 Head with poncams $1450 / RB26 Head with standard cams $950 / Tomei Type B Poncams $550

Pick-up in Perth, buyer pays shipping otherwise.

The head was built by the previous owner with all std parts from Nissan.

Ahh ok fair call. I think i really need to put stainless/iconel valves and bronze valve guides in my head to suit what i'm doing. So a factory head rebuild would not suit me.

Question though, do you have a picture of the power/torque/boost dyno read out of your engine? I know an internally stock RB26 with a GT35 will do 400kW. But i'm chasing the same sort of figures with a 3076 for my RB26. So it would be interesting to see so i can work out how much head work i need to do to get the power where i want it.

Cheers.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
