Have a spare Rb26dett engine ($3k)

Complete, only things missing are air flow meters and computer

Good condition and good compression

No longer needed as I have a rebuilt engine ready to go into my race car if it blows up (this engine was a spare that I never used as the car is still going strong)

Engine was removed from a running car that was imported and stripped for spares

Come and inspect it, inappropriately touch it, and buy it

Located in Lower Blue Mountains Sydney

I also have a complete Gtr head with intake and exhaust with a wiring loom for sale $1500, perfect for an Rb30 conversion

i am quite keen on this, you say complete so i take it stock turbos are attached? Im still contemplating the reliability on these old 32 26's with out a rebuild. Your probly the right person to ask, How much would i bee looking at to get this "forged" to hold a reliable 300kw all day every day

The engine itself will hold 300kW with an awesome tune quite well. The rods are good for that and the pistons will last if the tune is right. Its more a question of how warn is the engine, are the rings fried, does the head need to be reconditioned etc.

The biggest issue is the oiling system in these. Thats the big one to be sorted, and how to sort it depends on what the car is to be used for.

Really, you could get away with forged pistons, new bearings, an acid bath and hone, basic head rebuild, metal head gasket, arp head studs, but spend your money on a crank collar, good harmonic balancer and either an N1 pump with billet gears or a high flow jap oil pump such a Tomei unit with a correctly sized restrictor in the block. If its for track use, fit a large sump, mines baffle plates etc.

That would have you a good setup. But you wont see much, if any change from $6k. I'm currently up to $5k and that doesn't include bearings, ANYTHING head related, just pistons, rods, harmonic balancer, an an oil pump, no labour for anything yet either. Thats with the best of the best gear though.

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
