RB26 Short Motor $2800!! Perfect rebuild kit for an engine suffering the dreaded spun bearing saga or just somebody wanting forged internals for a steal!

Price includes Engine Block, Long Nose Crank (>1000kms old), Precision Motorsport H Beam conrods (http://www.precision...otorsports.html)and Arias 86.5mm forged pistons only (no ancillaries / sump etc).

The engine block has suffered a very small split inbetween No 3 and 4 cylinder which has been repaired using Irontite. Initial indications were a few drips of coolant under the car after shutdown, then the repair was carried out and it hasn’t leaked since. I am selling simply because in the race application I use the car for, it will not last the season and hence I need to replace it. Engine is still in car and running, interested parties are welcome to hear it running if need be.

Cheers,

Andrew

willing to separate and send crank only to sydney

Hi mate,

not at this stage, the engine is still useable in its current build state. I would if I have buyers for rods and pistons.

Is it possible to get photos of the repair? Leaking only water? Thanks

Ben,

Here is an image of when it first leaked. This was when hot and cooling system pressurised.

Hi -

Engine is still in car and running - will not be removed until bottom end is sold. Would still prefer a buyer for the bottom end complete, however if I were to split it crank $950 rods $700 pistons $700. Will not be splitting or dismantling till all is sold.

Cheers

    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
