The motor was good when I got it. But the hicas. Diffs and clutch were :Owned:

I spent alot of money on the car to get it to where it was. It ran a 12.5 on the quarter. And then KABOOM!! Meh got no money.

what exactly is wrong with the engine and were is this place you found gtr engines at about $6000 as i wolud like to know these things before going any further as i can way up the costs......?

19,000 is bargine price, new engine would be rnd 6,000 fully good GTR for 25,000 and a 1993 December model at that. Durno why its so hard to sell......

I got a quote to replace the engine. $2k to pull the old engine out and another $2k to put a replacement engine in. Can you get it done cheaper where you are?

There is a R33 Vspec motor going for ~$6k on the forums so your right on the money there.

Sounds a tad pricey. We R and R a GTR engine for $1K over here if you supply a complete engine.

$2k to remove an engine? WTF

You are being screwed

Sorry, I had to comment

You also have to realise that when you put a new engine in the car, even if it cost you $7,000 in total, you can probably get $2,000-$3,000 for selling bits of the old engine. IE turbos, head, injectors, stock dumps, ECU, the list goes on......

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
