This would speed up the process ;)

Rightio.

I've been offered $19 K with a working head that has V cam. If it's not sold on here it will go to this certain guy, he just can't do it at the moment. So I'm not fussed if it doesn't move.

Might sound like a lot but

GT block - two on here for sale for $10k

Stroker - another $7k

Head cost me $11k

Marcus also sold his engine that was very similar just in a N1 block for $18K iirc two weeks ago.

ah so Marcus finally sold his engine

Almost took him a year

Also yeah that's a lot Paul :D

Try build it for that price though, good luck!

I bet your motor probably cost as much and you got stock crank, stock springs & lower than factory compression ratio and blowy poncams ;) Edited by Mick_o

Nup. My motor cost a LOT less than that lol.

Paul it went for a fair bit more than that plus a stock engine and all gear to turn my car back to stock.

Wasn't advertised, just word of mouth and went to very appreciative owner.

What people don't get is that to get the sort of responsive power that Pauls engine has costs $$$ and time.

Anyone can build a peak power engine but to build one that gives you that nice big fat torque hit sorts the real engine builders out from the wannabees. Straight line grunt, pfft...you want a drivers car that gives race engine performance every time the loud pedal gets touched and will do it all day long.

You can bang your head all day arguing the point but proof is best kept to actual bum in seat feel but all passengers must wear a nappy as you'll soon get sick of cleaning shit stains off the passenger seat.

What Paul's planning now will be a very special and unique package and engines like these are far and few between because there are no short cuts, plain and simple they cost $$$, a lot of time and frustration.

this ^ has now got me intrigued

Im gonna guess and say that he's going for RB 3.5, with GTX2863r with -5 comp housings, OS88 tranny in an R34 GTR

Yeah the next package will be pure insanity and super special i cant wait!

I can tell you from the drivers seat that the 2.8L is absolutely insane it free revs like an roadbike engine! A tiny blip on the throttle and the needle shoots off to redline as quick as you can blink! In any gear from 2nd gear and 4000rpm HANG THE f**k ON to that steering wheel as shit around you gets blurry and things start coming up REALLY fast!

Ive been in all kinds of wound up stock 2.6s and nothing is remotely as ferocious as this thing is! If you think that your 500kw 2.6L will touch this car you're dreaming as it just makes grunt like nothing I've ever experienced its sad to see it go as it really is a rare engine and theres definitely not another engine around like this thing.

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
