Guys.

I have been offered a deal on a brand new Tomei Advance Spec RB26 engine - IF I can purchase more than one. Tomei is doing these for USD $17900 with sea shipping (but not including, customs clearance, duty, GST or and handling charges at the port - this would probabley come up around $2500 in extra charges, maybe more).

If I can get another person on board with these motors we would be looking at AUD 18k all up each - including all the GST, duty, clearance & delivery charges to Melbourne metro. Only a few hundred more if you are interstate.

These are a killer motor for the money BUILT BY TOMEI IN JAPAN. They use ALL BRAND NEW PARTS. These are BRAND NEW MOTORS - complete from cam covers to sump.

Some good stuff about these engines:

Brand New

Built by Tomei, Japan

N1 block

Tomei forged pistons and rods

Nismo oil pump

Tomei cams

Nismo bearings

Tomei cam pulleys

Tomei timing belt

Tomei head gasket

Tomei sump baffle

N1 water pump

Includes sump and diff and all engine covers - And not least of all - DECADES OF TOMEI RB26 EXPERIECE.

Here are some specs and pics (and links below):

Hi Guys

Just an update as I have been getting inquiries on these lately. As far as I know the Advance Spec is now discontinued.

Cheers

I can vouch for that too, as I believe I was one of the last customers to purchase the Tomei advance spec RB26 (mine being the limited edition just like above pics.).

Beautiful engine and worth every cent IMO.

All the best with the sale.

Cheers,

Ant.

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
