Hi guys,

This was up for sale a while ago by Blitz one of the admins on here, please find below link to his ad.

http://www.skylinesa...ost__p__6317686

My number is - Zero four 17 159 662

I have converted this to RWD and all the modifications to run in this format have been completed and the engine is currently sitting in a black 32 Gtst to show how it fits.

I have recently purchased a new Subaru WRX and decided not to finish the project at this stage so will be selling the engine as it was received with the sump modifications done for anyone looking to convert their Skyline.

I am looking for $4200 and am pretty firm on price and may consider seperating the head from the block if the price is decent enough.

I am willing to sell the 32 rolling shell with it for extra if anyone wants it, I have a full genuine GTR front end for the car as well, the price for that would be $6500 pretty firm.

May swap for some go fast bits for the WRX if you happen to have anything and cash or even a standard 32 Gtst as a friend is looking to purchase one.

Please find below a cut and paste of the information from previous owner;

I have for sale my RB26DETT engine setup out of my late model Series 3 R33 GTR.

This engine is in excellent condition and in stock standard trim, right down to stock turbo's, dump pipes and injectors.

To give you some background, I purchased my GTR as a Grade 4.5 with 84,000 Km's from Japan in late 2009 after an extensive search for the right car, and with the exception of a cat back exhaust and Power FC, the the engine was and remains standard. Once the car arrived it was given a full 100k service including new Timing Belt, Water Pump. full fluid flush, plugs, then

a compression test which revealed perfect results across all 6 cylinders, and finally a dyno tune for safety which was performed at one of Sydney's premier GTR building workshops.

The car has been used only very sparingly since coming into the country as plans for a build were put in place almost immediately, and has now covered only 87,000's

The engine has been religiously serviced, or rather pedantically over-serviced at my request by Just Jap Racing in Sydney using only the best Motul lubricants and fluids.

Wow thats cheap

3 cars and 1 car space, had a buyer for the shell it was in so just needed to get rid of it quickly, not happy with the price but sick of the new WRX sitting on the street as it voids my insurance.

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
