Part:

RB26/30 long motor

Condition:

Built but never run :(

Description:

Typical story, got rid of project car due to purchase of house and the wife was pregnant with my first child...now the wife is pregnant with the second kid and I have a bathroom that desperately needs to be redone.

All up I remember spending around the $14,000 mark, so my loss is your gain.

More info:

- A8 block (bored, honed, decked)

- R32 GTR head

- HKS gaskets

- Head cleaned and serviced

- shot peened and linished conrods

- Crank/oil pump collar

- Crank balanced

- rotating assembly balanced, crank grub screwed and fitted with colar

- ACL forged pistons

- ACL bearings

- GTR Oil and water pumps

- HKS adjustable cam gears

- HKS cams, unknown model...didn't think to check before delivering to builder and he said he couldn't find a model number on them.

There are bits missing from the motor, including all the AAC gear, loom, valley and cam covers...This would be the perfect upgrade for someone that already has an RB26 that is looking for a bigger bottom end.

8.8:1 static compression (quite high for a 26/30) this was from my request during the build for better off boost driveability, I can't remember the exact combination that we used to get there, but it also included decking the block a little. Feel free to post questions, but remember it was a while ago now so my memory is a little vague

Location:

Blacktown, NSW

PM on this site

I'll include my mobile number to serious people

Asking Price:

Looking for offers above $6,000...feel like I'm low balling myself

Or, feel free to offer something of interest...you never know

Pick-up/Postage Arrangements:

I'm willing to transport it inside the Sydney area...but you'll owe me a beer when I get there

I'm not interested in separating, sorry.

No photos of the build, it was done by MRC Dyno Services (Castle Hill, NSW)

I've got 2 of the 3 receipts (lost the first one)

It also comes with the throttle bodies, inlet plenum, half the loom (been hacked up, probably better thrown away)

EDIT: The harmonic balancer is from an R31 Skyline

Anyone recovered from buyer's remorse after the Christmas Period? Maybe you'd like another round of spending...look no further, beef up that Skyline with a properly built 26/30, not just another slap together hybrid.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
