Hi guys,

I have the original short block from my 34 GTR that has been sitting in the parents shed collecting dust for the best part of four years.

The crank has scouring on the no1 bigend bearing, but not really large enough to catch a fingernail in. The others look fine, but I'm no machinist/engine builder so I can't guarantee its condition and as such I recommend a linish :)

The pistons and rods all appear to be fine.

The dust you can see in the pictures is saw dust from the old mans attempts at carpentry, not metal and has only collected there as a result of sitting for so long.

Also apologise for the flash reflection off some of the bearings pics and lack of quality in others; stupid iphone.

Crank: $250
Block: $300 (Includes timing belt, tensioners, baffles, rb25 style sump etc)
Rods & Pistons: $120

Will do it all together for $550 ono :)


Would prefer pickup but can probably sort freight if required.

PM me for my number (Hate seeing my phone number come up in google Zzz)

Thanks,
Mark.

    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
    • meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)
