This build is taking too long.

Needs wheels up at 300ft action already

Hahaha. Getting there, mate. Crank and valvetrain bits being sent off to Pro Built Engines in QLD today.

Picture one of these but flipped the other way to suit the RB, a 100mm throttle body and a collection of Plazmaclamps to suit. Any thoughts on how it should be finished? Polished, raw, black, other? Stoked to have plazmaman.com involved in another RB engine build.

What is the best looking factory colour combo?

I like red engine covers with raw piping, subtle and purposeful :)

Just curious what head, 26 or NEO, there is so much talk about the NEO head being better then the 26 lately and given it hasn't been mentioned I thought I would ask

Subscribed, looks like it will haul arse :thumbsup:

It's a 26 head, mate. To be honest it'll be hogged out that far on the CNC and the bench the casting is the limitation. I doubt one would be better than the other from this perspective.

Yes is dumb

you should have bought a 91

Hahaha. This is the first of the Gen-2 8891. It's a little tougher than the old one and about what a 91 used to be. You never know your luck in the big city though. PTE have been pretty good to me. ;-)

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree.
