Hks Rb26 Block

[Gts-t]

New product coming from HKS, god knows how much but good to see them still releasing new parts for the rb26. Might come pre bored for their 86.5 or 87mm rb28 kits im not sure. Let the speculation and dreaming begin!

interesting

[Gts-t]

Actually can anyone read what it says?

[Scott Black]

I can't.

[Anfanee]

oh my god....

but but but but i swear my block suddenly got a crack in it.

So much want!

[zebra]

Why?

Unless they have radically altered the oiling system etc then there would be no point in paying HKS tax

[Anfanee]

Because HKS

If they are actually making a whole brand new block why don't they go straight to 3 Litres?

^^The sound.

That would require common sense.

[Piggaz]

Be intersting to see what these are worth and what's actually done to them to warrant the #omgHKSGTR price tag.

Whats the bet they have bought the superseded tooling for GT500 blocks from whoever used to do it.

Fark displacement. Cubes are for special need kids. Grown ups are not afraid of revs and boost

[XKLABA]

Yeah but adding revs and boost with cubes is where the big boys play

This, soooo much farkin this, if they have a clue they would copy the OS 3.0 deck height

Didn't you recently add another 500 cc in your car by the way of an RB25?

[sneakey pete]

extra 20mm deck height, bore of 89mm or so, throw in some boost, ????, profit?

[Anfanee]

It looks to be for the 2.8L configuration.

What's the difference between a 2.6, 2.7 or 2.8? That's just crank length

All of which can have an 86.5, 87, 87.5 or 88 mm

piston if you want?

Unless it comes with a matching set of pistons for the "pre machined block", this block adds no advantage if that's the case. Even then, what's a bore and hone?

[Anfanee]

I think it comes with a matching kit. Still trying to find out more info

[GTRPSI]

I doubt they made a thicker bore or improved the oil drains.....

What they needed to do was copy the 2JZ block and make it fit to the RB26 head, problems all solved.

Nope.

Unless by recently you mean over 2 years ago. In which case I did slap a forged motor that cost less than a wrecker RB20 in my car as it was the cheapest (albeit very lucky) way to get the car back on the road.
