Blueprinted RB28 Neo

I don't expect to sell this, especially not quickly, but here we go, it's up for sale, and I await burny flames, because "Greg Car™"

What I have is a fully blueprinted, literally built yesterday RB28/29 RB25DET Neo with juicy VCT, unlike you dirty RB26 people. It's also in a car, running, and available for any test you would like to do. In fact, I'd encourage it. The blueprints are obviously included with the same and to have a look at beforehand and all that.

The pertinent info:

Compression is 9.01:1
It has a Brian Crower stroker kit from the USA in it (http://www.briancrower.com/view.php?pn=BC0238) 
86.5mm pistons that were custom made by JE and Nitto to fit the Neo head (the kit was for RB25DET and RB26)
I say JE and Nitto as they are actually badged with both brand names.
JUN Oil pump
Lewis Engines baffled/gated and extended sump.
R34 has 1.27mm restrictor in it standard, one feed has been blocked off. The oil returns in the head and the
block have been enlarged.

ARP2000 Head Studs
ARP Main Studs
ACL Race Bearings
Tomei Metal HG, 1.2mm.
Tomei Type B 260deg Cams
Tomei Exhaust Cam Gear which does nothing but is installed..
Supertech Valve Springs

The head was ported and polished and unlike most ports and polish actually helped performance a pretty big
amount. And by "helped performance" I mean along the lines of the same power at about 10psi less boost.

Being built yesterday, it has a full OEM Nissan Gasket set for everything minus the HG, and new belts.

If it's so amazing, why do I want to sell it? I only aim to make 300kw going forward. A stock engine would be better for me. 

I'd love 12k for it, and I'm sure you'll offer lower, the price may sound insane but keep in mind..

a) The BC kit alone costs $6000USD before shipping.
b) It's a legally registerable engine for those who are worried about RB30's engine numbers in engine bays.
c) It's already built, so no waiting for you
d) It's already running, come test it, drive the car, be sure about it without those post build worries and niggles that do appear at times.

So if this is something you wanted to build, well there's no way it's going to happen cheaper, faster and simpler than just taking this one out.
I could include photos of the build if really needed, but it looks like an assembled engine, unlike most, I went out of my way to not make it look interesting. No flashy rocker cover paint here.
Come drive the thing, test the thing, etc instead!

If interested, send a PM! Negotiations, swaps, etc all welcome.

This engine is still running strong for 25,000kms since I posted this.

 

Do you want a reliable forged motor for less than half of what it would cost you, about fifteen times faster than doing it yourself? How much assurance do you reckon you will get from old mate building your motor over the course of two years, for 20K?


Buy this instead. It works.

Unfortunately not really as I would certainly die attempting to use such a bike, and as I know zero about bikes I'd have to sell it like a complete n00b in any case.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
