R33 and R34 cranks have the longer collar to run the oil pump as the R32 cranks had a thin one that can cause the pump to fail. You can add the collar to them.

I don't think there is any strength differences, if there are it's minor.

They can all be used in any RB26.

New from Nissan here, the last one was around $2500-$3000 ( I don't recallexactly how much we paid now ..) They are R34 GTR cranks, ex Japan. Got it in 1 week.

Second hand cranks go from $100-$1500. Quite often when bearings run the crank goes beyond tolerances.. and is no good unless you use different bearings, which is a bad idea.

A good second hand one with no wear would be worth over $1000.

The main thing to look for is worn thrusts and cracks.

Thanks, Is it fair to say that a used crank evenwith new larger sized bearings (after the crank is ground) will never be the same? Sorry to be such a newbie here but is it possible the re-ground crank & new bearings is more likely to fail as opposed to a new crank with new bearings? or are we just talking lady luck here?! :Paranoid:

Say you go for the r34 crank, what con-rod bearings would you recomend? (say 550whp) also do the rod bolts? Again type to go for?

No cash for steel.... so have to make do with stock'ish setup.

What will the stock crank hold? if held down, good oil supply?

Sorry.. question city here!

Fark me Troy, is there anything you can't do? Honestly, that's bloody amazing. So much for "jack of all trade, master of none" :P

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
