Here's a heads-up to any SAU'ers chasing an elusive R34 GTR RB26DETT. This engine has less than 15,000 genuine kilometres on it. Those in the know will already recognise the R34 spec' engine as a superior RB series to what I have in my car and any of the R32 GTR's. If you're not up to speed, the 34 RB26DETT had different lift and duration on the factory "bumpsticks"- which is one of the reasons why 34's have more Kw and torque straight out of the box over other GTR engines. You can't retro fit these cams to earlier engines; the head had a totally different casting to make the camshafts fit. Plus the 34 block has the same strengthening "webbing" that the fabled N1 blocks have: much better strength once you start to lean on these engines. This particular engine is a long motor: no turbos or plenum. Everything else is there. Whilst the engine is easily viewable, I don't need a million wannabe engine tuners wasting my time; if you're SERIOUSLY considering the best of the RB26's, drop me a PM.

Price $7,500 (Authentication of Km’s available)

I think thats a great price, surprised no ones got back to you about it.

I just rebuilt my RB25det for 8k (with mods), I would have loved to have got that engine from you :)

Do you know the specs on the cams? Cause I have seen R32, 33 and 34 GTR cams and they are all exactly the same profile.

The engine is a refined version of the all powerful RB26DETT, performance has been boosted by the increase of 15.6kg-m/litre of engine torque, (this is the best per-litre figure of any domestically produced 6-cylinder engine displacing over 2.0 litres.) In comparison to the engine used in the R33 GT-R, the camshafts have been modified to improve valve timing, which has enabled the increase just mentioned.

You will also find that when you order any camshafts, the 32 & 33 have the same part numbers but the 34 has a different one meaning there not the same. :thankyou:

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
