Hi All,

I just got the bad news today after a compression test that i basically have to rebuild my engine. The thing is i have never been hard on her and i thought these engines were tough. Lucky i have an uncle that works for nissan and is familiar with my engine. So its not going to cost me an absolute fortune.

Does anyone know where i can get a forged internals package???

Im not going for the top of the range internals cause they are insane amounts of money that i just dont have.

Thanks ...........................lismo

Thanks.......yeah i think the jap sites are the best to get that stuff from i just looked at the one i get stuff through. i can get hks cams, hks cam gears, nizmo 740 injectors and split fire coils for $1260.00 its unbelievable if you were to pay for that stuff here you'd be up for nearly $3000

Tommo.......do you know of any more japanese sites that have an office in australia?

Yep,

http://www.nengun.com/

They are the two primary ones used by people over here, and I haven't heard bad stories from customers (apart from some parcels occasionally getting slugged by customs with duty and GST, but it's still cheaper that purchasing over here :D)

Cheers,

Tommo.

I've rebuilt my track car RB25 twice now but the last one got:

Arias forged $1300

GTR rods $300

Machining $1200 which included full balance, lightened flywheel, o ringed block (so you can use the standard head gasket for good power easily > 300rwkw), machine clean and straighten crank, prep clean block for build and size rods.

ACL Race bearings $140

plus all the gaskets etc.

I do my builds myself so save on about 25 hours of labour. Doesn't help though when my new R34 GTR turbos blow wrecking the engine :(

Be cautious of the bore size as it may already have been rebuilt but Rocket industries http://www.rocketindustries.com.au/ ship the Arias overnight, so check 'em then order.

I'll be back home in Brisvegas later in the year so hope to see the finished product.

GTR geoff,

Thats sounds good to me and in my price range too..... Thanks for your help.

I think i will do exactly that. The only thing is i will still have the standard turbo as the money i was going to use to buy a new one is now going to be used to rebuild the engine. So thats gonna suck having the engine power but not be able to use it!!!

Yeah it's a bummer when you have to hold off. Do it right though and protect with a power FC and proper tuning before lifting the boost. You can still wreck forged internals with overexuberant boost and not enough fuel. I see you already have a FMIC so that's good.

:rofl:

    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
