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:

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
