  1. Ok Guys I had this up a few months ago however I was not in the same place as the engine and It was hard to dig out the parts and organise pick up ect. So the engine is now up for sale again until the 17th of July. The 26 came out of my 33 as it threw the harmonic balancer. Besides the block everything else is in working order. If your interested give me a bell on 0431625309 or PM. Cheers, OB
  2. Hey mate, sorta desperate to get this stuff gone. What were you looking for?

  3. Heaps of parts for sale guys, I need these gone so make me an offer on whatever you want, it was out of a front cut so I have everything. I need this stuff gone.
  4. Alright, I have a full RB26DETT sitting in my garage that I need to get rid of. The engine is in peices so tell me what you need and I should be able to organise it. Either Pm me or post on this topic for more info. The Block would suit rebuilt, it's 50 thou oversize however the cynliders are damaged, I have had the block checked by engineers and it will go out to 1mm so there is room to move there. Other than that there is no damage to the rest of the engine, it's in fairly good nick. So drop me a line if you want anything.

    Hey everyone. I used to live on the Gold Coast (now live in Canberra) But I'm up here for holidays. I have a silver 4 door R33 GTS4 and I'm really keen for a cruise or even just to meet up. I've seen Baskin and Robbins mentioned a few times, which one is it? Just so I know where to come and say G'day
  8. Hey mate, got photo's of those wheels and I'm interested in that power fc
  9. Haha, Guess you guys were right. Mechanic just called me with a new price 7k without pistons He's hopeing I don't need pistons
  10. Nah it's being rebuilt with decent parts. The cheap part is the larbour. The guy only charges 77$ an hour. Nispro wanted 180$ an hour for labour. But yeah i'm putting all dencent parts in it like ACL race bearings, I geniune RB26 crank (gonna see how much an HKS drop forged crank is) and loads of other stuff I can't remember
  11. Well turns out she needs a full rebuild. So I'll have a rebuilt 26 soon I guess. It's costing me 4.6k though
  12. Just need a new wheel for my R33. Anyone got one?
  13. Haha Nice. That actualy made me laugh. Well I should find out what the total damage is tomorrow. The mechanic was gonna have her stripped down tonight. Fingers crossed she's ok
  14. Ok, here's the story, I started my drive from canberra to the Gold Coast at around 11 30 on sunday arvo. The car (my R33) was going really well, loving the highway and the room to stretch her long legs. I was sitting pretty until we hit the light horse interchange and I noticed that the temp guage had moved to about 3/4 I thought it could have been because of the long drive and I was running everything, So I turned off the aircon and kept going. We got off the highway to head through sydney and the first set of lights we hit the temp gauge jumped right up the the line before the 'H" so I pulled over and there was water pissing out of the overflow bottle. I let her sit and called NRMA, he came out and notice a few small leaking pipes but nothing major. And jeremy told me about a manual overide switch for the thermo fan. SO at about 5pm I started off again. Once again just plowing along. I was fine until 0300 when I was just north of Coffs Harbour and I heard a strange noise when I hit one of the thousand pott holes in that road. I heard it again about 30 seconds later, still not sure what was going on. So I looked down at the dash and noticed the battery light was off, once again I was running everything so I just turned off the radio. As I went around the next corner I noticed the power steering had died. Anyway I was about 2 mins from a servo so I pulled in there and had a look in the engine bay and there is my Harmonic balancer sitting off at a really bad angle. I got towed into woolgoolga and they confirmed (the next day) that the crank had been totally flogged out. So in the next week she's getting a new crank, new harmonic balancer, new bearings, new oil pump, new thermostat for the radiator, and new radiator lines. OK well now that's off my chest lol. To make this topic interesting how about people post up their own "epic journeys" where everthing has just gone wrong Cheers, OB
  15. Hey Everyone, I know it's been a while since I was on the forum but I finally bought my Skyline. Anyone meeting up tonight? and what Museum are we talking about?

  20. The 32 looks pretty good. Cheers for the heads up Quick question, how much is a immaculate stock 32 gtr worth?
  21. That depends when you want to sell it. I'm not going to have the cash until around december so yeah
  22. Yeah I do like the look better than the 33s and 34s. I've put WTB add in the SAU classifieds so hopefully I find myself a jem of a 32. Hey you guys meet on a friday night yeah?
  23. Hey, I'm wanting to buy a manual R32 at the end of the year. I've been looking around and there a few out there but I want something that has been owned by a proper enthusiast. I am willing to buy between 10 and 15k and am living in the ACT at the moment. Anyone got anything in mind? Cheers, OB
