Gday, just had my gtr rebuilt and ive got it up to 1500ks on the engine, a bit over.

Just wondering if this sounds right

the car spun a bearing....

all they did was fixed that and replaced piston rings, cost 4,500 bux...

should they have done more to make it a safe engine?

It all depends on what was wrong with rest of it and what you wanted them to do .

As it costs heaps for labour i would have done lots more but thats me and dont forget it costs money, lots of it ..

The $4500 you paid they spend $300 for a gasket set $200 for piston rings and about $250 for bearings .

Depending on what was wrong with the crank, maybe a grind and then undersize bearings another $150 max and $350 to service the cil head if they did that . All the rest is labour to R+R engine and strip and put together .

More details are needed.

Did they remove and replace the engine from the car.

What did you ask to be done to the engine.

Did they give you a quote

To some $4500 sounds alot maybe but with all the information and details, maybe $4500 was a bargain
