Any1 Have A Spare R33 Crank?

[stunnd]

hi guys, i was jus wonderin if any1 has a spare r33 crank out there? i found out yesterday that austarlia an nissan japan r out! every1 is waitin for the back order in japan but they havent told any1 how long the wait is...so my engine rebuild has come to a halt...so i have 4 options...

1. wait till the back orders r ready (which have been told that it could take either jus weeks or months!) an do the rebuild...

2. get a 2nd hand r32 crank in good cond. an put a jun crank collar on an continue with the rebuild...but have been told its nots recommened kos bein 2nd hand crank it could crack at any time...

3.for about $6000-6500 i can get an r33 rb26dett put in with an exchange 4 my old engine...not sure wat condition the r33 engine is in an also only get 3 month warranty with it...

4.for about $9000 i get the r33 engine put in an also keep my old engine...again get 3 months warranty...

so wat do u guys think? which option should i go for?

or obviously if i can get a new crank all 2gether than ill take that option...

thanks 4 the advice guy...

GTR crank??

if your prepared to fork out 6k for a replacement motor than why not order a N1 34 crank? from memory there 1.4k from nissan? i may be wrong but theres a starting figure

impul, this is what hes trying to do, unfortunately nissan aus and world wide, are out of cranks, and don't know whent hey will have anymore..

i luckily scored one late last year for my car from a private seller in the east still in the box, so that may be one option, get some adds intot he for sale sections..

otherwise, get your old crank checked for straightness and if it needs a polish/grind and re-use it, if its not cracked it will be fine to use.. and get the jun collar installed if you have an early model 32 crank

ahhh ok my bad

i know imports101 have used 34N1 cranks in a couple motors of late, it might be worth giving them a call to see if they have a spare stock one if you get desperate.

good luck
