so that list is everything thats in the new bottom end you want to buy?

how many k's or new? sounds alright i guess, how much power you aiming to hit it with? you might wanna make sure everythings there before you buy

It isnt getting brought, it is getting swapped from a company, it has recept's and photo's of everything that will be going into the engine, as i have said i am swapping for a blown up vl turbo,

how much do you guy's think this be worth?

if you were to build that bottom end, and you already owned the block,

you would get change out of $2000

if you pay any more then this you need to find a new workshop.

its a stock rebuild with forged pistons and thats it.

if your VLT motor has bits worth more then $1500 that are still usable, then dont do it

theres no mention of the crank being balanced to suit the new forged oversize pistons, so if that hasnt been done it will struggle to rev past 5k and will rattle itself to bits.

Why would you reco a oil pump when a brand new N1 is only $400

sounds dodgy..

reco oil pump? what!

cps yes,(they come with pins)

billet rods.

n1 pump with collar

9:1.

standard main and head bolts.

head clean up mild cams.

thats what i would concider a reasonable build without busting the bank

ok thank's for this, was going to swap tomorrow,

so really if im going to swap what should i ask for in this bottom end?

an in the head i just basically want it rebuilt with new cams springs an make sure all is good, befor even thinking about fuel and bigger turbo,

but this bottom end has me thinking he might be taking a lend of me and getting a cheap vlt.

    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
    • Got just the wing painted and fitted up to the existing boot. Big visual change and about time after having a GTR wing sitting in the shed since 2018 Headed up to Mallala with a quick obligatory stop in at Boliver OTR Oil control mods seems to have worked. I checked the catch can after session 1 and there was a dribble of water/e85 with barely any oil in it. After session 2 and 3 there was almost nothing and I stopped checking after that. so either great success or catastrophic failure/block of the external breather The GTR wing made a noticeable difference in the 160-185km/h sweepers. It was a very hot day for the cars at over 33C but the previously done cooling upgrade/ducting/water sprayers meant I never saw over 60C intake, 105C water and 100C oil and temps would drop back down very quickly once I shut it down. AD09's are a decent tyre but certainly and expectedly a step down when compared the the CR-S/AR-1 I have had on the car for years of track days. The handling characteristics of my car which I often describe using the Tony Hawks Pro Skater balance mechanic where either side of the center is understeer/oversteer was much more pronounced with no "green/safe" zone in the middle. However, imo it steers well/easily during oversteer largely thanks to the custom ACOSTAL front end. Enjoy a loose lap POV with my mate giggling away as a passenger.   Group photo for Peer Pressure Racing made it back home and gave it a wash Overall a great success compared to my previous two track days where i cooked the Starlets motor and blew up the new diff in the R32  
    • Nice. I'm looking forward to the updates!
    • Ayooo, been a while mates. I have a s2 r33 gtst and air stopped coming out of all the top vents.   My car has always made an actuator gear noise when turning the car on but that's a different issue I think? Did searches and am at process of thinking it's an actuator or some type of motor? I see a few different actuators and don't know which one. Would be nice to know if it was the one that's under the steering wheel so the dash doesn't need to come out.
    • Hi, just checking. Did you get this stuff made by Vspec Performance and at what price roughly? Looking into (sometime later) also getting such a intake kit, and Trust as well as HKS don't make a full set like this anymore.
