1990 turbo manual S13, 152,xxxkm’s, complied 2nd month 1997, seconded Australian owner, all modifications completed over the last 18months. 6 months rego still remaining. Always serviced every 5000kays with Mobil oils and genuine Nissan filters. The car is a dark/olive green colour and also has a sunroof.

Was originally non-turbo, but everything has been swapped over for genuine turbo gear.

Engine and Running Gear:

Fresh rebuild is 2000kays old which includes brand new ALC 40thou oversized forged pistons (1.9lt), ALC rings, Kings bearings, Genuine Nissan head gasket, full head recondition, new water pump, all new genuine gaskets ect. It’s basically a 2000kay BRAND NEW engine, Apexi Panel air filter in the stock air box, Hybrid turbo – GT28 compressor with t25 exhaust housing currently only running 8psi, stainless steal low mount exhaust manifold, stainless steal dump pipe with a 1inch split screamer vented back in, 3inch front pipe to a 3inch HKS mid section down to a 3.5inch “straight through pipe” out to the back. ARC side mount intercooler, HKS BOV and the car is running off a Mines ECU.

A low kay replacement turbo gearbox has been installed with a brand new clutch along with an R32 R200 LSD and some form of lowered springs.

Radiator has been reconditioned and the car has been fitted with a relatively new battery as well.

All receipts can be provided.

Wheels are 17inch with ok tread – 50% front 30% rear.

Misc items:

Nismo 260km cluster, Blitz turbo timer, Autotecnica steering wheel, CD player ect. Interior is all in good condition for the car’s age.

It hasn’t been on the dyno yet, so don’t ask for dyno sheets, power is expected to be around 150rwkw.

Update with things I forgot:

The car has a full alarm and immobilizer with Central locking button, and a replacement alternator was put in last week.

The exhaust is 3.5inch not 3inch like what I said in the ad, and if you didn't want the straight through tail pipe it can be swapped for the rest of the HKS rear section (HKS cannon style).

    • Well, yeah, the RB26 is definitely that far off the mark. From a pure technology point of view it is closer to the engines of the 60s than it is to the engines of the last 10 years. There is absolutely nothing special about an RB26 that wasn't present in engines going all the way back to the 60s, except probably the four valve head. The bottom end is just bog standard Japanese stuff. The head is nothing special. Celicas in the 70s were the same thing, in 4cyl 2 valve form. The ITBs are nothing special when you consider that the same Celicas had twin Solexes on them, and so had throttle plates in the exact same place. There's no variable valve timing, no variable inlet manifold, which even other RBs had either before the 26 came out or shortly afterward. The ECU is pretty rude and crude. The only things it has going for it are that the physical structure was pretty bloody tough for a mass produced engine, the twin-turbos and ITBs made for a bit of uniqueness against the competition (and even Toyota were ahead on the twin turbs thing, weren't they?) and the electronic controls and measuring devices (ie, AFMs, CAS, etc) were good enough to make it run well. Oh, and it sounds better than almost anything else, ever. The VR38 is absolutely halfway between the RB generation and the current generation, so it definitely has a massive increase in the sophistication of the electronics, allowing for a lot more dynamic optimisation of mapping. Then there's things like metal treatments and other coatings on things, adoption of variable cam stuff, and a bunch of other little improvements that mean it has to be a better thing than the RB26. But I otherwise agree with you that it is approximately the same thing as a 26. But, skip forward another 10 years from that engine and then the things that I mentioned in previous post come out to play. High compression, massively sophisticated computers, direct injection, clever measuring sensors, etc etc. They are the real difference between trying to make big power with a 26 and trying to make big power with a S/B50/54 (or whatever the preferred BMW engine of the week is).
    • Is the RB26 actually that far off the mark? Honestly from where I'm sitting a VR38DETT is not actually that much more advanced than the RB26. Yes, there is a scavenge pump on the VR38, it's smarter in a number of ways but it's not actually jumping out to me as alien technology. Something like a B58 or V35A-FTS on the other hand has so many surprising little design features that add up to be something that just isn't comparable.
