Not much point having a built engine with a stock turbo, so if you're saying you will get the rebuild done you may as well factor in a few other things to go with it, like ecu & turbo just for a start.

try x-speed

top racing

imports 101

ovaboost

ring them and tell em what u want done and ask them for a rough price

go directly to Applied Automotive...

a lot of big name workshops in WA actually send their motors to these guys to get built....

so yeah.

but heh, theyre building my 26/30 so of course im gonna recommend them

why going rebuild?

its so cheap to buy second hand engines these days, and you can reliably get over 400rwhp without a problem from an internally stock RB25

save your money, buy more mods - have more fun for the same $$$

Go the second hand engine - KYP, cost you 1500 or if you want more, buy a RB30 bottom end - get a cheap stocko freshen up - bolt on RB25 head

there are so many 'built' engines out there already, that arent being pushed past what a stock bottom end can easily handle - it just doesnt make sense. (built engines often need a freshen up every 30,000km or so - its just more expensive all around)

dont get caught up in the 'I got a forged rebuild' hype - over-engineering wont give you more power, or make your dick bigger.

(back to your question - Heinz Engineering do good work )
