This engine will be removed from my R32 GTR around the 10th Dec. So you can here it running, have a look at the oil pressure and the overall general condition before that date. I will be carrying out a compression test before it's removed.

Since importing the car in April 2005 I have done around 10,000kms on the engine. Unsure on the exact amount of km's but general condition the engine and paint starting to flake off the plenum would suggest around 100,000.

The GT-SS turbo kit was installed in July last year and has approximately 5,000kms on it. An Exedy 9 Puk extra heavy duty clutch was fitted around May 2005.

The engine comes complete minus the following parts:-

Injectors + Rail + Regulator

Dumps

Wiring Harness

The alternator, power steering pump and aircon compressor are not included.

The cam belt was replaced prior to the vehicle leaving Japan (the speedo read 3,500kms, now reads 19,100 ish).

With a fairly safe tune the car made 404 rwhp on 19psi using a D-Jetro computer (not included in sale but can supply the map).

Please no low ball offers (they will be ignored) and I am not interested in swaps or breaking it up at this stage.

Freight can be arranged country wide. My suggestion is Air Road Direct. I paid roughly $300 to get an RB26 freighted from Brisbane to Perth.

i will take the GTSS turbo kit if you think of seperating

[jonn]

Not interested in breaking it up.

Thanks

[Crans]

Very interested. Just afew questions.

Why are you selling it?

For extra would you include the injectors rail reg and dumps?

[jonn]

I have a new engine going in. I bought a 26 last year so the car wouldn't be off the road for an extended period. The injectors etc are going on the new engine.

Thanks.

So the reason for the new RB26DETT?

Strange to just "Swap engines"

Have you had the compression check done yet?

[Antimatter]

In Johns defence - not strange at all to want to Just swap engines, even if there is nothing apperntly wrong with the one you are taking out (especially if you are going the next step up in power). It means you can minimise the time your car is off the road. Having an eninge ready to go in can mean having your car off the road for just days, rather than weeks (or months) if you are to take everything out - have it all stripped, measured and machined and then chase the parts you need to build your "tough" RB26.... (or RB28 for that matter)

sorry... just my 2c (going through a similar transition myself...)

Agreed.......

Good luck with the sale

[MBS206]

I wasn't having a go, but it was unclear if the new engine was worked, or another stocker. hence the reason for questioning.

[jonn]

New engine is an HKS 2.8 with everything done and then some. I didn't want the car off the road for an extended period so I bought a 26 that had spun a bearing and got that one rebuilt.

Compression test will be for peace of mind of the buyer and I didn't want to sell someone a dud. Haven't got the guage yet but will post up results when I do.

Thanks
