Comments: Motor was build around 2 years ago has everthing there needs to be done forged pistons, shot peaned rods, ARP rod bolts, stainless single turbo manifold, 48mm external waste gate, GCG 3582R (same as 3540)turbo, metal head gasket, microtec, MSD 18 volt ignition, has its own wiring harness. If going into an R32 i have stainless steel cooler piping and 600x300 cooler to go with if want at extra cost.

Motor has around 25,000ks has always ran Castrol Formula R eng oil which i change very reg, has 342BHP on 18psi which is mid boost for the last 12 months it ran 487BHP with a TA45 drag turbo on 18psi for 12 months before that so the motor has got the power if you want it. Full boost @ 3,200rpm It sounds good and strong rite thru the revs.

I want around $14,000 for this iam a little neg on the price. Iam looking for an RB26 doesnt matter if its blown up or worked off its head or a 32 gtr we can come up with a deal. PM me if you got any questions cheers.

Something just doesn't add up: The engine only made 250rwkw, using a GT35R turbo@18psi + manifold + MSD igniter. Doesn't sound right or good :P

As previous examples have shown, that set up "should" make about 350rwkw@18psi.

Do you have any dyno graphs?

Yeh i do have graphs. They do say 342hp on 18psi its dumped on its guts with coilovers but dont have camber arms we couldnt get much traction after around 5,000rpm. Hey look you are dead write about the combo it should make shit loads more on the same day a mate of mine has the same set up in the same car same built motor and it made 450hp on 18psi. He has camber arms so he has 0 camber and nice wide tyres. But hey i put thats price up there as a starting price i did say i was neg abit it ows me alot and i wanted to see what sort of response id get. If someone offers me good money then maybe ill sell. Id like to no what you think its worth cause if its not what i want then ill just keep it doesnt realy bother me. Cheers

What i think its worth?

About half the asking price mate in all honesty.

Having sold a full built set-up myself in the past (and a couple of mates have also), you wont see anywhere 14k for a motor with pistons and a big turbo :P

    • That's awesome. Fully serviced/full log book history for one of those cars is super rare from what I know. With JDM's like Skyline's, Supras, are quite hard to find one with full log book history. S15's seem to be somewhat of an exception, at least the spec s australian delivered models.
    • Hey all, It's been a bit since I have been able to update.  I pulled the fuel pump, first off it was a "universal" pump and the strainer was very clogged, and it was folded over on itself.  I replaced the fuel pump and all is well....  No more stalling.
    • That's convinced me I'll bump up the G30-660 to 770   Any idea if the difference in boost pressure? Cheers

    • Hey guys so turns out this project is going to be much bigger than I thought haha but I've done some my homework and have done a few panels on my car, but one part I can just not visualise is this. If I do a spot repair and I put filler in a dent for example and sand outside of the repair with 320 grit lets say so the primer can stick as I will only put primer on that repair and the surrounding area and then repaint the whole panel. Don't I need to make sure that I don't put primer on the old clear coat? I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down, it's still shiny. I thought putting paint on clearcoat or primer on clearcoat is a bad idea because it won't stick. So in this scenario it's a bit different to mine but imagine someone doing a spot repair and only painting that small section of repair but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat. What am I missing?
