i think you can still buy brand new rb26 N1 short blocks from nissan, but im not sure about the rb25det's

no point really, just buy a 2nd hand, low kay engine

plus labour to fit prob be cheaper then a new engine from nissan anyway

up until the 90's sometime, rally-heads could still buy new Datsun 1600 shells from Nissan

Carlos put a stop to those sort of antics

doubt it. a crate engine will cost more than a rebuild anyway.

something i want to point out, you speaking with a MECHANIC about doing an ENGINE REBUILD?

i'd go to a workshop that specializes in RB rebuilds, i bet you will get a different response.
