hey guys, I need some help, with obtaining measurements of an rb26 N1 block.

any help will be very appreciated, please specify what points you are measuring from, and if possible please include pictures of every possible angle of the block (front, back, top, bottom.etc).

thanks guys

common guys, we need measurements from the following points:

center of crankshaft to top of block

top to bottom of block (front), back to front (top and side) longest points

need lengths of spacing in the cradle (edge to edge-please specify where you measured) need width of cradle journals.

please, any help will be appreciated

I think its a case of no one just having N1 blocks sitting around. :)

Best bet is to just buy one if you need to do anything specific with one

just a bit to expensive for us at the moment mate, could someone just measure up a standard one from the specified points please?

I also would...but I only have the RB26DETT...not N1.

sorry.

would you be able to grab some of the standard block please mate? It seems no one has an N1 block at the moment.

If anyone has an rb26 block for sale near brisbane we will buy one to get measurements.

thanks for the reply's guys.

cheers

On that note, I am guessing a RB26 N1 Block is the size as the Normal RB16 block as it is the same engine, just made from stronger material.

N1 blocks are cast from the same parent material as 05U blocks. The difference is thicker cylinder walls and deck thickness to prevent bores splitting and cracking around the head studs which 05U blocks are prone to.

Thanks for clearing that up! :down:

But size wise it is still the same..?

Sure, can measure it tomorrow if you want. from which points? just length and width of the block itself?

I have a RRR block sitting on my stand waiting for my car to arrive. I can measure that on the weekend if you like.

Let me know ...

yeah thanks mate, that would be well appreciated,

hey mate, yeah from the above points, and any diagonals. that would be great

cheers guys, thanks for the intrest

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
