guys,

making the move from rb20 -> rb26

this is a complete RB20DET + 5 speed box + ECU + loom

was tuned for 14psi on stock turbo, made 225rwhp (about 170rwkw). Chipped ECU by "CEF11E" on SAU, has been running perfectly for 3 years in the bmw, always regularly serviced and warmed before driving.

Now the bad stuff, engine has a knock in it not sure exactly what but sounds like big end bearing, this only happened on friday on my leisurely drive into work. Motor still starts and runs smooth just a consistent knock when rev'd (which i've only tested a couple of times for a short period to see what was going on). Motor will be coming out probably this weekend or next, so you can still hear it start (but wouldn't advise driving it until issue is known!)

No time to fix it, will just throw in the rb26 a little earlier than planned - so grab a bargain.

engine has just over 100,000km on it

pics attached of it in my bmw.

$500 complete ONO

(turbo side, inlet side, AFM, o2, coilpacks), pickup only. will not separate or part out.

Doesn't include:

power steering pump

sump

alternator

..as i still need these bits..!

First in first served. I dont expect it to hang around for long at this price, to part out would be worth more than this but i dont have time to pull down and send parts to buyers.

Located in brisbane area (Algester)
