Just got a couple of quotes back for a standard rb26 bottom end swap.. 7-9k ouch.. :ninja:

Looking at a couple of built long motors in japan the moment.. One's a tomei 2.8, 270 tomei cams, tomei oil pump, N1 water pump etc. in a N1 block. Motor has just under 4000k's on it.. May aswell get it checked out by a shop over there and do it right the first time i spose..

Can't justify spending that kind of money on a standard bottom end..

sucks. :laugh:

rb30? :ninja:

I've considered this.. But weezy gets mad and reckons it's molesting it.. Might throw in a rb30et with a A6 bottom end just to make him rage.. haha

Fitspatrick had a rb26 awd adapter for $450 (don't know if they still do) then there's around $600 in machine work to relocate the oil pick up then drill and re tap the rb30 for bigger head studs and a tensioner..

Thats about as much as i've looked into it so far.

Dayum thats quite cheap...

Bargain if you can get it, tho I hate to think what the shipping fees are for something so heavy

-D

Yeah it's cheap at the moment and shipping is around the $1500 mark from what i saw. I'm keen if it goes for under 9k..

That would be around 11k all up including shipping and taxes.

If it goes for any more it might be a better option to get a nitto 2.7 built here..

Weezy has a point (as a purist lol) as Rb30 bottom ends are awesome for the power gain, but the car loses value when you take the original rb26 out of it, which is the only reason I'm going to stick with the 26 bottom end

No pos RB30 bottom ends should be in a GT-R imo

:ninja:

Dont get me wrong, I'm all for twin cam RB30's in VLT's, GTSTs, etc but not a GT-R... C'mon lol

Think I should of called before I went for a drive, went all the way to MC Doyles Crash Repairs and they were closed... as in like they didnt pay their bills and got shut down. Guess I'll have to take my business elsewhere...

11k shipped for engine worth 5800?

Who's making a couple of grand?

My r34 rb26 motor was under 3k del

Yeah bit too much for shipping. I paid 60,000yen for a pallet (~A$700). If I had more money I would have loaded it up.

And Vu plz don't go to mc doyle unless u don't care about how your car comes out.

They're that bad are they? I've heard good and bad about them, was thinking I'd try them out myself but seeing they're close, ah wells.

What i was meaning to say was i'm prepared to pay 9k maximum for it and that would be around the 11k mark delivered after shipping and taxes.. If it goes for any more than that price i'd be looking into getting a motor built here.

    • Hi all, I’m currently running a str pipe hi low hks exhaust and downpipe. Was wondering if I change out muffler to a titanium one will it change the sound of the exhaust? Plus I have always liked the look of the titanium pipes … anyone have recommendations to one?    side note already have titanium intake pipes. 
    • I looked up my other car that is a R33 GTST series 1.5. Anyone able to confirm what a Aero Form Bumper is?     (1G) 2 Door Coupe; (2GK + 11V) RB25DET; (4B) 2WD HICAS; (7F) 5 Speed Manual; (14G) Super Fine Hard Coat; (15U) Large Rear Spoiler + Aero Form Bumper + Rear Wiper (Aero Selection)
    • Ha ha, all good! I've almost caved in and realised I'm buying one.  I know myself well enough by now that I will start chasing ADHD butterflies half way through building it and not finish it so I'm better off spending the extra money buying one instead of making one just so I can get into straight away.  I would very much enjoy making one as fabrication is probably a strength and definitely a passion but I don't want that to be at the detriment to the car I'm ultimately building it for! There's some pretty good ones around for ~$1100 at the moment so I think I'll just go that way.  At the end I sell it or as mentioned, get another project to make further use of it! Thanks gents.  
    • That link was very helpful thank you.
    • That is the option code, not the VIN. Regardless all of that production is considered series 2: https://gtr-registry.com/en-ecr33-vin-table.php
