Up for sale is my RB30D long motor.

I had this built at MRC Dyno services in Castle Hill planning to put it into my R31. Unfortunately funds dried up and my wife and I are expecting our first child in September and I'm looking to start a new business so my plans of building an epic R31 will have to remain a dream for now.

I've looked high and low but I'm still missing the first and last invoices for $1500 and more than $2000 respectively, I will keep looking for these over the next few days.

I bought the RB26 head for $1200 and it came with adjustable HKS cam gears and cams. I cannot confirm the model numbers or the specs of the cams but they did have HKS on them, I asked the engine builder to measure them but he forgot.

The block is an A8 (VL turbo) block, static compression is set to 8.8:1 (fairly high compaired to a lot of 26/30's) and the conrods have been linished and shot peened. The motor is 'zeroed' and ready for completion.

Parts included:

inlet plenum

multiple throttle bodies

HKS inlet gaskets (throttle chamber gaskets)

HKS exhaust gaskets

Not included:

a few nuts and bolts (including 6 cam gear bolts)

flywheel

no computer or electrics

no looms

no exhaust manifold

most AAC stuff (hoses, aac valve, air chamber, etc) see image below:

In its current state, it would ideally suit someone with an RB26 looking to upgrade or swap out a blown RB26 or anyone willing to spend the time chasing up the bits (a lot of the missing bits people seem to bin when they strip their motors, you've just got to find someone before they throw them away - SAU would be a good hang out for this)

This motor and my plans for it were mentioned in my build thread if you want more back ground info:

I've spent close to $12,000 in total.

No offers below $9,500, my loss is your gain.

will you be in penrith next year? i saw this on drn a while ago

I'm currently looking for work on the outside as the business is taking too long to get up and running. I haven't been posted so if I don't find a job, I'll be there.

cheers,

Griffo
