Haven't had any interest in car so just selling engine, if no interest in engine then I'll start parting it out. Heads up that I don't have much spare time to pull it down so please understand the big bits will be sold first and small parts last if it comes to it.

Car has made 465hp @ wheels, had a lot of fun building it but haven't got the time or money to put it to use. In the time its taken to build I've gone from a single full boost hoon to a happily married sedate loving father. Having two kids under two years old makes it a lil hard to get out to the track and I'm not one for a Sunday drive anymore. If not sold as package I will keep some bits so I can put a stock motor in for the odd hill climb or to sell the car.

Whole lot $13,000 (should be everything you need for conversion to RB30/26)

I made the catchcan, 4 liters works well. Wasn't intending to sell it but I also didn't think I'd ever want to sell the engine. Let me know how much you'd pay for one and I'll think about it. Might even see if I could build another.

I did a compression test a couple weeks ago and thought the compression was a little low and I just found out why, there is a rubber o-ring missing where the spark plug thread adapter screws on, without it it screws up to far. Also just been told that I should be doing the test hot with all spark plugs out and throttle open which I wasn't doing before so I'll give it another try this weekend.

Power FC not sold, got a bit ahead of myself.

Price change to $12,000 ono for complete engine package

Price change to $17,000 ono for full car

Compression test redone, much better, pics attached aprox 150 over all. Engine was about 50-60degrees so not hot but still warm and throttle was held open unlike last time.

Also found video of last event I did, just small mucking around stuff.

17psi, engine would be able to make more but that was max fuel. Need to upgrade fuel pump and fuel lines but I believe it already needs a stronger gearbox with this much power.

    • I would be looking at the tune mate. How do you know that you have such a low dynamic compression?  I had to dumb mine down because it was too jumpy when taking off (too much torque).  What ECU? Do you need help with the tune? 
    • Surely the cam timing is set to something stupid at low RPM?
    • Hi guys, Sorry to butt in and take it slightly off course, although still on the VCAM subject.  I had VCAM put into my Tomei 2.8 bottom end and I struggle to take off because the engine has very little torque caused by VERY low dynamic compression at 60psi. But once off the mark and especially on boost, the engine rev happily all the way to 8000rpm and makes 630hp at 20psi of boost on E85 at the rear hubs. Has anyone had any similar experience or any suggestions on what might cause this low compression at low rpm? I am in the process of converting it into a 8hp transmission and with this low torque, the engine would not even stay running until the throttle is opened to more than 30% and then I loose all vacuum. 
    • Last year I got a set of MCA street coilovers for my turbo Forester after my son hitting a concrete gutter/wall on a small bridge causing the whole drivers side suspension to get bent because the rain just made the car slide out I love them, I think they were $2400. even had a hiccup of have the wrong hub configuration (my fault) so got onto MCA and they sent the correct shock ends overnight parts from QLD, for free!  I was very impressed with their customer service and quality of the product
