No Good

Needs to be "AWD" block to suit the sump

[Bronx]

thought the engines are the same, just the sump is modded for the front diff, just like the rb26, you just replace the sump and its just a normal engine, i didnt know there was a awd block, just thought there was a awd sump

[pipster11]

your half right mate

the awd sump is wider tho, so you need the awd rb25 block to match up to the awd sump

so technically an rb26 bolts straight in

if i hone back the engine... ill have to go bigger pistons correct?

is there anyway i can use a 2nd hand piston??

[Bronx]

ofcourse you can use 2nd hand pistons, just make sure you get the correct piston ring sizes. otherwise, its fine.

[pipster11]

yeah or you can get factory oversized pistons

on the others it should have a 1 or a 2 stamped into the top of the piston

that will be the size that that bore was honed to at the factory

dunno if you have to go bigger if you hone tho

No

Only go bigger pistons if you "bore" (machine) the block from 86mm to either 86.5mm or 87mm max

Hone is just sort of like sanding it, so you will keep the same size piston, but usually fit new rings.

You could use a second hand piston. It will have to be from a "neo" engine as they are different to R33's etc.

With the mess you have in that cyinder, I would b3 stripping the entire block to flash out any foriegn metal particals etc.

Otherwise you will get it all back togather and have problems later.

With the amount of problems you are YET to face and lack of experience, I would suggest finding a complete long motor and move on.

ive kinda sources a 26 and box but i would also like to get this back on the go aswell.

i wont be doing any engine work as such, just re assembling it

i will take this engine out. get it honed back where needed.. drop a 2nd hand piston and new rings in and hope for the best

is it true the rings are 300 a set?

If you decided to get a NEO front cut.

I'm after a NEO 4WD auto, preferably with low KMs
