Finally Got My Rb25 Some Questions About Maintanance

[335]

Hello

I finally got my RB 25 engine from what I told everyone about in the summer. It is about 4 years old.(previous owner ordered one from Nissan.) It has a 1.2 metal head gasket and a Greddy Front plenum on it.

The engine was sitting in a car ( car did not run, not complete) for a year or more next to the ocean. The pulley wheels have rust. Should I replace all of the pulley wheels? Should I replace the alternator? Should I replace the power steering pump wheel? The last time the engine was in a car, it ran fine.(different car.)

What other things should I check for on the engine?

help please

Pictures will help, is it rust or just rust stains? If it's just rust stains you could probably just use baking soda or sandpaper it off

Before starting, you will want oil + filter change, pour alittle engine oil into each spark plug hole to lubricate the top of the pistons, also disconnect the CAS so the engine turns but doesn't fire to build up oil pressure before actually starting it.
