Hey guys im after a rb25 engine for my next build.

Ideally im after a good condition long motor complete from sump to rocker covers and full wiring loom if possible.

Doesnt need to have intake, exhaust manifold, injectors, coil packs or anything really but i wont turn one down if it has all that for the right price.

MUST and thats MUST be in good condition, even better if i can get a comp test an hear it running.

Located an hour south of adelaide, but may contemplate postage from interstate.

Show me what you got guys!

I have a R33 vct head, in pieces, flow bench ported, cut out for 10.8mm 26 cams, seats have been cut for +1mm stainless steel valves(they've been sold) needs exhaust guides, was going to convert it to the tomeii solid lifters in place of the hydraulic lifters and put on a 30 bottom end but i found a cheap 26 head

$450 for the head and all the stock parts plus postage if your interested

    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
    • Don't do what I did, use a 300000km old housing with billet gears. The old pump probably was clearanced with saw dust, Edward Lee's special engine treatment sauce and a good odo wind back. I had oil pressure issues, then replaces pump with new housing, new billet gears and 2x track day later binned a motor due to other oil related issues due to a previous engine builder. Long story short, buy a M2 or 3 or 4 N55/S55/S58 and enjoy life.
    • Yeah. "New pump" does not have to mean "massive pump".
    • Well, can you still get an OEM pump, and by the time you're buying a Nismo/N1 etc, just buy another aftermarket pump. It's better to have the pump able to flow more if its needed, than for your pressure to drop off. At any point in time, you're replacing the oil pump in a rebuild. Aftermarket pumps are likely going to be a better economical choice, and they don't have any negatives, even if they can flow more.   Also, when you're saying "replace the pump gears" are you meaning leave a 25+ year old housing in the engine with unknown wear, and just put new gears in? As that sounds silly to me, especially if you do have that minute amount of wear, that means your new pump gears now have a little bit more clearance beside them, which means, whelp, you may not get to build a lot of oil pressure or make a lot of flow.
    • Right, but if you replace the pump gears + put a spline or sine drive gear on the crank on a Nismo/OEM/N1/etc pump at that point do you really still want more flow/oil pressure? Let's say this is a the aforementioned "keep it simple" build, no more than ~400 kW at the crank.
