Not wow as in big, wow as in that has to be one of the neatest getting around.

thanks mate, just bought it about a month ago, slowly slowly, hopefully it'll see some track time early next year

Oh...

That's not the 33R that blew it motor at Sandown is it? Sold by Bel a month or so ago?

Correct, as I've been pulling the motor apart, I found a decent sized crack in the block behind the alternator. I think it threw a rod in cylinder 1 =/

So yeah it did get track time and hopefully it will get some more track time when I manage to source a motor

you got me =P

In all seriousness, if anybody has a contact or is selling an R33 RB26, with engine number (RB26-059xxx) onwards, please let me know. I'm keen as mustard to get this thing running!

Yeah, I was tracking that same day with him.

What are your plans? Buy a second hand rb26 and put it straight in? or a rebuild?

If your doing a rebuild, feel free to PM me and I can get you a quote

Also have a mate who has a n1 block in his garage that I'm trying to twist his arm to sell it

Edit: just read your above post

Damn...Well yeah, at least the rest of the car is clean and straight as!

Well I'm not gonna rebuild it with this block. Depends what I can get really from now till end of year. If I can find a good 2nd hand one, I'll just do a mild refresh (Cosworth 1.1mm HG, ARP2000 rod bolts, ARP headstuds, oil restrictor, enlarge oil returns, baffled sump, new water pump, N1 oil pump, blah blah blah)

If not, then I'll look for a bare block perhaps N1 like you said, new head, new crank, CP+Eagle combo, Tomei Type B and all the rest of the above plus all the other usual stuff
