Have a spare Rb26dett engine ($3k)

Complete, only things missing are air flow meters and computer

Good condition and good compression

No longer needed as I have a rebuilt engine ready to go into my race car if it blows up (this engine was a spare that I never used as the car is still going strong)

Engine was removed from a running car that was imported and stripped for spares

Come and inspect it, inappropriately touch it, and buy it

Located in Lower Blue Mountains Sydney

I also have a complete Gtr head with intake and exhaust with a wiring loom for sale $1500, perfect for an Rb30 conversion

i am quite keen on this, you say complete so i take it stock turbos are attached? Im still contemplating the reliability on these old 32 26's with out a rebuild. Your probly the right person to ask, How much would i bee looking at to get this "forged" to hold a reliable 300kw all day every day

The engine itself will hold 300kW with an awesome tune quite well. The rods are good for that and the pistons will last if the tune is right. Its more a question of how warn is the engine, are the rings fried, does the head need to be reconditioned etc.

The biggest issue is the oiling system in these. Thats the big one to be sorted, and how to sort it depends on what the car is to be used for.

Really, you could get away with forged pistons, new bearings, an acid bath and hone, basic head rebuild, metal head gasket, arp head studs, but spend your money on a crank collar, good harmonic balancer and either an N1 pump with billet gears or a high flow jap oil pump such a Tomei unit with a correctly sized restrictor in the block. If its for track use, fit a large sump, mines baffle plates etc.

That would have you a good setup. But you wont see much, if any change from $6k. I'm currently up to $5k and that doesn't include bearings, ANYTHING head related, just pistons, rods, harmonic balancer, an an oil pump, no labour for anything yet either. Thats with the best of the best gear though.

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
