I have a rb20det engine for sale, A guy sold it to me saying it was a mint runner but when I put it in my car I found out it has low compresion in cylinder 1 also the oil pressure sat very low and the tappets were noisy :(

here is the compression results 110,160,135,150,132,132. I did a dry test with the engine warm and thats what I got I then put 10ml of oil in number 1 and it went upto 150 so I have been told that its probably the rings that have failed...

the engine will come as pictured with the rocker covers, timing belt covers, crank pulley, intake manifold, injectors etc. It wont come with any sensors,wiring or accessories like alternator etc

I have a crane to assist with pick up and am located in Rochedale 4123

Im after $200 for it, please contact me on 0420 767 957 if you have any questions

    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
    • Shall we... wake you up when September ends?  
    • I got the Repco video recommended on YouTube.  
    • Welcome Mark. Do you have a Skyline or are you looking to get one?
