Hi guys,

I have a forged Rb26 bottom i need to sell. I had some big intentions with this engine but as in the car scene some people loose interest others have priorities; i have both. I began slowly sourcing parts to build me a strong engine but the costing of the completed build has made me realize im pissing against the wind. I have managed to source another complete engine and i just want my car back on the road. As in the topic its brand new and it comes with;

Rb26 block; honed, decked, new welsch plugs and professionally cleaned

Crank; balanced and has standard size ACL race bearings

Pistons; Cp forged with standard bore size

ROds; Eagle with standard size ACL race bearings

Studs; ARP conrod bolts and main stud kit

My price is $2500 for the whole setup and im happy for anyone to bring along their measuring tools to conduct their own measuring tests. I can ship Australia wide but at buyers expense. Im best contacted on 0408578627

If anyone else is interested in one, I also have a Built Rb26 bottom end, the car only has 23000Klms on it, but the internals have less,work completed and the car garaged 5 years ago BUT only 3000Klms on the car since the work .

RB 26 Block

New Nissan RB26 crank

JE/Nitto RB26 forged pistons

Nitto H beam connecting rods

ACL race bearings main/big end

Engine rebuild Hand filed rings with Dummy assemble and measure

Machine work on engine block

and whatever else left over from a RB30/26 Nitto 3.2 build

If you are interested you could also PM me, I will get more info from the builder as I do not know what else will be discarded with the build.

I would have to get the builder to give me a quality report on it or you could go and have a look, I am sure it would be OK.

I will ask the builder for a fair price for it and post it ASAP or an offer may be accepted

spoke to the mechanic at CRD and he said as it has only just been run in $4500 would be a fair price but fair and what you get are two different things,haha

Any of the other left over bits can go with it

You could have a look at it if you want?

    • And make sure the belts are tightened appropriately too.
    • They care about emissions, and cost the most. Save weight where possible, and make manufacturing easier. Less material also let's the engine transfer heat to water quicker, and bring the engine up to temp quicker, better for emissions and getting them past their warranty period.
    • I was under the impression the reason why OEMs are going with solutions like relatively thin "right-sized" cylinder walls with technologies like PTWA and open deck is because they care a lot about whatever marginal knock margin benefits they get from that vs the structural rigidity benefits of a closed deck block and thicker cylinder walls. I also see some weird stuff like plastic inserts in the water jacket around the cylinders to try and equalize cylinder wall temperatures. re: the PRP blocks and heads at the end of the day it's hard to know what is and isn't going to work there, just have to see what the initial buyers say about it.
    • Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?
    • https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild.
