checking rb25 internals...

[RTHRTY3]

anyone know of any workshop that might have one of those bore-o-scope or the likes to look down the guts of an rb25, to check cyclinders, pistons etc. just like to get the internal parts checked out, is this the right thing to do, or does anyone have any other suggestions. i'm no mechanic, so sorry if this question sound so dumb.

thanks inadvance

i think a leak down test, will tell you wat is going on inside ur engine too

leak down is the way as you cant see broken rings or lands.

im getting a gtr engine..

is it worth getting that done 1st and if it cheks out ok is there anypoint getting top end gaskets and the rest?

thanx for the replies, yea i was gonna get a leak down test done, but was wondering if some workshop could get hold of those bore-o-scope thing first to check the pistons. any other ways to check pistons?

Do you mean "Endoscope" they are fragile and very expensive equipment to have for looking into the engine. I doubt any work shop would buy that unless.... I hear Porche and BMW dealerships have them.

or you can visit to local VET

fuel pump test can be done on a dyno run

yea thats an idea, but don't really wanna get the thing busted while in the process. so might get it pressure tested or somethin instead.

p.s. my car on the dyno, pffft the result will b too embarrasing to bear :bahaha:
