Well, I'm a little short on money at the moment and so I have decided to buy a used RB26DETT instead of rebuild mine. Its done the bigend bearings and maybe also the piston rings.

I've bought another long motor and so I'll need the turbos and plenum from this one. I would prefer to sell it complete but will separate if I don't get enough interest. No idea what it would be worth and want to sell ASAP so open to offers..

PRICE DROP $2500 for the lot.

Can supply plenum, throttle bodies and coil packs for extra $900

This motor came out of a 1997 R33 GTR V-Spec.

Feel free to call me on 0407 931 097.

Engine has now been SOLD!!!!

The sump is off, that's how we checked the bearings and I took the head off with the intention of getting it ported. I can put things back together if you like or leave them off for you to inspect.

    • So, good news and bad news Bad news first: The intake plenum is lost in the mail apparently, I haven't paid for it yet, and MX5 Mania are still chasing it up, farking 'Merica postal service  Good news: Any retune will be free if and when it turns up,  I'm still keen for them to throw it on The car goes noticeably better, with only the typical initial take off thingie from a choppy cam and manual transmission, but giving it just a little more RPM than before gives it a smooth take off (and hour or so of peak hour traffic sorted that little skill out) Car made around 145kwatw & 225Nm (Intake may get me to 150kw, maybe....🤣) Weirdly, 145kwatw is the same max power that my standard 2015 WRX STI made a few years ago The cam really comes alive from around 3.5k and keeps making power and holds it flatish all the way to 7k, whereas before torque would drop hard around at 4.5k Drive home was sadly in peak hour, although I did get a little clean air here and there to wind out 1st and 2nd a little bit, and whilst the gains aren't anything for the "boosted boys" to be impressed at, the thing is a blast to drive The sound in the vid is poor, as it is in a undercover yard at work, but, outside, in the wild, it sounds awesomeballs to my ears with all the choppyness I consider it money very well spent for the outcome  Cam specs for reference (Basically the biggest you can fit with stock pistons) 20250417_171807.mp4   LOL, I don't think I will ever grow up  
    • Swap the injectors around and see what happens. If the misfire follows the injectors then that's a signal, if it doesn't it's probably not the injectors.
    • R33 with RB26 seems to go off of learned voltage for idle. Seemed like whatever the baseline voltage was once ECU first gains power will be the idle voltage. With ignition on unplug/replugging the TPS would relearn the idle TPS voltage.
    • Have you confirmed the 2 pin coolant temp sensor on the motor is working properly? I've had a very similar issue when I forgot to plug mine back in many years ago.
    • Ok interesting i guess ill wait till using a manual gauge before making assumptions.
