After nearly 2 years off the road!... the money has come together once again and the bits will be ordered from Japan next week or so. Ah the joy!... Hopefully before my birthday in March I'll hear her running again..:zlove: Hopefully catch up with the old boys again.
No the RB26DET list had topped about $25,000 if I remember correctly to get it in, running, modified to my liking... etc. I've gone with a $20,000 VG rebuild instead. Got 1/4 way through it and then nothing happened with it for over a year. I've been saying this 'n' that. RB26. 2JZ. I just want it going already
your just buying parts now :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:.. so another 5 years till completion if you dont change your mind again :bash::bash::bash::bash::bash::
Yeh, well it was to go down in a 4 stage plan. Bottom end, heads/cams, injectors/turbos, ECU/tuning, as a rough guide. Got the bottom end done and it all stopped for a 'while'.... Now its all happening from Tuesday/Wednesday. There isn't one doubt. I'm also ordering everything at once so that would stop me spending my money elsewhere. As long as it's here, its getting done.
Off the top of my head I can't remember everything so I will post it up after the weekend, it's been so long since PZP and I put the list together. something like (give or take) : Bottom End ACL Race Bearings (main) ACL Race Bearings (rods) ACL Hyperlite Forged Pistons Scat H-Beam Connecting Rods Ross Racing Pulley ARP Head & Main Studs Rotating Assy Balance Bore, Hone, Acid Bath, Crack Test, Deck, etc. Bottom End Assembly OEM Oil Pump OEM Oil Strainer Top End Tomei Camshafts & Adjustable pulleys Heavy Duty Valve Springs Head Gaskets Valves Valve Guides Head Porting Head Rebuild Valve Guide Installation & New Valve Seats Miscellaneous 2x Garret GT2871R OR GT2860's OR HKS 2530's (still deciding) 740cc Nismo Injectors Dump Pipes Manifolds Gasket Kit Microtech LT12S with X6 Ignition Module
Sounds like a beast man.... good luck!!! Keep us posted!!! We want piks of parts when they arrive, and progress. Elie
So I finally got around to spraying the engine bay last week. Came out a treat for my first time. Pictures are from my phone so quality = shit.
