Fully Built RB26DETT Pricing

Post by **ETZ Motors** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

After researching all aftermarket parts for an RB26 I found that I would be spending close to $40,000 for everything, dose this sound correct I want my motor to be bullet proof when I build it. When my Car is done it will be the poster car for my Compnay ETZ Motorsports in NOVA. I woldn't actually spend the ful amount i can get parts on an adverage of 40% off but I would like info on where i canfind cheaper pricing for the parts.

Thanks man i will do that. are there any companies in the us that specialize in RB kits? everything i found is overseas which is understandable but I am sure these Hi-Per shops and Companies that cater to the US know there are RB's rollin in the US.

What power level are you wanting???? The engine is very strong stock, but in higher HP level just like all other race engines thing need changed. In Japan there are 800hp stock block engines..

I want the Car to run 650HP daily with 150 shot nitro. then i want to be able to tune it to 1000HP without worry when i run it on the track. This car is going to be the poster Car for my company (ETZ Motorsports) we are going to specialize in many untouched fields when it come to import tuning but finding parts for an RB is not like finding parts for any of the honda motors.

how much money do you have? that is alot of money to do that, alot of people say that but usally they dont have the money?

Why worry with Japanese parts? I suspect when all is said and done you could have had a custom crank made up...rods wont be all that much, and pistons shouldnt be more than 7 or 800 for some GOOD pistons that will hold up to that much. I wouldnt worry with the japanese parts, they arent blessed by the hand of Jesus or something...you can get custom stuff probably even stronger and not much more expensive/maybe even cheaper.

I am prepared to drop about 15K in the project, and i would like to have the motor blueprinted and balanced and all that. Horse Power is one thing but i want the motor to be as efficient as possible. i will never sell the car so i want it to last a long time. Plus i am coating everthing possible on it to protect the pistions and the turbos. I will get the site with all the stuff they have soon, they have Diff kits and Trans kits you can buy which i would like but that was like 10k I don't think it is worth it.

Hey man, im in NOVA as well. Whats your email, and where are you located?

Post by **McAdam** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

two little known processes. Ceramic Coating and Cryogenic Treating. look into it. theses are untouched feilds for street cars.

if you are looking for effeciency, the ceramics are your best bet. coat the tops of the pistons, combustion chambers and the exhaust port. that will lower you engine temps dramatically. from there you should also coat your exhaust manifolds and th hot side of the turbos.

the cryogenics process just keeps stuff from busting in the first place and makes it last a lot longer. crankshafts, connecting rods, pistons, head, valve springs, hell, they can dip the whole motor! also another worthwhile venture, in my eyes. anyway best of luck to ya!

AND...the cryogenic's isn't a terribly expensive process

but it's supposed to work wonders!

I have been around allot of high HP daily driver GTR's (6yrs in Japan) and I think to achieveyour goal of 1000 HP it will be more than you want to spend. Look at the cost to get the motor set/clip whatever and then the cost for what you need to get it in and running then the tunning, building and parts. I dont think you can make that power level on 15g. But if you do it will be sweet.

Post by **ETZ Motors** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

I know, I Reserched it is was most like $40,000with the trans upgraded and the diff upgradedthis stuff cost lute. I want to focus on my internals first then everything else i can add while the motor is i the car. It will prolly take like three years but i will get to my goal of 1000Hp.

Post by **op.tic** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

a daily diver with that much hp would just be awesome, good lucki knew this girl that was going to get a r34 from japan that was fully upgraded but she was running from the cops and crashed her s2000, shes fine but now has a load of jail time to take care of

Post by **FAST-DATSUN** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

What body are you planing to use???? !000 HP is do able on the street, but not a daily driver.

Post by **93RPS13** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

yo what is this wesite? 15g's that is alot of money you been saving, lol. Thanks

Post by **Redline240** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

Why not do it in stages, set a goal for 700hp but select compoents that will allow 1000hp. That way you can have a 700hp car and save all the money you would spend on internals since the stock ones are good for that much at least. Then you have an impressive ride, and in a few years you'll have enough to open it up and scud proof it! Jumping into a 1000hp build up with very little parts support or tech info isn't a very wise decision IMO. Not like you won't enjoy 700hp, which is possible on your budget...

I want to tune the car to 1000HP for the track, there is no need for that much on the street in an S13. 400hp would kill most cars out here anyway. 650 wit 150 shot would do the trick to smoke dam near anything. I am into all types of cars and I will be taking some cues from some muscle cars but very subtle. Like exhuast exiting in front of both rear wheels and rebuilding the rear end with custom suspension with tubbed out wheel wells. the goal is to put rims similar in width to the Viper to hold all that power.This is a serious project car. i don't want any modified 240 to have anything the same as mine and i don't really want to follow anyone elses setup. The rearend will cost $1200 to rebuild the exterior of the car will appear stock minus the holes for the exhuast and the GForce Body Kit and ofcourse Rims. Like I said earlier in the thread i plan to be building on the car for the next three years or so, and for those who have been wondering how dose he have money for this I have a Network company (E~Storm Communications) in Northern Virginia if you need any Computer info i would glad to help.I know what i want to do to the car all I need is some leads to pricing. I will continue to look for the best prices and when i find them i will post where we all can find them. The purpose of this is the help eachother right?!!!One Big nissan Family right?

Thanks redline that would be the best way to go.

"I wouldnt worry with the japanese parts, they arent blessed by the hand of Jesus or something"

This is the greatest quote ever. I'm not trying to hijack the thread or anything, but who makes some good quality internals for RB's here in the states (the east coast preferably)?

Post by **FAST-DATSUN** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

Lot of part made in the US are comming out Several companies have piston and rods are in work, we have valves. and springs out to get them made. As the market expandes more parts will be there, but never on the Honda scale...

IMO thats a good thing!

Post by **Nathan** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

Heck, there are even places that can make you a custom crankshaft...cant be much more expensive than a japanese one and just as strong if you get the right thing.

Post by **FAST-DATSUN** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

AGREED but the price are more if the maker's sell less!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by **Silva Sleeper** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

500hp in a s13 or even s14 body is alot. I know power to weight is emphasized alot but you must realize that you still have to get the power to the ground. thats the harder part because ou will have wheel spin. guys from Skylines Austrailia forum members. meggala, and a few others will tell you to that even the GTS-t skylines with the rb26 in just stock trim has power problems of getting it to the ground. like my former Bucik Grand National put down nearly 700hp after it was well tuned and on fair weather it would run in the 10s.but even with all the coil over suspension work and sticky meats, i still had tration probs. just something to consider.

will you ever get that high of HP, really?

Post by **Silva Sleeper** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

That is why I am tubbing the wheel wells out, If you read the middle of the thread you will see the I had it priced for 1200 dollars. I am going to put the width of a viper rim in the reargoing under the car so that is will look stock from the side.

Post by **Silva Sleeper** » Mon Jun 16, 2003 1:09 pm

I will see you on the track and you tell me if it is grabbing or not. I think That anything is possible when you invest in it.
