rbjet Skid Machine Donating Members 1,640 Member For: 13y 11m 21d Gender: Male Posted 20/03/12 01:26 AM Share Posted 20/03/12 01:26 AM Anyone ever had an RB26 rebuilt in Melbourne. I know a few places that will do the rebuild but the labor of taking the motor in and out is the hard part. I don't want to touch the bloody thing again and just wondering if anyone knew of any mechanics in Melbourne that were familiar with GT-R's?Also after a half decent price too.

All it needs is a new block and bearings hopefully which I can supply anyway.I might give Sabbadin motors a ago but they're miles away.

Not too many places want to have to do the pulling out of the motor and putting it back in.

But it's not a simple or cheap project. f*ck it would be responsive though. I'd be on full boost at 2000rpm lol.
