Details & Inspection Notes
This is a used JDM Nissan RB26 engine pulled from a Japanese-market R33 Skyline GT-R, paired with its original 5-speed AWD transmission and showing roughly 41,396 miles, built around the twin-turbocharged, cast-iron, inline-6 layout that powered three generations of Skyline GT-R.
What makes this engine distinct
This unit has been built up rather than left stock: it carries an N1 connecting rod kit balanced with the crank, Nismo main and rod bearings, a ported and polished head, a Tomei metal head gasket, Tomei forged pistons and camshafts, a Tomei valve spring kit, an N1 oil pump and a large-capacity oil pan, a different spec than a factory-stock RB26.
What's included
Also included are the RHD wiring harness, the intake manifold and injectors, the twin turbochargers themselves, the valve cover, the alternator and power steering pump, the throttle body, and the AC pump pictured with this unit, on top of the 5-speed AWD transmission.
Who it suits
Because of the built internals, this engine suits a buyer planning a big-power build who wants the reliability margin of forged rotating parts and upgraded bearings over a stock RB26, rather than a restoration where factory-spec internals matter more than ultimate output.
Common questions
Is this a stock RB26 or a built one? Built, with forged internals and an N1 rod kit rather than factory-stock components.
Does it include the transmission? Yes, the original 5-speed AWD transmission is included.
