HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! OMFG...

 

Leon, seriously, have you bought this?

If so you've bought a Single OHC, RB20e - ie it's a single cam, Non-turbo 2ltr.

If you install this you will actually go SLOWER. Your L26 has moar power...

Man what a score

I cant believe you got it for that price

Seriously If you got the worst of everything rb series and put them together you would end up with an rb20 sohc

Maybe if you can find a carby manifold then you can top of this jewel

is this srtuff all correct?

There were a variety of 2.0 L RB20 engines produced:

 

RB20E - single-cam (96 to 110 kW (130 to 145 ps) @ 5600 rpm, 167 to 181 N·m (17 to 18,5 kgf·m) @ 4400 rpm)

RB20ET - single-cam turbocharged (125 kW (170 PS) @ 6000 rpm, 206 N·m (21.0 kgf·m) @ 3200 rpm)

RB20DE - twin-cam (110 to 114 kW (150 to 155 PS) @ 6400 rpm, 181 to 186 N·m (18.5 to 19 kgf·m) @ 5600 (and later with a NEO-Head 4400 rpm)

RB20DET - twin-cam turbocharged (158 kW (215 PS) @ 6400 rpm, 265 N·m (27.0 kgf·m) @ 3200 rpm)

RB20P - single-cam (94 PS @5600 rpm and 142 N·m @2400 rpm)

RB20DET-R - twin-cam turbocharged (210 ps @6400 rpm and 245 N·m @4800 rpm

I didn't actually know they produced a SOHC RB20...

 

Leon get an RB30ET from a VL turbo if you want a turbo RB motor. You should be able to get 1 complete for a relatively good price if you shop around.

 

I would politely ask the eBay seller if its ok to cancel your bid, apologise and say you were under the impression it was another RB motor.

yes im trying to pull out but it's up to him i offered to pay to have it re-listed and give him a few $ to forget about it but no reply as of yet.....maybe ill learn to look more closely next time.

 

Hopefully he will be ok with that, otherwise that's 1 expensive boat anchor you just bought yourself. :)

hey guys i was lucky this time lol the guy was kool about it. only cost $25 in the end.

 

on another note i had the car fixed (tuned) today it turned out what i thought was a drivline problem was the carbs/spark plugs. the mixture screw was 13 turns to rich the front carb sucked more then the rear and the spark plugs where dirty as becouse of the mixture also got told i should get hotter spark plugs, made a massive differance to everything lol. note to self never let mates tune your car for you

 

and yes i know im a idiot lol
