ok i found this on craiglist and trying to determine if this is a rev-up motor, HR or what. Long story short my piston rings are gone and looking for a vq to drop in for now so i can build a motor up If anyone has any idea i would appreciate it

-craiglist:Got an 06 VQ, it is the HR version, with the total 300hp, It has the automatic front timing cover, it has 16000 miles on it, and came out of a rear ended Z.If your putting it in a Standard Z, or using a standards harness you will need to swap the timing cover. The rest of the engine is the same. All I took and sold were the accessories. Ive snaked the internals, and rotated the crank, nothing wrong with it. Otherwise was going to be a back up, Ill be moving soon and cant take it with me.

 

06 = not hr
06 automatic = non revup
06 6mt = rev up

300hp = revup

automatic front timing cover??? no clue what he means.

Get pics of the front cover and we can tell you what motor it is.

 

i seen the front cover and looks like the DE

 

are you able to pull the block number and tell what motor it is?

 

06 auto so its a reg de.

 

non-rev DE

 

thanks for the help guys figured it was the de non rev but just want to make sure before I buy it from the guy

 

Doesn't sound like that person knows what the fish they're talking about. I wouldn't buy it period.

 

I was thinking the same thing too with 16000 miles I would atleast know what z it came out of and etc it's making me wonder if the motor is messed up he asking $700obo

 

I'd steer clear.....just me though.

 

just drop a k20 in it and for sure you'll be doing 11's all day long

 

dont buy it....you'll get

 

plus hes supposedly moving so by the time you figure out its screwed you'll totally be screwed. check classifieds theres always reputable guys selling long blocks
