I like this thread. I want that manifold.

What is the RB26 out of? Sorry if you already mentioned. Since the motor is out, I recommend changing out the oil pump. If you don't feel like dishing out the money for a Tomei unit or something, find an N1 oil pump.

Thanks everyone.

The engine came from a supplier in Canada, and as far as I know was from an R32 Skyline. I will go into greater detail about the engine later in the thread, but it is fully built and yes the oil pump has been replaced with a JUN unit. Like you said the oil pump is a great weakness in the RB26, and is the root of failure in many engines. Aside from the pump, the crank collar that drives the oil pump should be upgraded to an extended version to allow more contact with the oil pump gear.

Nice work mate. I'm going the other route. Taking out my RB and fitting an VQ in an S13.

Beautiful the ex manifold, true split pulse design.

Thanks man, Full-Race has truly broken the mold with this manifold. The VQ is going to be great in your S13, and definitely a candidate for a nice road race car. Light motor, Light car, Torque, and 6 speed gearbox, great combination! Good luck with the build

Cheers
