works spec raid engine
guys im after some info about an engine that ive aquired before i sell it on. i beleive it is a full works spec nissan rally raid engine, based on the vq engine. it has ported/polished lower inlet and head. carbon airbox, dry sump kit, injector loom, blah blah blah. basically its a bare engine with the airbox and dry sump kit fitted no other ancilleries. the only info i can find is from the legendry google but this aint really much use. i have absolutley no use for this engine and as a fellow vehical enthusiast and active member of other car forums i thought id see what info you guys can throw up before i offer it for sale, i dont want to ebay it as it would probably go to some idiot instead of someone who will appreciate it. i beleive this engine specs are 200kw @ 5000rpm and 360mn @4000 rpm, v6 deisel, quad cam. 4 valve per cylinder. basically the same as the vq engine but works spec internals. possibly pistons/rods/cams. you get the general idea. i no nothing about 4x4's or nissans but dont want to waste oppotunity for some one out there to mis out on what is certainly a very rare bit of kit. this is info ive pulled from rally raid team specs, but dont think it does the engine justice. if its suitable for nissan to rag across hundrds of miles of desert then im sure it will be suitable for an off road fan to punt about the local course and a great talking point at thenext meeting:
how do i identify the engine (engine codes/part numbers blah blah blah) what vehicals it would fit. and what is its general worth as a unit. if i cant sell this as a single unit i may be tempted to sell the bits seperatly after a little research and checking prices. if anyone is willing to take this engine as is with the info ive provided then email me and we'll talk details or if i can figure out ists true value as a whole and in parts then i'll break it. like i said i dont have any use for this engine and i dont even want it in my garage so someome is going to get a works spec engine at a non works spec price. will it be you. admin please do not delete this post. it is essentially just an info gathering excersize to establish the units full potential and value prioir to offering it for sale either to club members or privately. many thanks for looking. and thanks in advance for any info given gavin |
