Default Who are Rb26 engine builders in Malaysia?

I would like to ask if anyone knows any good engine builders of Rb26 in Malaysia? Does GT-Auto or Linkpower actually build the engines?
Last time, my GTR was actually built in Thailand by Mr. Toon (through SpeedD/Tony Lim).

I would love to have a highpower, highrevving engine yet fairly reliable (perhaps something similar to that 8500rpm 800+ps Top Secret Rb28 that I posted earlier :heart:).

Saving up for a R32 project now, since my dream to bring back from UK a Lotus Elise with Audi Turbo engine is looking more and more unfeasable :cry_smile: .

Cannot afford to buy laaa. :cry_smile: Top Secret Rb28 cost starts at USD42000. Tomei complete engine starts at RM60,000. All not incl. installation plus ancillaries.
Got one NZ builder, RIPS ltd, selling complete Rb30 4wd 500-900ps also starting at NZD20,000.

Plus, Msian builder, at least got fallback if engine rosak. Overseas, if rosak, have to ship overseas summore :cry_smile:

As i knew, in Malaysia no one rebuilds the engine according to customer's request and customisations.

Probably u can rebuild it in Thailand.

CMNG...I heard tht those complete engine from TOMEI, NISMO and JUN is nt really mean we buy the whole things. Means we have to send existing engine to them n rebuild back only.Otherwise means so costly too for oversea customer.
