thats what happens when you dont know what ya doing :)

you have to GRADULY wind down the bearing caps conmcentrating on the loaded areas. (lobes opening valves)

it should take about 10 mins max to do each one properly

10min each sounds about right for torquing them down.

The nissan sequence if the cams are correctly positioned , does just that as you are saying. I think you are quite right as when you see it all before the cams go in it just makes sense to do it that way. If you have the right kind of training and experience in engine building you can work it out without knowing the nissan manual sequence as long as you know the torque target on the bolts .

I didn't break mine, and I'm pretty sure I never would with a good set of new bolts. Re-used old ones is where you are gambling. If they are known to break it means they are really past it after 100,000kms or so. I managed to break an old one I tried to re-use and I have heard of others breaking some time after being re-installed, lesson learnt no harm no foul.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.

      Cas issue

      It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
