Hey All,

Just a quick quest' not sure if it should be in this thread?,

Where do you get your wheel bearings from, had one colapse on me today front drivers (well thats what it sounds like) , might aswell replace both, do you get em from autobarn? or a bearing shop?, do they even have these on the shelf here?, they should as most cars use the same type and size.

Thnx

Two of my wheel bearings started to squeal about 3 weeks ago(front left and rear right)

Bought a whole set off a guy here on the forums.He works for CBC bearings.The bearings i received are top quality.

PM me for info.

cbc bearings? never heard of it. Mwade in which country? anddd howww much?

The bearings i received are made in Japan.CBC supply all the manufactures bearing type products.They also sell Gates products,the timing belt which is in my car now was also from CBC.

I got a mates rate price for the bearings which came to $220 from memory.

Sounds like a good price, as I have seen em for $120 ea on the front, waitin back for some more quotes.

Did you use an bearing puller for the back ones?, or the old grind and hax trix?.

Just a quick heads up, may not apply in this case but you never know over the net. A lot of times people with skylines think they have a stuffed wheel bearing it turns out to be something else (like warped rotors). If you've seen Skyline wheel bearings out of the car you will understand, they are well over engineered.

I've had stuffed wheel bearings in previous cars and I was positive that's what was wrong with my line but I was wrong.

    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
    • lights are on just the one click.  
    • Absolutely matters because, while a temperature change will eventually reach a sensor at the end of a static line, the response time is far far far too slow to be useful. Might as well not have a temp gauge at all.
    • When I was eyeing off the 370GT (after deciding I didn't want to spend 30-40k+ to relive my early 20s in an R33) I thought it'd be a good project to add a turbo to it. Now that I have a 370GT, and I've had a couple of chances to open it up, I'm pretty stunned by how much power it makes 🫠 Honestly, the way the VVEL opens it up, it almost feels like there's a little turbo tucked away in there somewhere. It's like Nissan looked at VTEC and said "hold my beer" 😁 Has anyone thrown a turbo into their 370Z or 370GT? Is there a conservative boost level you can run without having to upgrade the fuel system, or are bigger injectors and a bigger pump a given?
