well crank is back in... got my rods resized with ARP bolts and they go back in today... it should all be back together this weekend. with the crank i had it in and out no less then 15 times measuring and checking bearing clearances... we then had to do some work to make sure they were all spot on. time consuming stuff.

update!!

motor re assembled by myself.. bearing clearances checked. everything all good. and motor back in the car. started it up tonight after priming it up for oil pressure and it fired first go and sounded great! got it up to temp and it seems to have slightly more oil pressure then before and rev's and idles smoother then ever.

skid performed :P

some updates... been busy last few weeks working on my trailer doing brake upgrade, new hubs, GTST rims, new tyres, and a few other things. oh and new 4meter long ramps :D

in between i have been doing a few things here and there to my car. some pics here

10W super bright LED's with a 45degree spread. got these for the trailer which i will mount on my new nose cone facing backwards... it really is a PAIN in the arse loading and unloading at night so these will help a bit!

mounted a sheet of alloy for an understray cooling panel. simple yet effective.

my new ramps.. they are 4 meter scaffolding planks. they require a support in the middle to stop the sagging but they work a treat.

    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
