Edited by Weezy

also have the thought that it was done when engine was cold so pistons and stuff still needed to expand etc..

specs:

Fully balanced

Arp main studs

Arp head studs

Acl bearings

Acl 1.2mm head gasket

Ross/acl pistons

Argo rods

Adj cam gears

Gates timing belt

Has a rb20 exhaust cam on the intake to take the vct off

Was built with all new Nissan bolts, gaskets, seals

Once you have different cams and or adjustable gears, comparing compression results to factory will tell you nothing. This is also the same if you fit a different H/Gasket and the pistons will probably be slightly different compression to the factory ones as well. The difference between the cylinders is what you have to look at but a leak down test is what you really need.

You wouldn't want the difference between cylinders to be more than 10 psi but that's probably not to bad for a cold test.

Brass balls for the bloke. I was at eagle on the hill one day back in 2009 and there was a bunch of hecktik biker boys in full leather on their GSXR's etc racing up and down, in 45 degree heat :\ Crazy kents!

I found out what that grinding noise was, in my drivers side wheel arch. The retaining pin for the hand brake shoe had popped off, and got stuck in the drum, where it started to get ground down. Now to source a pin, and spring.

EDIT: about $5 for a pin and spring from Grand Nissan, so I have ordered 4, may as well replace them all while I am at it, should be here tomorrow or the day after from Melbourne.

    • Or the brand new throwout may be unhappy...
    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
