I'm rebuilding a VQ25det at the moment, it seems Nissan cant sell me any big end rod bearings... Wat?

I wonder if VQ35 ones will fit, anyone know a way to find out? I guess I will have to measure the stock rods and compare them somehow...

I didn't do anything....

But Scotty saved me by sourcing and fitting a new rad this afternoon, after mine decided it no longer wanted to keep the water on the inside... Bleeding the cooling system is a biatch...

Good to finally meet Aaron as well after all these years..

Thanks again mate!!! :cheers:

the bearing grades will be very minor differences in clearance...probably 1/10th of 20thou. If you are not buying nissan they will only have one grade. If you are buying nissan you could carefully measure everything....or just pick the middle grade and go with that

How did it go on the way home Nick? I should have sold you that spare coolant mod, it would have been quicker to fit that than bleed your engine...

Ran like a dream thanks Scott. Temp gauge sat where it is supposed to the whole way home. Also drove across all possible bumps to give it all a good shake for bubble movements..

Swapped out the battery, and as expected the little window was showing bright red... New battery has restored normal starting..

Ha good to finally meet you too mate! Glad Scott got it all sorted!

Just fitted the HKS sensors for the F-con. Nissan was nice enough to leave me a decent spot to drill and tap the IAT sensor into the pipe the BOV mounts to, and two holes blanked off that I can mount the MAP sensor to. Just need to plumb the MAP sensor in now, thinking directly to the plenum rather than try and tap another thing in where the factory sensors are.

Also dropped the oil, replaced with fresh 300V and a Greddy filter. Guess I've got one more fill with 300V, 1L left over :/

Best measure of intake pressure is in the end of the plenum. Same place Nissan put the barb for the OEM sensor.

Right I'm with you now, the tiny hose on the end. Although there's also a factory sensor in the BOV pipe too.

Went on a little cruise with the v35/36 club of WA.. theyve adopted m35's into the club as theres not many in the scene. Met my first m35 other than mine today as NickM91 came along for the cruise .. had a great time and shared lots of info.. :cheers:

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
