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..

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.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
