Hello!

Was just doing my 100k kms service and saw all this red markings all over all the bolts and some markings on the water pump. Does this indicate that they have been replaced before ? I was pretty positive that my skyline was not 78k kms when i bought it but 178k~kms.

See picture attached !

No markings on the old belt, just lots of tiny cracks and worn out.

But i think this car has had heaps of little bits changed over to make it look like low kms, all the little bits changed over here and there. Hopefully not over 200k kms!

you'll find most nissans have weird paint all over the bolts, stuff knows what it means but apparently on evoX's they have paint over suspension stuff and other bolts but they are marked in suck a way that when you undo the bolt the paint is cracked and the marks dont line up, its so they can void your warranty if its been "toy'd" with

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
