Should I Do The Bearings While I Have The Engine Out

[BOOZTJUNKEY]

I have been busy the last week

Got the engine out

Fitted new turbo plenum an injectors striped the block yada yada yada

Now while it's on th stand I thought it might be an idea to the do the bearings seen as how Im gunna squeeze More power out of it ?

What do u think. ?

Over kill ?

Is there anything else u guys would recommend while the engines out I have missed ?

[DVS JEZ]

Be a good idea for the sake of a few hundred

How many km? Why not do rings and bearings while its out?

[BOOZTJUNKEY]

Yeah that's what I thought its got 120k on it I got it at 68k and it was bog stock but who knows if the ks are correct I am suspect on all imports in regards to klms they have hahahah

The engine has been awesome never let me down

But I figure if I just did the bearings( and rings which was a good idea kiwi rs4t)

I shouldn't have to worry too much Hopefully

Any ideas where to go for good prices on oem parts?

Nissan will charge through the ass ;-)

i got mine at repco, no more expensive than run of the mill bearings, remember to give the bores a light hone before you install the rings , thats provided you can reuse the std pistons again

[BOOZTJUNKEY]

Yeah I was thinking repco or bursons .

I'd say pistons should be fine it's hasn't had too hard of a life I will know for sure when I pull them I suppose hahaha

Thanks for the help everyone

How many engines have you built before and what measuring equipment do you own?

Not saying don't try it, just make sure you accept the consequences if it turns pear shaped. We see 600hp at the wheels on standard engines all the time reliably. Nissan did a pretty good job of it. It's the aussie tuners that f**k it up

[BOOZTJUNKEY]

Hahaha fair enough elite it's not gunna be a full build just rings and bearings

Engines I've built are erilivent ATM

A mate own a performance shop and said if I go throw with it he will supply the parts and over see what I do just to be safe :-)

Thanks for the advice mate
