Baffled Sump by the look of it? I always liked the prospect of the HOR extended sump but I read its a pain in the ass and can only be fitted with the engine out. Lucky you're already there ;)

Baffled but not gated, feeling a bit poor haha.. Yeah you "could" do it motor in but at that rate you might as well take the motor out.

Some progress tonight, I removed the crank. Some scoring on the bearings so might change all of them too :(

I was hoping on the conrod bearings needed changing but YOLO right? I still want to retain the standard NEO rods and NEO pistons because they said not to let the Nissan out *ahem* @GTSBoy, @Piggaz. Nissan hasn't been let out lol.

Oh hai! Looks the goods, sump was modified to suit the AWD motor going RED as the pick up sits more forward. Test fitting was spot on, I like very much - great success.

Off to the machinist it goes, the silly crank.

Nissan is well and truly out now brah. You've contaminated it with Sydney air. Should be alright though. #RBLIFE4EVA

Still stock!!!

Crank at shop, but their machinist has buggered off overseas for 4x weeks!

Thinking if I should do connecting rod bolts too lol.

Still stock motor :)

Are stock bolts capable of 400rwkw? 

If no, then replace. 

Given the driving style I'd worry more about balance/harmonics/oil pump strength etc. 

Unless the rod bolts are a known weak point? 

Got a good balancer for it?

derno, Matt Wooten & TIm Burt don't seem to have issues with stock oil pump, stock rod/bolts

Soooooo why did you pull it apart if these guys have been trucking along for years with the stock setup?

just to install the Spool oil pump gears and to install a new head gasket - that was it :)

May have gotten a tiny bit carried away with the headwork but that's just it.. everything else is just pretty stock

Actually had free time for a change, which I rarely do.. so decided to do some work on the siet bok rust bucket.

I always has an issue where the camber kept changing every track day and I had a feeling the OEM camber bolts were moving so I decided to deleted the bastard with this GKtech camber lock out kit. 

On removing the OEM camber bolts it was evident the machined groove and offset washer weren't working correctly, most likely slipping when I'm smashing into ripple strips. 

Man 60% of yhe arms are Hardrace lol.. bastard should sponsor me!

Yeah cnuts! 

Removing those stupid machined screws are not fun, used those impact/hammer screw drivers and a bit of heat. I bashed the shit out of the pump like Pacquiao vs Horn and eventually all of them came out.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
