Im looking to start a group buy for genuine RB25DET Idler Assembly replacement bearings.

After recently doing my own 100k service I was quoted $350 for the timing belt idler bearing and another $130 for the timing tensioner pulley bearing from Nissan.

I was also quoted $225 for the timing belt idler bearing and $95 for the tensioner pulley bearing from Just Jap.

I have managed to get hold of a supplier who is happy to do a group for $240 delivered on both the Idler and Tensioner bearings (Genuine Nissan Replacement parts)

Both of these a requirement when doing the 100k service when changing the timing belt, and is also a good idea when rebuilding your motor for peace of mind.

Looking for around 10 buyers to achieve this price.

Closing Date: 20/1/05

PM me for any further questions or details.

from memory i think you can get nsk bearings for about the same price or cheaper.

Tensioner NSK 60TB0683 EA7L 806

Idler NSK 56TB2801B01 ENSL 309

not geniune but still does the same job. anybody have any idea if the nsk's perform better?? i might be interested.

Yes they do come with the sleeve etc.

I started a thread in the maintenance section yonks ago when I did the idler/tensioner over a year ago.

The thread was titled fiddly stuff and if you do a search you will find the right part numbers in the thread.

They are cheaper than the genuine ones and I can't see any reason why they wouldn't last as long.

One guy got them cheaper than I could but he was in sydney.

From memory it was about 60 for the idler and 105 for the tensioner.

I've used NSK in all my vehicles and never had any troubles - they are good bearings.

Cheers

So these are the complete tensioner and idler assemblies to suit an RB25DET?

Found out today, CBC do a timing belt kit for RB25DET's, includes timing belt, tensioner and idler pulleys, cam shaft and crankshaft seals, for about $350.

thats not a bad deal. what kind of bearings do they supply in the kit?? genuine?

I'm pretty sure they are NSK bearings, which would be as good as genuine.

I wouldn't be surprised if the genuine ones are NSK.

I talked to Bearing Traders in Mayfield Newcastle, and they can get the bearings at a rediculously cheap price, i couldn't believe it.

Tensioner NSK 60TB0683 EA7L 806 $29.63

Idler NSK 56TB2801B01 ENSL 309 $49.76

Nice work :P I got a 100k service coming up and live in newcastle so this should help save me some money.

I only got my car a couple of months ago (98000km), and when I got it I knew it needed the timing belt done... but I didn't know anything about bearings.

I had it done at Caringbah Automotive Repairs & Service in Taren Point. The invoice I got says "T1040 Timing belt" but nothing about bearings. So after reading this thread I'm thinking it should have been done, and if so is the mechanic to blame for not knowing to do it?

I've just done over 100000km so I guess I should get it sorted. Wonder what other surprises are waiting to empty my wallet... :P

It depends who you talk too, I've heard SK say that it is not required to change the pulleys when you change the timing belt, but i'm quite sure it is recommended to be done with the 100000k service.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
