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.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.

    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
