Would you believe taking off from the lights & getting to 2nd gear changing before turbo spools up at about 2500rpm and about to get to 3rd and rattle rattle ,loss of oil pressure ,switch off and pull over. I was driving like a granny trying to save some fuel. Now if i was hammering it i could wear it butttt..

Were the Tensioner and Idler pulleys changed along with the timing belt?

Sounds like this has not occured as part of a 100k service or something (and needs to happen to avoid this exact issue)

R31Nismoid,

yeah ,

when I had the timing belt done , all pulleys & water pump were replaced...

as regards to rebuild time , boy would i love too but cash is short so i have 2 choices of either getter a 2nd hand long motor and then (replace belt,pulleys,water pump)

or getting a 2nd hand long motor which have been honed & re-ringed and then (replace belt,pulleys,water pump)

The 2nd optioned has been proposed/advised by my mechanic who said its a better start again knowing the state of the motor over just replacing a motor....(makes sense I guess)

I am not after a huge power build..was actually wanting to get to 253-250 rwkws originally

I have 2 motors here, one has a rattle in the bottom end but good head (has had the head removed) and the other was just a good bottom end, was going to bolt the 2 together and make one good one for now and build a big banger later, have since pulled the car off the road and going straight to an rb26/30, they are S1 no idea what the internal differences are, as far as i know its only coils and afm that are different, if you interested send me a pm.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
