Hey Guys,

I just picked up my block yesterday from machine shop. i asked them to supply me with bearings to suit, when i went down there yesterday he had King Bearings - Precision bearings - i have heard of this brand just not to many people using them..

Should i use the bearings or should i just go back to him and get ACL?

Thoughts?

By the way motor has all bells & whistles etc etc with GT35R

nothing wrong with King bearings, cheap and pleny of people using them. As always it is the maching, measuring and cleanliness that matters.

BTW ACL are in liquidation and are not making new stock - so King are really the remaining choice unless you want to be reamed by Nissan

interesting...I'm willing to bet they don't have many. I just picked up the last set of rb26 ones from my machine shop's supplier. Mains from Adelaide, big ends from maroochydore

i live in tassy and yes unless the administrators turned it around, ACL has been liquidating.

strange thing is i just picked up my forged 30det with a set of acl big end and mains.

i know the the guys at the shop that built my engine and they wouldnt be fibbing to me so i should ask them whos still supplying them with acl bearings.

only thing i can think of is that many companys round australia had a heap in stock so its taking a while for them to disapear

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.

      yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.

      I don't have a printer, but could at least attempt to make a printable model.
