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

      Rv37 400r questions

      By elir32 · Posted

      Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance

      Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened.

      R34 GTT Battery Relocation To Trunk

      By NZ-GTT · Posted

      I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
