Probably a stupid question with a more then obvious answer here. But is there a difference between the R32-33 poncams to the R34 ones? The reason I ask is I had to re-order my parts again (parts were stolen from the workshop) and have only just realised that I have ordered the R34 poncams 260/256 9.15mm, instead of the 32/33. Can i fit them or no?

i would get the right one if i were you ,save your self alot of head aches, the cas pick up drive are totally different and unless you want to buy a r34 cas($$$) the exhaust cam won't be of much use to you. If the order is beyond return just less the cams on the forum as they are a very sellable item and order r32/r32 units that will bolt straight in.

And with the Yen the way it is now, buy them asap :P

Just to go off topic a little, but is it my imagination or do the prices on some of the popular sites -- e.g. Nengun -- stay relatively stable regardless of currency fluctuations? I mean I've been watching some of the parts prices and despite the high exchange rate they don't seem to have shifted...

Edit: Sorry, that sounds like a complaint: its not meant to be :) Just an observation. I assume they build in a couple of Yen safety margin.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Lithium · Posted

      Whoa, that's a name I've not see for a long time! Sorry to hear about the engine / turbo damage.  Fwiw with any engine problems it often really a case of just seeing what happens when it's apart, ymmv - I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the damage isn't even from the turbo failure, or possibly from a combination.  The airflow between cylinders isn't dead even, injectors can go off over time as well, with the turbos overboosting if you didn't have upgraded fuel system there could have possibly been a bit of leaning out - stock triggering is often a bit unreliable by this age too.  Basically its an old engine and a few things could have been going on, and you won't know how much work is needed until the engine is apart.

      I'm just shocked there's a euro driver on our roads who is thinking of other road users and not attempting to blind everyone. I wonder if Prank uses his indicator too...

      So whats the deal with the porous block VR30DDTT

      By Duncan · Posted

      Its hard to tell really. The Q50 owner's forum talks about it a lot and has quite a few people directly affected, but no idea what % of cars sold actually had the block replaced. Also, there seem to be 2 distinct issues which both get diagnosed by Infiniti as requiring a block replacement (no wonder they are going broke) 1. "Porous block" where coolant mixes with oil through thin or poorly cast parts of the block 2. Head coolant gallery plugs not sealing. If I was noticing engine coolant loss I'd start with cooling system pressure test (as always) and then I'd pull the cam covers and reseal the coolant gallery plugs on both side before worrying about a potentially porous block.  If neither of those did the trick it would be put in a second hand engine out of japan; I haven't checked pricing but I'm sure there are plenty around by now as they've been in production 10+ years

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      To clarify what I posted above, I thought you both had a situation where it cancelled sooner one way than the other.....if it is reasonably even where it cancels in either direction that is probably normal (consider gentle movements like lane changes, you don't want it to need half a turn of lock to turn the indicators off)
