adz_sportif_turbo Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 1 thing i would do is the cam spray bars. £50 odd from Nissan, and a common problem with blockages that then cause the top end to seize Apart from that, good luck mate. Awesome cars yep,,,i hav aided in 3 engine changes which stemmed from this, one of them we just got mapped at 407 bhp good engines loads of potential. my mate has a fully forged engine with headwork if your interested. also listen out for vvt rattle on inlet cam,,,bloody nuisance i tell thee Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Maz90 Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 Awesome Times!!! Welcome to the skint side!!! Keep an eye on the scottish section of the SXOC. We have meets at Grangemouth pretty often. Also, future crail days will be posted in there.Depending on how compitant you are, you can clean the spray bars. We done it with mine last year.Will do mate cheers.I will be painting my rocker cover soon so will look then.Is it just a case of removing them and having a look inside to see if there gunked up ? Also whats the best way to clean them ? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
