Hey guy this is my story....
i bought my sx last year september for 32 000, had the car for a month spent abit on the motor to keep her running
Next thing i was messing aroung and my big ends went screwd up the conrod and crank
I took the crank to a specialist he said it fine cut her and gave it back.
During this time i bought a new head forr R2500 new arias pistons, rods and turbo from mr tubo

2000km all bearings went....
took the motor to Power motors they said i need a new crank..
They sleved the motor rebuilt it used arp studs on the mians and head studs

finaly got the car running 2months ago

im having trouble with an oil leak on the return oil feed from the turbo. It seem as though it wont seal properly i am using the original return pipe. Iv tried gaskets gasket makers but it keeps on leaking from there, any advice?

Thats very specific.... 😕

lol, yeah i guess..

the reason im asking is that it always seems to be number 4 big-end that goes first..specially when driven hard.

lots of people around the world have in times past speculated that the ca18det has some sort of lubrication flaw causing this, i myself have twice on my original engine run number 4 big-end..

AAdrian05 Nov 2010, 12:29

hey man no it was no2 big end

3300sx05 Nov 2010, 16:57

ah ok then.. was just wondering 😮

AAdrian07 Nov 2010, 21:21

So i was comming home from the rock and i heard this realy bad noise on my turbro like a grinding sound so this is what i found


on the nut for the impeller

AAdrian07 Nov 2010, 21:25

AAdrian10 Nov 2010, 23:05
