I'm changing the VSS with the heads on and GA317 tool. I've aligned everything at Top Dead Center but wondering if the timing belt needs to be taken off before the cams come out. Also how will I position each cylinder to TDC while turning the crankshaft if the timing belt is off? Done a lot of...

About 6 months ago when I started my engine swap endeavor, I replaced the timing belt, with a gates kit, while the motor was out. I followed all the guides and my rear bank cams always seemed to be half a tooth off. I assumed when the car ran it would stretch enough to fix it. Fast forward to...

I am wanting to sell my 92 VR4 since the timing belt has broken. I've not done any digging to see how things look internally and don't plan on doing so. I would rather get rid of the car at this point. It was running great up until the belt broke driving through town. There was a check engine...

Hi there, new member but a long time fan of these cars. Looking at a 3000gt in the uk here for purchase at the moment. What are some things that would make you steer clear? Its at 118k and no history, im imagining it will need the timing belt done right from buying it since its probably at the 4...

I had an issue with poor idle and acceleration on my 91 DOHC non-turbo, so after doing several things with the fuel system I finally checked the base timing and it was retarded well AFTDC (my guess is about 15 degrees). I set it to 5 degrees BTDC and things seemed to work well for a very short...

Hey, so I was on the final steps of changing my timing belt, everything was perfectly in time as far as I can see, I had the tensioner tightened up correctly to where the pin could slide in and out and the belt was tight with barely a few mm of play all around. With that, I then went to do the...

Hey everybody.. I am going to do a timing belt change on my 1993 3000gt vr4 #2 sometime in my near future. I have slowly been biding my time and trying to collect each proper/oem part that I can in order to be successful with my very first timing belt change. I would really appreciate it if...

Ok so let me be as descript but to the point as possible on this. 3000GT NA 1996 Changed my valve cover seals. Had to adjust them because initially they were over tightened a tad and leaked some oil into the spark plug wells. Assumed that was why she was running like crap. She was puffing...

I replace a lot of parts on this engine it was used one of those parts are the camshaft seals, I ordered them On rock auto they were a brand called API (they were cheap) after replacing them I followed all the instructions per workshop after driving the car for a little bit at high revs I turn...

I broke my harmonic balancer on a 98 sl. Since I was halfway there, I decided to change the timing belt also. My question is that if there are no leaks or problems apparent with the water pump, should I change it? The pulleys look good and I am changing the tensioner. Also changing idler and...
