GT-R turbos on the VQ37

phunk

In the Z you need to remove the engine to remove the upper oil pan. This would get you access to the rod bearing. If you needed to do the main bearings too the bedplate will have to come off and thats essentially a full tear down except you can leave the heads on.

I suppose you could also drop the crossmember to get the upper pan off but that is a nightmare. I did that with my DE once to change the rear seal housing and it was torture being under there with the engine dripping oil on me the entire time.

I've lifted a couple of V8's up with hoist. Dropped the pan to change the bearings. Yeah, forgot how the bottom of the Z motor is. Not enough room, even with the motor lifted.
