Sorry to hear man but I am sure you will make her better than before.

We'd love to chat with you more about this and see what your plans are and go over compatibility of parts, recommendations, and information we might have. Please shoot me an email: markd@stillen.com Thanks!

Sad to hear ! IT is, But make me wonder a little about their kit now 2 car (3 if you count mine) That has gone bye, bye, with very little mileage on them. I know you cant wait for spring already!! ;)

Hey ANMVQ

Thanks man :tup::tup:

I had a lot of fun with the "Z" and 3 1/2 years since installed the Kit

Greetings
Ivo

BTW: I know four people who had an engine failure here in Europe.
With a few miles.
Without more power! (Stock) :mad:

Hi guys

Time for an update! :stirthepot:

I just got the analysis.
The 2 cylinder has no compression and a blow-by. :icon14:

It's time (after 3 1/2 years) for a general revision of the engine!

Either a gentle Revision (only Cylinder 2)
or an extreme :tup:

My desire tends to extremes.
As written in post 1, I would go to a stroker kit.

Sorry to hear brother. My previous motor suffered the same from Cyl 2 also. Lot's had to do with tuner. I still have that motor set aside and I am very interested to rebuild or at least tear it down to see what else could be wrong.

GL to you man, It would be awesome to see this build go further.

I would suggest getting another tuner for your next engine.

Well that sux :/ Mine was cyl 3 but completely shattered the rod.

On the engine front this is what I've been looking at for a block, He s a vendor on here :)

WOW! Great price for those short blocks ^^^

I turned to a Nissan specialist!

QAS from Germany :tup::tup::tup::tup:

For a second there I thought Ikea made a compression tester. Sucks to hear hope whatever route you go you get it together in a timely manner, If you do the brian crower kit make sure the shop that does it has done one before, there are multiple instalation issues with that stroker kit that must be adressed during instal. To many times I have heard of shops putting one together and missing some small part of the install. Even heard it a couple times where they didn't clearance the crank-case and the motor couldn't turn over.

I would steer clear from the BC stroker cranks. From what I have been told they very from unit to unit as BC has several different facilities making them for them. To give you and example if you had 5 cars: each car would have a different variation of the same crank... This may put you in a bad spot and future failure. I would stay stock stroke.

I say this next part with great caution: ( I know Im going to get flammed)
GTM does have a several billet cranks on the shelf... I saw them last weekend. They are full billet and 100x's better Quality than the BC. They had the two at the shop and the BC looks like a stock cast...

Good luck with the build!

Thanks Guys

For enlightenment! :tup:
We will look at the next few weeks/months, what we build!
I've been thinking, which is not optimal, the BC kit !?
GTM Stroker -Kit.....??????

For more suggestions or ideas I'm open.

Thanks for the advice

Ivo

GTM is very risky these days. I wouldn't give them a dime.
