This is a Z forum, not an S chassis forum...unless you're planning on swapping an SR into your Z, what's the point of this useless thread? Take it to off topic if anything

Bro the SR came stock in the 2008 370z. This is completely relevant.

Probably the gasket head manifold filter oil that was a known issue in the original 240.

LOL, Ah that was the HR V6 engine. The SR20DE came in the older 240sx's.

Anybody know what all was done to the Maxima, i was always curious about that car, at the time I had a '91 SE with the VG30de motor that used to eat hondas up.

Yes, that was the first Nissan V6 engine with Variable intake timing and 4 cams. I use to rebuild the VTC's a good bit. The SE Maxima with the 3.0 liter VG30DE and a 5 speed manual was an awesome car. It was a sleeper for sure. That engine was the start of the engine we have today.

I wish I would have had someone knowledgable help me with the intermittent valve clatter that plagued the car for years...it was loud and totally random.

LOL, that was due to the VTC's. The springs would get weak and clatter like hell when they were first started up. I have seen several that were rebuilt incorrectly. The tensioners and chain guides could of had issues also. The engine had 3 different chains and tensioners on it. It was about a 12hr job to go through the chain set and VTC's. The job had to be perfect the first time.
