Hope everyone is well, I know I'm not about much at the moment but I'm still helping out a few members where I can and I happen to have this so ......

 

 

Just a quick feeler thread before I strip this down, I have a 350z VQ35DE engine with what is expected to be a blown bottom end :scare:

 

The mechanic that removed it said it sounds like bottom end has COMPLETELY gone!

 

Before I strip it and get the nice (read still serviceable) bits off it is anyone planning on doing a built engine and wanting a base to start from?

 

Let me know or it's getting stripped :)

 

PS I have a spare crank for a VQ in the shed (doesn't everyone? :p )

Hope you don't mind the idiot question but what does "a blown bottom end" actually mean?

 

It means the top end is ok. :lol:

 

Also we'd like to see pics and user name with "blown bottom end" :lol:

I think the opposite it a blown top end which translates as soggy saddlebags :)

OK This is going well :lol:

 

@ Wizurd - Blown bottom end means - No oil and the Big end bearings have been turned into metal shavings and thrown round the engine - it also gives a lovely rattling noise when revved - if you continue to drive you may even get it to blow up :)

 

@ Wasso Pics to follow but here is a boring one

@ Attak Z Love this "think the opposite it a blown top end which translates as soggy saddlebags"

I still hate secrets :wacko:

 

For some obscure reason, Chris seems to be under the impression that I like the colour orange, no idea why :shrug:

 

He also has a 'spare' pair of orange seats....
