My car has been diagnosed with oil consuming issues. Now at the time of purchase it came with a transferable warranty(Non-Nissan). This party will be paying, partially, for the rebuild.

My question, what should be changed / fixed on this rebuild in order to stop and or lessen the oil consumption issues?


65,000 miles coupe with 6mt.


Thanks, HKK

 

see if they will float you the cash for this --> http://www.z1motorsports.com/350_g35...oducts_id=4265

kinda weird they give you the money to rebuild, im guessing thats because of the aftermarket warranty

 

Thats a nice rebuild kit! Wondering if I should do the same on my 06 that eats oil like a ****?

 

How bad is the oil consumption? All 05-07's have OC, it's just a question of how bad it is. Mine is only 1qt per 4000 miles so I just let it go. Also, how much is partial payment, 50%?

 

Mines pretty bad about a quart every 6-700 but runs absolutley perfect! Im just afraid to bring it in cuz I know im down 2-3k easy already!

 

1/4-1/2 a quart per 625 miles, runs great. Paying 50% for the rebuild.

 

Thats cool u gunna use that kit above?

 

Still looking into all the details of the rebuild, keep ya posted. More info Monday.

 

I would just go with the rebuilt short block from importpartspro

 

Ok, please detail as to what is replaced on a short-block! Thanks!

 

Replaces the lower part of your engine. Crank, rods, and pistons. Search importpartspro, and look at their engine packages. Also great prices

 

Getting the engine rebuilt at a cost to me of $ 2500, all that needs to be changed will be fixed.

 

Here's a copy and paste from the website http://www.importpartspro.com/st1blon.html

stage 1 block build $2600. You can tell them just to go stock compression if you don't want to turbo in the future.

Product Description
This Stage 1 VQ35 Block is good for someone who wants a safe turbo charged or super charged Nissan 350z or Infiniti G35 without the worry of detonation. The stage 1 package is good for up to 650 Rwhp(We strongly recommend a sleeved block for over 650 Rwhp). The Stage 1 VQ35 block comes with a full one year warranty against machining defects and comes with our 10+ years experience on building Nissan/Infiniti motors.

Stop wasting time and getting your self into headaches. Who will be putting the shortblock together and moving over timing components. Are these guys certified or even experienced to work on VQ engines specifically revup which has intake and exhaust timing. Call up courtesy nissan and tell them you want the online/g35 driver discount. You will be out of state and save on tax but cough up like $250-500 in shipping I would imagine. Just buy a crate motor and drop it in since it comes with all new timing components and ready to go. Have fun torquing the heads, mating the surface, assembling to spec, blueprinting/balancing, moving over timing and setting it correctly. Oh who is planning on replacing all the old worn out tensioner, oil pump and fun stuff......
