hey just wanted to let everyone know that on sunday november second i will be rebuilding my vtc's. it seems that there is a lack of info and pics on the subject as far as 1) where they are and 2) how they come out. There is a TSB on rebuilding them but not how to get them out of the car. so im going to take pics and try to give you guys a write up step by step (for the people who dont know) how to do this in a days work. Ill start off by saying this. i bought used ones off ebay then ordered the rebuild kit from nissan. im having nissan put the new springs in so i know it done right. so all i have to do is pull them out and put them in !! more to come when i actually do it. Ill also be putting in my new UDP and my new CAI that day also, i cant wait !!!

 

put each mod on seperately... trust me, thats the fun in modding. You get a sense for what each part did.

I'll try to find the pics I took of my engine tear down for you.

 

hey any help would be great. but unfortunatly all i got was a day out of the wife to do all this. from 8am till im done. she taking the kid out for teh day so im left by myself all day with the car so i have to do it all at once. its like a party for my maxima..lol

 

I used to have some really nice pictures of my actual tear down. I'll try to find them.

For now maybe these will get you excited

So, you bought the vtc's off of ebay I told you about? Have you got them yet?

 

If you have a FSM (which you should since you are going to be tackling a big task), the EM section for the timing chain will give you the guidance that you need. In the '94FSM, the pages are EM-53 thru EM-66. For a half-azzed illustrated parts breakdown of the VTC, see pages EF & ec-175 and 176.

Good luck with your rebuild.

 

Lack of info or pics????

This is in the stickies right?

But get yourself a Nissan FSM BEFORE you do anything else.

 

Thanks Jeff!
That makes the job look easy

 

No problem Eric. Actually pretty good info but as an addition to the fsm.

You know why it looks easy? Because they just show the front side. Muhahahahahaha!

 

i bought them and paid for them im still waiting on them to get to me. i emailed the guy asking him if they were shipped or not and whats the deal. i got them for 10 bucks - cant beat it ! i already ordered the rebuild kits.

 

Can't beat that!

 

i just hope they come hes been a bit shady about answering emails

 

Good luck buddy!

 

good news he emailed me back and it was shipped tuesday ! cant wait !!

 

Awesome! He's got more vtc's on ebay for $5 if someone else wants some.

 

If its the same guy, those are the solenoids, not the actual VTC assemblies.

 

actually they are the sprokets heres the link to my purchase.
