Z31 Rebuild. VG30ET guru's needed
I recently started a restoration of a VG30ET motor for a pathfinder build and as a long ago member of the ORG I know there are members here far smarter than the other nissan related forums out there. I'm looking at capedcadaver, matt93se, and greeny to name a few.
The motor had low compression when I got it (motor was free) and upon teardown I found that 3 cyclinars have ringland failure. Everything thing else measures out fine but the bores need to be re bored at least 20 over. The problem I am finding is sourcing new pistons. Nissan doesn't have them and several ebay searches yield really old replacements that are not the W series floating wrist pins that I need.
??Z32 pistions?? everyone tells me something different and before I had over $800+ dollars I need to be sure on them.
Any other sources, vendor's whatever will be appreciated
