Nissan 300zx 120k Timing Service Part 2 

"okay this is an easy step, should get it done in no time" *3 billion setbacks later*

First!!!!! Bro I love your channel upload more please I have a z myself and I've learned so much from your channel

umm you didnt do the crankshaft seal...I drilled out and tapped two holes on the front of the sprocket and used a puller to get it off. But going through all that trouble and not replacing that seal is dumb.

Glad to see you're back

Nicely done Rahee! Funny enough I just did my timing belt change yesterday but still watch your video to ensure I haven't missed anything. I upgraded to the UD crank pulley and she drives amazing now :) I plan to replace the header next. Hope you can make a video on that! Cheers

WRONG! The outer perimeter surface of a seal is to be dry as well as it's mating surface of the hole that it is pressed into,only the center hole that makes contact with the camshaft is to be lubed. It is the dry surfaces that create the friction needed to hold the seal in it's hole. That is why you had to pry hard to remove them. You pressed them in easily with your thumbs,there should have been resistance that required them to be tapped in.

Good video man! I will be replacing the drivers side VTC sproket soon so this was a helpful refresher. Thanks.

You're back! YES!

I used a paint can opener to get the seals out. The end of the paint can opener has a small hook at the end. This hook catches the back of the seal and it allows you to pull the seal out. I will try to upload a video showing you how it works.

Excellent work and explanation. Greets from Portugal mate ;)

Great info and videos man. thank you for the awesome content!

Good to see you're back

Should have changed the upper and lower timing belt idler pulley pulley studs. they are known to fail.

Just did mine with the Z1 Motorsport kit

Did you skip the front main seal? I had to do that as well, no way to get it off

The manual said. To torque the water pump, 12 to 14 footpunds.

i am doing the 120,000 mile service and I do not have the plenum off to be able to hold the crank in place. what do you recommend to use to hold the crank in place. I have a 5 speed manual.

Spooky whispers at 17:25

Where did you do the front seal? What time?

no need for rtv on the thermostat, besides you don't want that floating in the coolant

I wish you could work on my 300zx,

You mess things up when you put back all together something will be missing.. and you gonna be ooo.
