Wrecked bearings but went to crank too. Thats why POC is rebuliding his to 2.0 the big ends were gone in his. and another one he had from japan when it came the big ends were knackered. Thats 2 from the same man I could name countless others too. We have lots of vz-r's over here and it aint uncommon I can tell ya that. There was one lad who serviced his every 5k kms with castrol the works and his went just going to the shops. I personally think its loss of oil press.
As for the 1.6 debate well that was what the car was built for really as a 1.6 and not a 2.0. But in fairness if I had to rip the bottom end anyway due to big ends going I would stroke it no doubt especially since it's so easy done. But until that day i'm very content with 1.6. You would be suprised what a 1.6 could take is right i have seen off much bigger opponents tuned gtst skylines an ep3 civic R and the whole lot at drag racing
