Quick tip: When you're doing a pump bench test like this with exposed fuel vapour (not a great idea to start with), do the final power connection at the battery side and not at the pump. If there's a spark when you touch the wire at the pump end you'll have more than a holed block to worry about.
How do you get it was a conrod fail? Generally if they break a rod the piston is left in the top of the bore. I’m calling valve fail, all of the indents in the bore are from that valve head smashing around and this destroyed the piston
@@MotiveVideo you see the other inlet valve sitting pretty good considering, while the exhaust valves defiantly have hit the piston. it is a tell tale right there more than likely the missing inlet valve dropped
@@tkkk20 totally agree. If it broke a rod the piston would have stayed in the bore. This thing dropped a valve which bounced around the bore leaving obvious valve impressions all over the bore.
that fuel pump test rig makes me nervous. Spraying fuel in the air using alligator clips to complete the circuit that can spark....yikes. I'll just imagine it wasn't fuel, just yellow water.
I almost caught my parents house on fire but sticking a fuel pump in a container then jumping it at the pump. The spark set it all on fire and we scrambled to get it away from the garage
my mate paul told me the issue is that gasoline when burned inside the cilindder makes a lot of pressure, and sometimes the piston and rod don't feel like taking that overwhelming pressure anymorebecause of depression and they just end their lives... so sad. rip in piece little rod guy :( if you are stuggling with depression, please call 911
I agree, those sodium filled valves can fail. Rods have been pushed to over 800 wheel horsepower before they bend and they still run fine when bent for years after!! These engines don't randomly break
MATE!! NEARLY REMOVED YOURSELF FROM THE GENE POOL! I do however disagree about the conrod being the root cause. With the number of marks on the head and bore it looks more likely that the valve failed first.
I stand by my comment from the previous episode - It was likely tuned at some stage meaning much more pressure on the bottom end, they flashed it back to stock and sold the car. Rod let go from fatigue.
There wasn't any damage you'd see from detonation on the ring lands or bearings and no teltale oil starvation (crank isnt blued by lack of lubrication causing heat), so I'm thinking it's more that sometimes things just fail
@Low760 the crank and bearings were fine, it looked more like the little end sized in the piston, or there could've been a flaw in the conrod and that's where the failure started
Think going to the USA where they have the 35 gtr really well developed you’ll find a motor or at least the options of different combinations you can fit in a suitcase to bring back in pieces that you can take to the next level All the best with the festival over there and developing more contacts
Part of me was asking why you would just go back to a stock motor, but then realized wait this is Andrew! He wants to take us step by step and show us the progress of every little upgrade along the way. Keep up the great content man! Can you guys build a car to attend World Cup Finals in the USA for next year?
Well stock blocks weakness is the Rod. So doing a good rotating assembly in the cast block is good for what? 1600hp or more? No reason to go billet straight away. Many many adventures before that's needed.
That fuel pump setup was the most dangerously ghetto thing I've seen in awhile, I've seen dudes blown up with petrol, please rethink what you're doing there..
Most youtubers end with "Like, comment, subscribe!" I've never seen someone get so bent out of shape over comments. Not just this video. Even if you don't like what the "keyboard mechanic" has to say, at least it's helping the algorithm. You're welcome.
It's really interesting. Hawkins seems to have a really genuine disdain for negative comments and the people who leave them but yet there is always someone from the channel in the comment section replying to them which is most likely just feeding them and getting them noticed which leads to more negativity. I wonder if stuff like this is what stops the chancel growing like he is expecting it to.
Great video, unlucky result with the engine that must be frustrating no doubt. Ps couldn’t also help but worry about the risk of a fire when I saw that fuel pump test😅 All the best with the rebuild 🤞🏾
Ouch, sorry for your loss. Hit the material failure lottery with that one, xray/crack test the next lot but it can be anything in the end.. looks like a valve broke off and did the old bounce-aroony. You can see the pit marks while it got smashed into the head until the rod broke. 16:13 and 16:35 the shear line on that valve stem is wild, I'd say that's your failure, material failure that caused a crack to propagate, it's so clean it must have just dropped straight off into the cylinder in one piece. VR platform isn't cheap, it's why I stick to LS.
we saw a lot of valves drop in the 02 to 06 sodium filled valves and 99% exhaust valves. We still get the odd ones drop but no where near the old ones. 06 and up were the better ones but I’ve heard they are again using a filled valve.
As a post mortem, maybe do a liquid penetrant test on the remaining 5 conrods and the undersides of the pistons? It is a long shot, but if either the rod itself let go, or the underside of the piston dropped the wrist pin (gudgeon pin) due to fatigue cracking, you _might_ see evidence of that on the remaining parts. Those parts are likely from the same batches and have undergone the same load cycles and temperatures. You might find cracks that were not yet big enough to cause failure. Normally you can identify fatigue cracking by looking at the two fracture surfaces, fatigue cracking creates a very distinctive pattern, but here the failed parts are properly mangled.
Guys from the strip down evidence it really does point to dropping a valve , not that it makes any difference to the end result . Best of luck with the rebuild 👍🙏 😊
thats bad luck. hope the likes and comments from this video help pay towards the new motor. looking forward to all the content you make on this gtr. long time follower.
I'm only half way through but had to stop and compliment you on a great video. Enjoying the engine tear down. You've really got problems when you pull a complete valve head out the sump, geez- this one's only good for scrap and some spare random parts... Wrecker motor here we come? Or full engine build? All depends on how deep the pockets are
Surely this wasn't on a stock map anymore? Im guessing when you upgraded the Gearbox software you changed the Engine map? Possible over boost or issue with the turbo on that bank of cylinders?
I've got a GSXR engine that looks like this. dropped a valve. closer inspection of the fracture of the valve stem still in the head may give you some clues as to whether this was the root cause.
I hate v6's, I know they make sense from a size and weight distribution point of view but they sound crap and too complex. A straight 6 sounds better, easier and cheaper to work on. Andrew could could stick one of the upcoming PRP cast iron RB blocks in there.
Sorry for the los of your engine but if you do build it do know that it's a common thing the rods are very brittle in those engines hence the first thing I always do is rods as a rule
Keyboard guy here. Given that the car was near stock and piston went straight into the head and other rods or pistons showing signs of too much load. I was guessing the timming chain slipped. 😂
This production is the first generation. Whats new about it. Kid has turned it into an afterburner plenty of time before selling it off to you. Music has definitely gotten better. Earlier it sounded like a lunatic went crazy on the turntable.
Are the Air Filters ok ? There’s been a couple of cases here in the UK where the Foam Filters have totally degraded, sucked something in through the turbo and detonated the engine
Interesting if the fellas at the workshop have noted that on earlier R35s the Rods decided to let go every now and then. I wounder if it is something to do with Rod material. Could they have possibly changed material on newer models? or maybe because they are hand built some of them where poorly put together earlier in the production cycle? 🤔
Oh man this sucks. So sorry dude 😢. Didn't some of the early GTRs have an engine recall or something? Maybe this one wasn't recalled? Its making me nervous since I'm looking for an early model GTR right now. Waiting for the right one at the auctions. Hopefully i don't get a lemon.
Holy moly… carnage galore, makes my slapping piston in my rb30 look like a hero flopping around. Need a S2 RB30 engine. Also seems unobtainium??? What gives..?
Wish to know what was a driving condition when it happens. It seems like engine was running for a while before it exploded. Does it happen while driving slow or fast under pressure?
To much torque for oem rods. And rod said by bye. Unfortunately, its to common to remote map a car, with no dyno, and also put the map back to oem, before selling. But damage is already done, and engine is a ticking time bomb.
Before watching I'm going with oil starvation from a blocked passage or previously hurt motor that was returned to stock and grenaded on new owner. Let see what happened....
I've never understood how people can say it was this or that at this kind of destruction. I have over reved an engine and dropped a valve and it did exactly the same damage, Granted that was only a B16 engine.
That’s because you are right. It’s so rare to see a rod just break. And nothing points to that in this engine. You have bearings that show no signs of any sort of failure and rods They haven’t shown the valve train. But it’s very obvious that a valve has dropped. Whether it valve bounced, broke a valve spring, collets, rocker, lifter failure. Would be quite obvious if they inspect it
I even asked Andrew at GTR festival when is he going to be a lab rat for us for a R35 series and he bloody jumps 10 steps ahead. Lol fuck now we need to catch up lol
Because the gearbox have been changed it could have been an over rev situation when the gearbox let go and the rod got weakend and was a ticking bomb on when to let go.
