AAM Competition Nissan VR38DETT GT-R Engine Crank Balance

[esobofh]

I would have thought that the Nissan techs would have balanced the crank appropriately... why are you guys doing it again?

@esobofh

I imagine they refurbished this crank. If this was the stock crank in a new GT-R there would not had been a need to do it unless the engine failed. In all due consideration, the VR38DETT is one of the most precisely manufactured engines in the world.

@clos19851 They're balancing the shaft as per the video title. What, you expected to see something that's not a crank spinning?

[clos19851]

@ph33x dont they drill on the counterweights I expected some drillin lol

@clos19851 Depends on the workshop. They can drill the weights, or regrind the whole shaft itself. But this phase is just a balance check. Imagine putting your hands in there. :/
