SCCX General Discussion / Adopt A Trail Inquiry
« Last post by Ghost65 on May 18, 2022, 07:17:38 AM »
As a courtesy, I'm sharing this email sent regarding the past invovlement of SCCX...let me know via PM if anyone is interested in moving forward with the program.  If there is no interest, let me know also, and I will reply in kind.  Hope this message finds you all well.  :)

Hello,
I'm trying to find points of contact for the San Bernardino National Forest (SBNF) Adopt-A-Trail program.  I am combing through several lists I've received, and SoCal Xterra is listed as the adoptee for 2N02 (Arrastre Creek). 

As you may know, when the Program Ranger Greg departed, and then the COVID situation hit, the program suffered greatly.  Several clubs are attempting to get this program started again, and I'm trying to get a grip on where the program stands.  Does SoCal Xterra still have interest in participating in the Adopt-A-Trail program?  We are making significant progress in bringing the program back online.  I currently have you listed as the point of contact for SoCal Xterra.  If you are not the correct person to contact, would it be possible for you to point me in the right direction?  If SoCal Xterra is still interested in taking part in the program, we would greatly appreciate your participation.  I hope you'll join us in keeping these trails open for everyone to enjoy.

Respectfully,
Nick Clark

If you want to start wheeling again post up in here. While things have gone fairly quiet over the last year or two there are still lot's of folks who get together and get out fairly regularly.

OK this sucks but somehow it happened again.  The timing chain jumped a tooth again.  This is the 3rd time I'll be re-doing this on my X.   But with help from Clark over at Jim Wolf Technologies in El Cajon, CA, I was able to find some interesting facts about the VQ40DE and similarities with the Skyline  GT-R VR38DETT engines built by Nismo's Takumi division.  (JWT is currently building several IMSA race-class VQ40DE motors for Nissan).
1.)   Everyone knows that the early 2nd genic steroids add bad timing chains and timing chain guides and tensioners.   Because Nissan shares the VQ blocks with the 350Z, 370Z, rare JDM Juke-R, Skyline GTR, Pathfinder, Frontier and Xterra's, they all have interchangeable parts for the engines.
2.)   The pictures below shows a Nissan Skyline timing chain and main timing chain guide compared to an aftermarket replacement.  Notice the additional gussets and beefiness of the newer OEM units compared to aftermarket parts.   The  OEM Nissan Skyline VR38 timing chain is also beefier & slightly heavier that the aftermarket timing chain.  JWT alsp said that the '03-06 350Z VQ35DE (and VQ35HR) parts flow more oil & have improved cooling, starting the that head gasket designs.  That a Tech Support bulletin that shows very detailed pictures on where to grind away aluminum for improved cooling, head gasket differences between the many engine block models and even the type of head bolt that should be used.
3.)  Also pictured is a new Stillen Racing Aluminum main pulley for both VQ35, VQ40 & VR38 motors.   Available as a standard-size replacement or an undersized version (which requires a smaller diameter of serpentine belt, yields 1-2hp more).  The difference is quite literally 1/2 lb vs. 16 lbs of rotating mass, good for 3-4hp/5-6 ft. Lbs of torque.
