Hi everyone, My names Ian and i bought my mps6 back in October,absolutely love how the car performs & handles,its a real sleeper. Looking forward to modding it further,after biting the bullet & getting the chain & vvt actuator replaced recently. i was a past member on the nissan owners club.Hoping to pick up some good advice and knowledge on the forum. Thanks Ian

No problem,Cost me just over a grand,was gonna just replace the chain,but because of some issues with vvt failing,the garage said they wouldn't charge me anymore for labour if i replaced it at the same time as the chain,didn't want to take a chance,so replaced it for peace of mind,engine is so much quiter.
