That engine has all the signs of good maintenance and a healthy amount of Italian tuneup. The windage from frequent high rpm keeps the oil deposits from building up, running a high quality synthetic oil doesn't sludge and varnish very easily, the intake ports have a nice healthy fuel washdown pattern, the back of the intake valves are clean, and the dry areas of the ports have minimal buildup. It would have been interesting to see how the rings looked as far as how clean or fouled the grooves and oil rings were, as hard driving tends to keep them relatively clean as well.

Stopping the crank for harmonic change. I use a trick my uncle showed me, i know not the best method. But remove plug and go to tdc on c1. 1/2 rotation on crank, feed about 6-8" of some 1/4" rope thru plug hole, clothes line works great. Intake valve will close, then continue spinning crank. The rope will stop piston without metal to metal contact. Turn back for removal. Helps for changing valve seals without pulling heads too.

Never heard of a bearing issue on a vq lol, only thing major that should be done on vq's roughly between 100-140k miles depending is timing chain stuff and do water pump & valve cover gaskets (valve cover gaskets are easy asf) while you're in there. Other than that if you literally keep routine basic stuff(oil change + filter, diff oil, transmission fluid), these are literally some of the most consistently reliable engines.

The fact that it still turns over relatively easily means its likely "ok" since its not binding up in the rear main, but still would be good to check. I'd also want to check for cracks as well in that area, but it might not be so easy to inspect without fully tearing it down. I suspect what broke the trans off was having the front of the motor impact whatever the car ran into which then turned it at an angle relative to the trans, which snapped the bellhousing. Amazing the short-block survived that.

Technique i got from an experienced retired mechanic to get a crank bolt off without an impact is to take the heads off or at just one and shove some rope in one of the cylinders and put the head back on and can take a breaker bar to the bolt and the engine wont turn all the over. Used it once and it worked great, and the rope is soft enough so it wont damage anything. time consuming taking the head off, on, and then back off but if that's all you got then it works great.

I cant stand knowing a VQ whether a 35 or 40 has failed. Because these motors are built SUPER TOUGH. So it must take a lot to kill one. And Nissans greatest feat for a mass produced motor will always be the VQ series in my opinion. Edit: The reason i am so confident in these motors is because i bought an 06 Xterra with 236,000 miles. After SMOD, and 3,000 miles and 1 Winter later, it developed the oh so annoying CHATTER. Well, i drove the X like this up until 322,600 miles. It just got to be so loud in drive thrus that i HAD to replace the Timing Components. And upon Front Cover Removal, i had ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO timing chain tension. The guides were destroyed and all 3 tensioners were collapsed. But this engine kept running non stop. The chain was so loose it chewed a 1/4" valley into the rear timing cover and oil gallery plate. No misfire, no failure and no timing jumped. Now i want all readers who are mechanically inclined to think about that for a moment. NO CHAIN TENSION? And running it at 5500 RPMs a lot to pass? And this engine is STILL running good? How?!?!?!?!

This engine reminds me of an ambulance the yard I work for bought a few years back, it had a low output version of a duramax with a 4L80E behind it. It bumped into something and bent the torque converter. (yes you read that correctly) The torque converter neck being bent bound it over the input shaft of the transmission, 2 or 3 of the original 6 torque converter bolts were still holding on (heads popped off the other bolts) to the stamped drive plate (which was bent like potato chip) but still bolted to the crank. This drive plate being separate from the cast flywheel on a duramax, which in this case was in pieces. Were it not for what you just read the transmission likely would've been ejected, and all that was required to separate the engine from the trans was cutting the steel drive plate with the torch around the converter bolts through the convenient user installed access gap between the engine and trans.

We use to have a full size, Ford E-350 van with a heavy duty trailer hitch. One day, she was rear ended by a kid driving his Father’s Acura Integra. He & his buddy were looking to the left at a For Sale car parked in a vacant lot. They didn’t notice that the traffic he was following by 20 car lengths had stopped for a pedestrian in a crosswalk. Just before impact he noticed the impending collision and jammed on the brakes. Which caused the nose of the Integra to dive, low enough that our van’s trailer hitch took the head off the Integra’s engine. My point is that even minor collisions can destroy an engine depending on the details of the impact.
