What is the main benefit of using titanium retainers?

Titanium retainers are significantly lighter than stock steel retainers. This reduced mass in the valvetrain helps improve valve control at higher engine speeds, reducing the risk of valve float.

Are these retainers compatible with stock valve springs?

These Brian Crower retainers are designed to work with performance valve springs that have increased pressure. While they can be used with stock springs, they are most beneficial when paired with springs that match their intended use in a performance build.

What other parts are typically replaced when installing retainers?

When replacing retainers, it's common practice to also replace the valve springs, valve seals, and sometimes the valve guides to ensure a complete and reliable valvetrain overhaul.

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Nissan VQ35DE engine, whether it's for a 350Z, Altima, or G35, you'll want to consider upgrading your valve spring retainers. These Brian Crower titanium retainers are a popular choice when you're pushing the limits of the stock valvetrain or looking for improved reliability under high RPMs.

Made from strong, lightweight titanium, these retainers help reduce the overall mass in the valvetrain. This can lead to better valve control at higher engine speeds, which is crucial for preventing valve float and ensuring consistent performance. They are well-built to handle the stresses of performance camshafts and increased spring pressures, making them a solid option for builds aiming for more power or better durability. They fit a wide range of Nissan and Infiniti vehicles, including models like the Murano and Maxima.

When installing these, remember they are part of a larger valvetrain system. Ensure all other components, like valve springs and seals, are in good condition and compatible with the increased demands. This upgrade is a smart move for anyone serious about getting the most out of their VQ35DE.
