My VE at the Deep shop has a knifed 8cw crank and a girdle. N1 pistons for compression. Is the crank scraper and baffles advised as well? This one in Teflon is what I was considering:

So the FSM is the word of god and never wrong.

Maybe someone can provide pictures and I can be wrong and shamed more by you?

Come on, I just want to see some sort of resolution here and if my argument can provide some factual information, that would be well worth the hazing!

Here we go from Mr. Miko

Nissan X-Trail 2000 Press Release

The girdle was added to reduce noise and vibration, but it does produce some windage losses due to the oil passing between the girdle and the crank. A girdle can be added to brace the main caps and produce less harmonic vibrations, making it safer to rev higher and leading to longer bearing life.

They are nice and all but for an N/A setup I wouldn't bother. We have been spinning these thing up to 10K without any bearing issues and this is after long period of abuse. I do like it on a turbo motor since I think of it as a 'brace'.

We put the girdle on my buddy's VE+T we built. I think it's really worth it, personally. I don't think we put the 8cw crank in, but it's been a couple of year, so I don't remember exactly. With the girdle, and lots of abuse that car is still going strong! The GTi-R T28 is starting to show some signs of abuse (smokes a very little bit occasionally), but it did get pulled from a GTi-R engine that had a piston basically just spider and crumble inside the block. It was nasty...

We've got another friend that is slowly modifying the ITB's from that GTi-R to fit his NA VE. They might not be ideal, but he's really excited to see how it will respond.
