Howdy All,
It's been A VERY long time since i've been or posted here - but I was thinking about attending the Weekender this year and thought it might be interesting to give you an update on what...
Ahhh.... Right
So i figured this out. Basically, i am being a total effin retard.
I have it plumbed in the wrong way round and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working until i actually drew it...
Yeah, thing is I have done that :-( It's the first thing I tried.
A Thermostatic sandwich plate doesn't work as a 'block off' to the oil cooler. It works as a partial bypass to 90% or so of the oil...
Howdy,
Not posted on here in a while, but wondered if the combined technical knowledge of the SXOC might be able to come up with some ideas on this one.
I have a Mocal Thermostatic sandwich plate...
I have had some really great experience with the Performance Friction pads. I run them on my track bike and have also had them in a car on the road - way WAY better than any of the EBC or Brembo pads...
Yep - blocked breathers in the head. Check and clean them all out.
If your breathers are blocked up then the only place for the crank case gasses to vent from is the dipstick.
I have driven and drifted a couple of cars with them on. I thought they were actually pretty good. I don't rate the BC Racing or Meister R's as they are cheap and crappy with poor valving - but the...
Yep,
We are properly lucky here in the UK. We have a decent engine machine shop in most towns - CK Motor Engineers do all my machining work and balancing here in High Wycombe. Really old school...
100% IDC doesn't mean the injector is constantly open all the time - it just means that it's fully open at certain points of the map, which is usually when taxing the engine (or for most people,...
It's been covered a bazillion times.
Either:
Don't run a dump valve at all
Pros
- No leaks
- No air loss in the system resulting in cyl's running rich
Cons
- Can stall the compressor and...
Lol Mark :-)
BOT:
As others have said, your cam timing is squiffy. Hence why your compression results are so low. You need to reset the timing on the entire engine right back to making sure that...
Oopps...
Sorry mate, i wasn't calling YOU a fan boy retard (but reading it again, i can see how it came across like that!) Was trying to make a point about people who set the gain really high to...
Yes you can and Driftworks do the ultimate hicas eliminator bar which is really good. It replaces the hicas unit with a mount that you can connect an S14 Toe arm onto. But it's £200 and to fit it,...
Or just save yourself time + money and buy two £1 blanking plugs and block off the water feeds all together. They do bugger all anyway.
There is "the best place" and "the easiest place"
The easiest is between the intercooler and your radiator set (or radiator if you junked aircon) The downside to this is that the air hitting the...
Yep,
But they are not constantly adjusting the lash. The rocker arms are not the strongest in the world (granted) but it's the combination of the hydraulic lash adjusters and valve bounce that...
I have seen people snap rocker arms sitting on the rev limiter at 7500 :wack: but as you said, the rodbolts,solid lifters and valve springs are so that you can run 8500+rpm rev limit. For a drivable...
Well, that's a matter of opinion i guess :-)
Buying fancy rods, pistons etc is all a bit of a waste of money if your only going for 400ish HP. SR bottom ends are strong, it's the head where you need...
It seems to be a common practice within the 200sx community to build engines with off the shelf parts without any real reason for doing so. If you only want circa 400fwhp then save yourself the money...
Yep,
It'll work fine.
Now your asking... iirc base pressure was something like 4.2bar with a Z32afm. Unless your planning on going for over 350fwhp the RB25 afm is cheaper and has the same results.
As with anything car related, if you use it wrong you can screw most things up. The Bee*R is actually a great tool on drift cars providing you use it as it was intended (to allow the engine to cut...
Shockingly, standard injectors with an FPR will do circa 300fwhp. It's the AFM that holds it back.
Nismo 2 way is the best road diff, it's quiet, locks up smoothly and isn't crashy or stuttery like the cusco or horrible KAAZ rubbish.
