same here. I hear of people getting really high compression on some VE motors, but I got mine from miko and it had 180 across the board. These really high numbers seem kinda suspect. I have seen va...
ya, but when you change the base timing off the dizzy the computer doesn't know that you advanced it. The computer just does what it was programmed to do, but it cant read when you change the timin...
start with 1200-1500 grit sandpaper and wet sand the lense, then move to higher grit around 2000 and wet sand again. Finish off with some 3M rubbing compound. They will look like new. You can use a...
Nissan crazy why are you sleeving the block? The stock block can easily handle 500whp if it is kept stock bore. Guys around here are doing 700whp+ on...
I will be upgrading the piping first is what I meant. The TB is an extra $200 that isn't in my budget right now, but that could change if I get some of my old parts sold.
On mine I blew the coupler right off the intercooler. There was zero boost getting through. I tried driving the car to the gas station after it blew cause I wasn't far from home, but the car would ...
I purchased a all-aluminum rad from rockauto.com. It came and was 7/8" thick, all aluminum, but had the 1 1/16 inlet and outlet from the 1.6 liter. I took the rad hose from the 1.6 and slid it on, ...
You should be able to use a bkr6eix and .044" gap with no issues as long as the right fuel mix is there. If you still foul them out then there is prob excess fuel causing the problem.
I documented the differences in oil pumps between the stock GTiR and the VE pump on my VET build thread. There are pics there. You get way better oil pressure and the VE pump can also rev a lot hig...
I tried running my car NA and it wouldn't go over 2500rpm on blow thru. This is purely in the tune I think. I blew off a coupler getting on the freeway once and I got stranded. Car wouldn't make it...
You learned the equation, now explain how Torque matters again? That's like saying "amperage is better than watts of power", but Watts is the actual amount of power being made. HP is power. Period....
HP is a measure of work/time. You can create torque without any work actually being done is what ben is saying. Getting work done as fast as possible is what makes the car go fast. Therefore, HP is...
The VE head flows better than the De head, but you can get in the same ballpark with just S4 cams in the DE. When is the ve gonna get a 12mm lift cam that makes good midrange and top end? Would the...

^^^^ exactly what I was thinking, but I would like to see the specs of the VE cams vs the B series cams at the same lift etc. I know you can't compare these cams directly against each other etc, bu...
I posted earlier that the B18c5 cams were a low duration, but it seems like that 240 duration was measured at 1mm lift, so they are actually:
Int-278 dur. / 11.5mm lift
Exh-280 dur. / 10.5mm lift...
