Is that a Nissan pulsar?

Post by **float_6969** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

Nope, I think its and old S12 200sx. The precurser to our cars.

I know, it is rumored that nissan designed the engine for the two purposes I stated above but then kept it at 2 liters and put it in their production cars.

yeah, my friend has one of them... the engine looks a little different though... no turbo of course and it has this crazy ignition system with 2 plugs per cyl... we're gonna fix it all up this summer, hopefully bring it back to it's former glory

Post by **themadscientist** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

that would be the old CA18E, CA18ET or CA20E depending on the model, some came with a VG30E. I once owned a notchback model with the FJ20ET, real buttshaker with a ton of power, shouldn't have junked it.

well isnt the sr2o a 2.o liter too?, however, either way, AWESOME looking, so clean, amaizng, numbers please!!

Post by **themadscientist** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

what numbers would you like?

Post by **RefriedNismo240** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

how bout hp and torque. what size is the turbo on that baby. curb wieght maybe too?

Post by **Rockenreno** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

someone with one of those needs to show up at the next big meet :P

Post by **themadscientist** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

well I know stock they came 205hp in intercooled form. The ones that show up at drag meets up in mainland are in the 400-500hp neighborhood and put down low 11s-high 12s, some 10s but rarely. Back in the day they were brutal killers but technology has allowed CA18s to edge them out and SRs to leave them behind. Still a wicked mill that garners respect from those in the know.

werd man that engine just looks plain sick.

Post by **themadscientist** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

89mm slugs, you can feel every one hit the top of it's stroke, sends shivers down your back.

Post by **[Zero-S]** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

Someone around heres running one of those...Crazy stuff.

Post by **Onizuka** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

not to metion you can get them for less than a CA18DET.

Post by **BuudWeizErr** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

I would trade my car for that car right now...

Turbo looks like a random T3/T04E to me.

EDIT:actually no... i like my car too much. That car is SIIIIICK though.

think that FJ would look nice in a 510??

I DO

Post by **themadscientist** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

oh it would drop right in too:evilhaha

Post by **Megaseth** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

I saw a pic of one on some guys site. Looked real nice. real mean too with that big intercooler sitting behind the grill, could barely see it. looked like a real sleeper.

as light as that car is you would need minimum 8" slicks to put it down.

Post by **krazy skwerel** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

i think Adam Corrolla of the man show and other assorted programming has a 510 with that engine. saw it on the damn super2nr tv when they did a tribute to nissans.

Post by **cndctrdj** » Mon Apr 21, 2003 2:25 pm

i like supr2nrtv they give alot of credit to nissans. they are the only ones

supposedly the FJ is probably the strongest 4 cylinder engine ever built (in terms of being indestructable - not nesscessarily power)
