Damn that sounds like a nice build on the KA. I just talked with the guy who put my stuff together, he thinks it's a timing issue, we're going back in tomorrow to see what we can do to fix this. Other than that, cams are coming this month so next dyno tune will be nice hopefully, and power fc as well.

I think my timing issue is more to do with how many links between each cam gear. I took the motor apart, there were 21 links inbetween the top of the gears, like the intake cam was advanced one link for some reason. I put it back together with factory specs of 20, anybody know if this would cause anything..or even know what im talking about?

Post by **dave37905** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 11:38 am

it should be 20 rollers, not links. i dont know if that will make a difference but it sounds more like an ignition timing issue or a boost leak. its always a good idea to check compression too if you havent.

don does the car have any driveability issues? misfiring, bogging?

runs perfect, a little boggy in the low rpm's just because theres no tune from 3k down. but other than that, perfect. i talked to the guy who tunes my car, he said one link could make a whole difference maybe, we're puttin the link back on tomorrow..i mean roller SORRY DAVE!! haha, we'll see. Compressions fine across the cylinders, my head machining took care of my weak number 4. and no boost leak, hittin 18psi and staying. thats what everythings set at. HOPEFULLY this will solve my problem, my timings retarded..really.

Post by **S13FASTBACKSR** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 2:48 pm

no tune from 3krpm down? ive never heard of that before..bogging before that rpm sounds like the timing yes that one roller will make a difference..let us know what happens..oh and by the way..if the ecu is not tuned accurately under 3krpm even though ive never heard of that, or anywhere it will give you horrible numbers..but i dont think that is your problem because your numbers would be higher than 250whp once you passed 3krpm

My high settings are adjusted a little on my AFC from 3k down just not perfect, and since my dyno runs started at 3500 it didnt even show on the dyno chart. but i'll keep you updated on how it runs with the additional roller in, i just havent had time to mess with the AFC a lot.

Post by **JDogg95** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 3:44 pm

A little off topic but what rpm do you shift at?

Post by **boostedkouki** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 3:47 pm

7k-ish...thats if im going all out. but I'm usually going all out..

Be careful then you WILL drop a valve if you rev too high.It's not alot of money to make your car SAFELY rev to 8500rpm.http://briancrower.com/makes/nissan/sr20det.shtml

NICE!It's gonna be sweet to have another 8,500rpm motor running around!Well until I get my lash Killer kit in then you will be the only one.

8500rpm? what about an RX7? lol jk whats new guys? how is everyone

Post by **JDogg95** » Tue Apr 17, 2007 4:42 pm

LOLNada whats new with you?

OMG I didn't tell you guys on my way to Tampa to get a new transmission a Saleen Mustang does a ricer move and revs at me. I couldn't stop laughing.

Post by **boostedkouki** » Tue Apr 17, 2007 5:02 pm

You shoulda torn it all up!! Haha, I went up to XAT on Friday, when did you go up? My exhaust manifold to turbo gasket completely blew out around Ft.Drum and took it all the way up there for HIN, and XAT. sucked...

About the cams, 264's all around would you say? I've seen a combo 272 and 264. would that be 272 intake 264 exhaust? and the rocker arm stoppers, i dont understand what the hell those even are, do they just prevent spring float (or w/e they call it). I need those along with all the cam stuff i've heard. Help the noob!!

Post by **S13FASTBACKSR** » Tue Apr 17, 2007 6:33 pm

264 cams are perfect for the 3071r IMO as long as they are step 2's..the step 1's stop making power at about 390-400whp..what are your power goals? i'd say anything over 450whp go with 272's but i dont think the 3071r will make much power over 450whp anyways..i know of a guy who made 430whp on 20psi on the 3071r and im sure he had cams and a nice intake manifold..I dont know how much boost the 3071r can withstand but like i said i dont think it will make much more power than 450 maybe 460whp because the 3076r is good for 500whp and not too many guys see that anyhow..i'd go with the 264's with your turbo..that is the best match..as long as they are step 2's

EDIT: I forgot you are not getting hks 264 cams..you are getting BC 264's..BC 264's have a lift of 12.06mm which is a very aggressive lift so yes those are definately the best cam for your turbo due to the fact that they flow best with that turbo and will make just about as much power as your turbo is capable of making

ANOTHER EDIT: RAS are useless..what they do is stop your rocker arms from flying off the valvesprings, lifter and cam and falling into your head somewhere BUT guess what i've heard plenty of horror stories that they dont prevent this at all..they only make it worse..the rocker arm will still fly off with the RAS installed but the RAS will break the rocker arm into many pieces and they will fall into your head somewhere..it is unlikely for your rocker arm to fly off anyhow..so what im sayin is if it does then thats ok pull the valve cover find it and put it back on ..If it flys off with RAS installed plan on hunting down all the little pieces and buying a new rocker arm ..a lot more work time and money

Post by **boostedkouki** » Wed Apr 18, 2007 5:42 am

Damn thanks for the info!! Helps a lot, so I guess RAS are a hit or miss type deal. I'll pray nothing will happen without them I guess. After cams and all that, comes the intake plenum. Then..idk

...GT42

Post by **JDogg95** » Wed Apr 18, 2007 5:46 am

Don:I went to XAT last month for the transmission swap.And how does XAT suck?RAS do work (been running them in my car for 2 years) and don't cost that much anyway. Since you are upgrading your valve-train you will be able to put your rev limiter out to 8500 or 8000 which ever you feel comfortable with. Longer time in boost ownz.When you buy BC cams they come as a pair (I have the BC 272's) so you may as well go 264 on both sides. But you will have to buy the 264s somewhere other than Briancrower.com since they have been outta stock for 3 months now.

Dude come to my house one day. I will give you a ride in my car and show you what a GT35R can do with HKS 264 cams, and a built valvetrain (BC 272's arent it yet)
