lauffer does a great job but thats all up to you...

just thinking of it, i need to get a new picture up of my car... that picture doesnt depict the true SEXINESS of my car... this thing is on a vicious rake! haha

[drftsil8ty]

so whats been going on guys, Orlando sucks ***....bunch of drifter want-a-bees with all thier rich *** parents money

[JDogg95]

Tampa sucks too!Alot of fast cars and I am back to the slizzow KA.

[JDogg95]

I have a Z32 transmission forsale. Sitting in the back on my vert. Someone shoot me an offer.

[MeanGreenS13]

who wants to race... lmfao!

[GtirSentra]

a STOCK SR has Powdered Rods and Hyperutectic pistons, altho the rods are strong, they are VERY hard and brittle, forged metal flexes a little, powdered will just break.... ive had an SR i know the issues, and one of them is revving. Stock valvetrain can not rev past 7500SAFELY no matter what anyone says. Youll start floating valves. The CA18DET V2 engine such as what i have, came with factory solid lifters and the ability to safely rev past 9000rpm, the factory redline on the V2 is 8350 and with a compression ratio of 8.8:1 factory, it will get you into boost faster than an SR... that extra 189cc you SR guys have over the SR is a mere waste of space. The reason you do not see CA's over here is because parts are so difficult to get because of its age. But if people, such as myself, understand the motor and its capabilities (rememver its only a 4cyl version of the RB) they will take the extra time to search abroad and get the right parts. The CA has everything available from lightweight cranks all the way to aftermarket intake manifolds such as the SR, and the CA is an iron block motor and STILL 50lbs lighter than an SR fully dressed =)

Not trying to be an *******, but the SR is a beginners engine. JR's is nice, your build looks amazing, i loved my SR with a passion, but theres more to be gained with doing a CA, especially the fastest CA18 powered S13 in the US... the current record is 11.29 at 123... the record WILL BE MINE in the 10s.

Sorry Just reading over this. Hey phil go look up the stock specs on a gti-r motor, Remember there are diff versions of the sr20det dont just generalize. Call it a beginners motor if you like but i think not. Its a very popular motor now days but it takes alot of time and work to truely build a beast

I don't think it is. A KA-T is a beginners motor.

[GtirSentra]

I could see that being a beginners motor! but yet again to each his own

[MeanGreenS13]

ray i dont care much for any sr, yes the GTI-R SR is a little different... but its quite obvious which motor i was referring to.

The sr isnt a BAD motor. BUT the head has an INFERIOR design to the CA and RB series of engines.

The CA is sadly an overlooked engine in the nissan world due to people's lazieness. There are parts, but it requires knowledge of parts databases to find them. Alot of people just would rather not spend the time.

stock vs stock. ill take the CA any day from what i know now.

[MeanGreenS13]

oh and one other thing... I call it a beginner motor... because its become the GATEWAY to the Nissan Tuner world these days... EVERYONE HAS TO HAVE AN SR! cause its the ZOMG thing to do... lmfao ****ing kids hahaha

[GtirSentra]

Hey man as i said like a post ago to each person is his own opinion and thats kool i admire the work people put into their cars. Im not here to hate just saying dont hate on the sr! lol

Edit

and yes alot of people are getting sr's but its becuase the 240 craze is here! and guess what a few years back it was the same thing with fast and the furious everyone wanted a civic with a huge wing and neons that was extreamly fast and did 200mph with a 200shot of NOS oh boy!

[SlowS13Silvia]

uggghhhh.....welll my inferior EEESSSSSSARRRRRRRRRR is now in the process of being fully built, so boooooooo yaaahhhhhh!!

[MeanGreenS13]

good eric, cant wait to see it. Stock SR's are junk. When they are built (RIGHT) like daves, they are nice

[MeanGreenS13]

oh and ray... RWD > FWD

jk homie

[SlowS13Silvia]

yeah i sent my spare block up to mazworx to do it up, i really dont want a beast like daves but i am looking for 400hp.

[JDogg95]

Need a Z32 transmission Eric? Got one CHEAP!

[MeanGreenS13]

SR can easily do 400whp on stock bottom end (fresh or old) with upgraded valvetrain

[JDogg95]

Ive seen 550 on the stock bottom with a CP Piston upgrade but stock connecting rods.

[SlowS13Silvia]

ok well lets say i have two engines but neither have good compression, so therefore a build is needed. i dont really care what power i make, i just dont want to risk blowing anything when im playing.

[SlowS13Silvia]

and also im gonna wait till my transmission hits the dust untill i get a new one.

[JDogg95]

Was surfing around my computer and found this.I love these wheels on your car.Notice how everyone is lookin at Petey. LOL

[MeanGreenS13]

I pioneered those wheels!!!! hahah they looked great on your car eric... you should go back to 4lug haha

[JDogg95]

Anyone else going to the Vero meet tomorrow night?

[GtirSentra]

[MeanGreenS13]

[SlowS13Silvia]

[MeanGreenS13]
