yeah the concept is sweet but since they haven't been mass produced they probably arent as good as far as reliablity and such.

reason #1 that i say the SR valvetrain is inferior to the CA is that its basicly made of GLASS... **** breaks really easy if you over rev... on a CA, i hit 9300+rpm the other day and it took it like a champ, on nothing but HKS256 cams and stock everything else. INCLUDING HYDRO LIFTERS...

go do that with an SR hahaha

Hey I'm on Nico now!

BTW, I was just wondering... how often do you have to wipe off your valve cover? Cuz it seems like you jack off to it every day... lol. If you decide to get married to it I wanna be your best man!

SR-> CA

where the f*** did that come from? we werent even talking about sr valve train we were talking about those sweet new rotary valves... dude ur taking the sr raging a little far its old... and we all get that you are in love with the ca but its not all that great. Sure people call it the rb of the 4 cylinders or w/e u said but if u really wanted to make power and have a nice motor then why not get an rb since the ca is so expensive and rare anyway... which its not jgy has 3 in stock and they are less than the sr's and rbs and pretty much everything else they have in their stock.

Edit*

Didnt mean to sound like a d!ck! but its old

I'm happy to say I had the highest power SR in our area.According to people who have had a ride in my car on just 264 step 1s.I hit 8200 on an everyday basis due to wheel spin at full boost.Sure I had a valve spring upgrade but didn't have solid lifters.I still wish I could have kept it to do that upgrade and tag 550 with ease.But on the other hand I love the vert and it will be a panty dropper and rip them off when I fly by with the 2JZ power! LOL!

CA are the cheapest engine sto build... Pistons 400, rods 350-400, cams, 400, springs 250, solid lifters (STOCK FROM AN RB25 NEO ANYWHERE YOU WANT TO FIND THEM 50 bux) haha

and yes eric talking about how i called the SR inferior (only pointing to the valvetrain which no one seems to realize) and said those valve motors or whatever they are, are the top dog.

I never said the SR was a pile of ****, ill say it again there have been 3 locally that i would call BULLETPROOF, JR's, Daves and Marks. But stock for stock ill say it till i die, id take any motor with shim over bucket valvetrain design by nissan over the rocker arm engines.... They are just under developed motors.

dont worry, ill sit and argue with you all day guys. It doesnt hurt my feelings to piss others off =) right JR?

dont get me started on truck motors... they are built for longevity not going fast. His is nice as is. I say dont worry about valvetrain, keep it stock, upgrade the rods and boost 15psi and make 450whp

roller rockers dont really make that much a difference when you start bouncing them off the cam because your revving too high on stock valvetrain haha

Theyre not actually roller rockers. the rockers are set up with a rod called a cam follower that runs through the rocker arm. its used to engage the vvl which on the 20v head at high lift is about 12mm on the intake. This setup makes it impossible to pop a rocker arm off.

454 fits nice, except headers will be a *****. 350 will be a pain too because i have to swap from rear sump to front sump. im waiting to see if i can pick this other hatch up from my buddy anyway.
