My S13 SR20DET Prep

Post by **duffman1278** » Wed Nov 04, 2009 11:29 pm

Just hand Tighten them. If you really must torque them, then it would probably be near 10-13 ft-lbs of torque. Just give it a nice snug or else you'll cross thread or break the stud.

I have been looking at all the FSMs, The s14 SR FSM says to tighten them to

0.8-1.0 kg-m which is 5.8-7.2 Ft lbs.

The S13 SR japanese FSM Says to tighten them to

1.2-1.5 kg-m which translates to 8.6-10.8 Ft lbs.

I also looked at the FWD SR FSM and it says

0.8-1.0 kg-m as well just like the s14 sr one.

Its weird to me, why would the s13 sr have different specs than the S14 sr and the FWD sr?

Maybe the S14 one has more bolts? of smaller bolts.

Yep that's a HICAS pump. I got like three offers on brackets after posting in the "Wanting To Buy" sections on a couple of the 240SX forums. Try that, you'll get a bite within days.

hey I have a sr20det in my superhicas and I have the regular pump for the sr20, but I need a hicas pump for the sr20 with the brackets as well, I was wondering if you still have them we could work something out, trade them or something. Thanks

I just made an account here on Nicoclub because of the endless information. Well i received my sr20det as a block and two large tubs of parts. Soon after i sent the block to the machine shop and put CP pistons, Eagle rods, BC: over sized valves, springs and titanium retainers as well as honed port and polish and a slight bore on the cylinders with ARP hardware all the way around. But all this nothing without knowing where all the parts in the tubs go and their proper to torque specs. finding your write up gave me the know how to complete the build i must have read it more than a hundred times. Now just waiting on a cherry picker to drop her in and all because of this write up. Thanks again!

I have 7500mi on mine and the paint still looks good.

Post by **okinawa drift** » Mon Feb 08, 2010 5:45 pm

did you guys primer it first? and also when you guys painted the alternator did you take it apart? or just paint it?

Not calling you a liar but isnt

THIS the oil line?

AND

THIS the water/coolant line?

Post by **s13-t** » Wed Mar 17, 2010 7:15 pm

haha I noticed that too but wasnt going to mention it. You are correct.

he hooked up his lines correctly but labeled them incorrectly.

the skiny line is the oil to the turbo.

Hows the the motor been running as of late? I was doing my swap the same time as you and that was 2years ago lol. My motor is still pushing but my t25 gave up on me, but the ups man brought me my brank new s15 T28 turbo tho! Cant wait til i install that!

And after all this time im still coming back to this thread to look up info lol

Post by **Dcrprz** » Sun Jun 27, 2010 11:17 am

two questions...

Where did you get just the cas cover????

Are the coolant sensors chassis specific or sr20 replacements???

Thanks in advance!!

Post by **OM3GA** » Wed Jun 30, 2010 1:04 am

Chassis specific on the coolant sensors. Buy the sensors for the year car you have.

Post by **247sxy** » Thu Jul 01, 2010 11:30 pm

Thank you! your build has helped me so much, and continues to help me!

Post by **OM3GA** » Tue Jul 06, 2010 12:05 am

One more question, where did you teflon tape the turbo lines? Where did you not use anything or where did you use a copper crush washer. Thank you

Thought I had ruined it by hitting a puddle and sucking up some water in my intercooler but I changed the oil and she fires up good as new...I'm not known for having good luck either.

I got that CAS cover off ebay for a couple bucks, they're still on there. The coolant temp sensors are the same on the KA and the SR and no problem dude.

I used that tape on the turbo drain line on the bottom if I remember correctly. I used the washers that came with the lines.

Hey, i was wondering if by chance you had a website or even nissan PN for the SR valve cover hardware? Like the washers and cap nuts?

Post by **Hijacker** » Wed Sep 29, 2010 3:47 am

All of the nuts, washers, insulators are the same as a Sentra SE-R with an SR. The studs are also the same except for the center stud. It's particular to the RWD variant and will need to be ordered through someone with access to the Japanese catalog. I thought I had written the p/n for that specific stud down somewhere, but apparently I didn't. I ordered mine through West Covina (thenismoshop.com).

Post by **positron1** » Fri Oct 01, 2010 8:22 am

Yeah, West Covina sells the valvecover hardware. I got mine from Bonehead Performance when I had my valvecover powdercoated by them.

Post by **OM3GA** » Sun Oct 03, 2010 11:49 pm

You had the S14 oil pickup as well right? How is everything going with that?

Post by **positron1** » Tue Oct 05, 2010 6:42 am

It's going great with that...no problems whatsoever.
