What's up K? It would be nice if we had some kind of huge Florida meet or somewhere in between, so that most of us can get a chance to meet each other in person and talk car crap for a minute or two. How's the car running?GoofyATX240 wrote:Damn that was nice as hell.
P.s. I need to come out to florida some time ahha.
I pulled the head off the sentra for some porting and polishing, new valve springs, guides, seals, a new suspension, drilled and slotted brake rotors, steel braided brake lines, and a few other tricks I got up my sleeve. My goal is to try and get it into the 10sec. fully loaded car group. The head is back on it now, but I'm going to experiment with some different motor mounts because I keep ripping-up the stock ones. As soon as the 240 you see leaves my house, I can concentrate on finishing the white sentra, so that I can start on the red which will have that fully built engine that I did a couple of years back. Ought to be interesting.GoofyATX240 wrote:It's running pretty good. I'm going to do some more dyno/street tuning today. The funny thing is I never needed to buy cams. The motor came with some other cams I just never really paid real close attention to it haha.
We do need to have a meet though would be nice to actually hangout andbull**** haha. How's everything with your car?
You don't need a gang of money, but you have to be dedicated and plan ahead. I wish I can meet all of you guys, even the hard-heads .capwred wrote:very nice dee. i need to make the long trip one day to meet up with you and hang out.i really need to bring my car and alot of money to you and get mine up around 450rwhp.i should have 300 with the set up im going with now.but im sure im going to want more.

Dee
The 1st ones there, but the 2nd one isn't. Do what you want with it.Nowhere wrote:May I put these on streetfire?
Thanks Ryan! I definitely appreciate you guys' compliments on this because I really worked hard and I do mean hard to get this car up to big performance status. I mean this is @ 13psi of boost, softly-tuned for break-in, and without the DIS-2 which I'll probably hook-up today or tomorrow. I'm very curious to see how it hold's up @ 17,18,22,25,27 & 30psi. Those are the areas I will be tuning in and around, so stay tuned.float_6969 wrote:Looks great Dee. It's not often that you can see on a video how fast a car is. This definatly shows how fast that car is.
Congrats!
That would be nice! Or at least before more people spin bearings .capwred wrote:i say we get a meet up some where in the have way.i would love to meet all the ca guys.before the summers over.
Thanks alot, Q. I'm very confident that your little project will be something nasty as well.TheColoradoQ wrote:You guys make me feel like I'm on the other side of the world...
Great work on that car Dee!
What cut were you referring to? If you're referring to the engine, the only cuts it possibly may have experienced is is ignition cut and what is allowed by my foot. Anyways, it still a freshly built motor, so I didn't want to totally rape it as it can rev higher.jt15833 wrote:was he meaning to hit that cut in the second video? it was hard to watch
Hmmm, I'm pretty confident it will hit 9000rpm, but probably won't stay there and be effective. I do believe this thing should see some effective power up to around 8200rpm with whatever rpm delivering extra mph.capwred wrote:what do you think it can rev to?in the video you went past 8k.
The CA is starting to become a popular Florida 240 engine, huh! Or is it that we are just cheap as hell and went with the cheapest thing available .XTCshri2222 wrote:can't wait to have my CA all rebuilt, would be sweet to have a nice FL meet with all the CA people
