RWD saps some power

i think a lot of it is that nissan pulls hp numbers out of its *** too(for sales reasons). 02-03 sedans are rated 260, coupes 280, z's 287, 05-06 non rev ups 280...they all have the same engine...they all dyno roughly the same.

02-06 sentra SE-R 165hp, SE-R Spec V 175hp, again same engine, the differences are attributed to higher flowing exhaust bs..just a bunch of marketing nonsense

also I think they rated the early sedans 260 because they only recomend premium but the coupe requires it...lolz

funny thing about rev ups

rev up 298hp crank 240-245whp HR 306hp crank 260-265whp... <-do want

i wanna get an hr and build it to rev to 9000..lol

 

well the hr had slightly different parts and possibly better tuning and flow..

 

point is nissan's 6-8 crank hp amounted to 20whp..lol

 

different driveshaft or flywheel??

 

neither should change the peak hp, but I'm not sure

 

Can you get an acceleration video of your car some time? I really want to see how it pulls compared to a stock DE.

 

What wheels are these?
I am looking for something similar and will take any suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

yeah i would like to see it also

 

do you mean driver view vids? if so no, the only vid capability I have is my phone which I have no way to mount anywhere. Besides, I've never understood those vids anyway, the tell you nothing in relation to the cars' performance (especially how it compares to a stock car, unless it is a racing vid and you can see the other car).

I have some old drag racing vids against modified MT sedan and coupe - but nothing against a stock car ( and the vids are several years old, the car has had many changes since then) - I can post those if that's what you are looking for...

 

Yeah I know. I believe he's said that he was to do it again he would rethink doing headers and cams.

 

^^^ your right - however, I don't necessarily regret the cams & headers, there were moderate gains - but I really dont think it's worth the cost and wouldnt necessarily recommend them without full build (which I also think is poor cost/benefit without monster FI, but then you're into price-point of a much better car anyway).

 

I bought what I'm pretty sure is a fiberglass blend body kit off of ebay about 4 years ago and almost immediately the paint started crackin.
So I'm thinking of getting a duraflex kit and I wanted to know if there is a special paint I can use to prevent the paint from crackin?

Also is there a particular type of kit that will help prevent this?

 

Bring it to reputable shop and let them handle it. They will use what products are recommended by their paint line.

 

^+1.

My shop has painted several fiberglass parts on both the G and one of my previous vehicles without any problem.

 

When Infiniti puts in a new motor for oil consumption, do they change the spark plugs or re use them?
