the term is write off not ride off! now that i have that off my chest,

sr20de compared to a15... would choose sr20de due to reliability compared to a15 pushing out 14sec 1/4 miles.

sr20de compared to ca18det.... unless you sort out traction, you might as well go sr20de, as most caare luck to get 12 but heaps in 14 to 13sec bracket over 1/4 mile as no traction.

Its all relative to what you need it for. daily and fun sr20de, fun weekender ca18det.

another bonus sr20 is timing chain not timing belt, extra piece of mind there.

just wondering, what sort of compression should i be chasing my motorbikes 12.5 to one and ive ran it one normal fuel for like 5 min( wen i ran out in the bush) and it didnt make any differant noises or change it performance is this the same for a car or is it differant my dad said that 11 to 1 would be the max i could run does any one know for sure what compression i should be looking for

with big cams and that compression you should have heaps more than 120kw. Apparantly the sr20 ecu's are programmable so aftermarket isnt needed.

umm i wasnt planing to keep the motor stock .i got quotes on ca18dets $2000 with the box this cost 650 with the hole car
the car is crashed but was marked as fixabul ride off and it still drives does any one know about r30 box fitting on the sr20?

i wanna rebuilt the sr20 with compression about 12.5-1 13-1 some were around there the most i can run with 98 octain fuel
im gonna put the hot cams in , extractors , air filter and have the car gear'd to do 220 and maby do the computer but im not sure about aftermarket computers on na motors( if it really worth it) , and also i want to see it rev to at least 8000rpm my aim is 120kw at the weels with a 1/4 mile time of somewere arond the 12.5-13.5 sec mark hopefully this will be achevied with theese mods , ill have a bit more spendin money one the car now becuase its na no intercooler less inturnace less fuel the motor is 1500 cheaper will the h165 with the lsd be strong enough so u know i was planing on spending $12000 on the engine swap


ok who wanted spare's for there car and what did u want also is anyone looking for a stock a12 just rebuilt 3000km ago and manual 4 speed box and everythink else that im pullin out
yea and also a crf450r 07 ( thats were half the finances are comming from)
thanks

wiki says one N/A a15 in the 14s.

ok ok please look in the 1/4mile thread
thats where i found my info

yea if your getting a turbo ca18det well who care if the nose is heavy but if your gonna get a crossmember made motor and box get the bigger tunnel bigger brakes bigger suspension rad wireing ect ect for a high 14s car come on why do all that stuff and skimp on the motor you know you want the turbo .

as i said befor i made the mistake of going for the cheaper ca18de and was so so so so so so so so so so dissapointed lasted one week


one last dig at the sr20de think of the pulsar coff coff sr20de

i dont beleive it would make it any more nose heavy than a ca18det install.
really, if you use a sr20de with all the #### you dont need removed it would only come in a wee bit heavier and surely couldnt cost more than a ca18det.

unless ca's make the car a lead tipped arrow too.

where?

My mate had 110rwkw from a stock s13 sr20de with extractors and exhaust. I would say it would have been better in every way (except weight) than your average worked a15.

the best and only 1/4 mile times i found for a sr20de in a 1200 was a 14.6 and theres a hole heap of 1200 in the 14s with a15s so my point is why make the car so nose heavy and its a lot of $$ and mods to fit the motor

a decent standard SR20DE will put out about 125bhp at the wheels, which should be good for 14's in a 1200.
