Tell me about it, 750aud when he wanted to sell me the e/a15 hybrid alone for 4 grand.
I kindly said no but interested if halve of that. Not anymore though.
Just wished the new owner revealed the engine to our community to help us in case we
decided to go this way. Maybe the new owner is a speedway racer himself hence the secrecy.

The ca16de rod is interesting as some of us want to boot the A so the stock prepped rods
are too risky especially if Ca rods are cheap or free :) Albeit heavy, they can be lightened.

The rod stroke ratio of the a14 in the a12 block favors street conditions not peak rpm
but as all manufacturers have been doing of late thanks to Honda which is way below 1.55
rod stroke ratios. Nissan has the world record in modern engines with 1.43 in the torque
monster qr25de. Some sentra owners are making 200hp with free flowing exhaust only.

Yet all this modern complicated engines are so aesthetically ugly and complicated that
it makes me love the A more and more each day.
