Interesting to hear that it's big down under! I'm finishing up the 100NX atm, Nismotronic is installed, so I'm gonna start tuning next week. The setup: SR20VE, 333cc injectors, Walbro 255, RE85 (effectively e75 at winter) If the injector duty cycle goes too high, I'll throw in my SR20DET 370cc...

You're absolutely right about the turbo engines, look what E85 can do with a SR20VET: For the lazy, 307hp->372hp! :eek:

Good to hear, remember at what temperature it started to be hard to start? -5*C seemed to work fine with the 50/50 mix, but perhaps not at -25*C? :p

Älä! Regarding the smell, It could be one of the headlamp connectors that is melting? When mine melted it smelled horrible :P

Update! Semi-solved! Checked that the chains were intakt by taking off the oil cap and watching that the chains spin when I spin the starter. Everything seems fine! Decided to try and roll-start it. Had a mate's audi tow me up a hill, and then we rolled it. It started after some struggling...

9.6V. Making a horrible noise.

Battery at 12.4V, good connections and grounds (cleaned them a few months ago)

Hì, Daniel here again, some of you might remember me from last years 5-page mystery, where we diagnosed a rough running K11. Now, I have another car with a different problem. The problem: This morning, I wen't to start the car, and whilst cranking, it sounded like something broke, and the...

-Weak battery (but then cranking would be hard?) -Sparkplugs -Corroded distributor cap+rotor -Ignition coil (I think there is one on the CG-engine, atleast there is one on GA and SR) -Blown main fuse?

Correct, when you run the pure E85, it eats away the hoses carrying the fuel. However, this is a long process. After looking at some swedish forums (thay've had e85 the longest), the time before the hoses split was around 5-12 years on older cars. Since I'm only running a mix,I think the hoses...

Start with the basics. Did you flood the engine? A quick tip if you flooded the engine when it didn't start, keep the accelerator pressed down 100% when cranking. This shuts off the injectors, and your engine gets to turn over and clear the excess fuel, and release the accelerator after abit...

Here in FInland, we've got a strange situation. Ethanol fuels are almost half the price compared to normal. Example: RE85: 1.04€/L 95E: 1.69€/L The large "USE ONLY WITH FLEXFUEL VEHICLES" stickers on the pumps are probably scaring away most people from experimenting with it. However, those...

WDIDT? Went into the garage, looked at my new engine: Pondered abit about how damn crazy it would be to put it into my K11, but then came to my senses and put it into the less crazy option, my B13: Still, would love to spice up my K11 with an engine swap someday...

Don't bother with an engine cleaning. Your car is too new to be that gunked up. Instead, if you haven't, give it a tune up! It's amazing how much simple things can help. When was the last time you replaced/checked: -Sparkplugs -Air filter -Oil+filter -Tire pressure (overinflate for extra mpg...

Great guide pollyp! For me, it's the other way around ;P I've spent so much time on internet forums, I can't understand finnish or swedish car terms. I just speak the english part names whenever I work on my car :p Mun suomi on aika paha, mutta läheta viesti minulle jos löydät joku vaikea...

Another Finn here; Clutch changes can be "tricky" when working on engines you aren't familiar with. That being said, the Nissan FWD motor family, GA, CG, SR are almost as easy as it gets. I removed my clutch (SR20DE) last week without any help, except the Internet. The tools I used: NOTE...

Reviving this thread due to some questions, First, I recently changed the gearbox oil on my daily -99 K11 1.0L manual. I used 3.0 liter 80W-90 oil grade. The procedure went well. Now, I'm gonna to the same on a -02 K11c 1.4L manual. Here are the questions: -How much oil am I going to use...

Yeah, there's no replacement for displacement ;) So you're up for the engine swap eh? That's kinda harsh to beginners, but if you have the space,place and time, go for it! Personally, I'd recommend beginning with simpler stuff, like sparkplug indexing, timing advance etc. Here's a nice...

Not sure if it has already been posted in this enormous thread (and pollyp has probably already read it), but here is the Nissan SR20DE Crank case ventilation fully explained: N/A...

Had a problem on my daily, this seems to be a common problem: the gearstick doesn't spring back to the middle position when shifting gears! Saw some text guides on how to fix it, and decided to document my progress. Step 1. Get said car up on ramps/jacks. I used industrial ramps. Here is a...
