hey just got a rhd s13 with a sr20det black top

had a srt4 so this is way different


1st question: why does the sr20det sound almost like if it had lifter problems? i have searched n searched and even on vids they sound like that people say is normal?


2nd question: what oil and oil filter and spark plugs do i use on it? (that i can buy at autozone, advance auto parts)

3rd question: i heard theres parts from other motors that are compatable with ours, so i been thinking what happens if somday the alternator goes bad? or the starter motor? can i find a replacement at autozone? or do i have to park the car for a week+ waiting for the part to be deliver?

4th question: on the srt4 i had to run 1k+ injectors and 2 fuel pumps with -8 fuel lines to make 450-520 on e85, i heard i can get close to does numbers with a walbro, 750cc witht he sr20?


hope u guys answer some of them cuz dam i still havent gotten a straight answer anywhere i have posted it lol thanks

1st question: why does the sr20det sound almost like if it had lifter problems? i have searched n searched and even on vids they sound like that people say is normal?
- Probably has air in the hydraulic lifters. You can pop them out and bleed them to get air out. Might quieten them down some.

2nd question: what oil and oil filter and spark plugs do i use on it? (that i can buy at autozone, advance auto parts)
- If it is a black top S13 engine (meaning its older than 1993), then you can get oil filter off a 1995 Nissan Sentra SR20. Spark plugs, I always run NGK BCPR7ES, gapped down to .028.

3rd question: i heard theres parts from other motors that are compatable with ours, so i been thinking what happens if somday the alternator goes bad? or the starter motor? can i find a replacement at autozone? or do i have to park the car for a week+ waiting for the part to be deliver?
- Read the SR20 FAQs, has a break down of what you can use and RWD SR20 specific.

4th question: on the srt4 i had to run 1k+ injectors and 2 fuel pumps with -8 fuel lines to make 450-520 on e85, i heard i can get close to does numbers with a walbro, 750cc witht he sr20?
- 740cc injectors will max out around 450-480whp on these engines.


I suggest you spend some time reading the FAQs.

You just screwed the pooch even saying that sir.

[nenji01]

omg i love u fliprayzin240sx thanks lol and yea i know it must be annoying answering the same shit over n over again im sorry for being a newb xD

[iamthewinner]

Wth flip ray..

[Enna]

I am quite surprised that you answered those questions, very surprised.

[fliprayzin240sx]

I am quite surprised that you answered those questions, very surprised.

I just ate a whole fucking rack of ribs and had a 6 pack of Sam Adams Summer Ale...needless to say, I'm in a very very happy mood. On top of that, i'm back in CA for 3 wks, been eating yummy mexican food again, ie Carne Asada Super Burritos.

[iamthewinner]

To all newbs: now is the time

[iamtheyi]

lol I see why flip answered these questions :]. Those are some very powerful happiness inducers :]

Ahhhh man so jealous, one of the things I miss most about so cal, damn good carne asada. Enjoy it sir...

As for the OP I won't be so nice. I doubt u searched this man cus I know all that info on interchangable parts is on here I use it all the time when i need to get partas cus fuck remembering all the numbers and years and models and all. As for the alternator there are plenty of threads about that including several by a member named codyace where he breaks down alt upgrades and how u can use a Nissan quest alternator with a special bracket (just one example, most recent thread Ive viewed on the subject).

Since ur new and I feel like givin all u newbs shit isn't really solving anything I'm going to tell you it's probably best to spend some solid time on here for the first few weeks or so reading a lot. Then if you still have specific questions that are really unsearchable then ask

[nenji01]

yes sir been doing that this is my first sr20det and its rhd so u know O_o lol and i was makin 450whp on the srt4 at low boost so... idc if u guys dont like american cars or neons as long as its fast i like w/e u got

[TougeSR20Kid]

You will find that ppl on here aren't gonna be all oooohlala and wanna suck u off cus you own a RHD car. Congratulations ur kewl dood, but many people also have RHD and while it was rare maybe back in 2005, it just means that ur a fan boy hopping on the JDMTYTEYO bandwagon. But now that I think about it, ur 19 and from FL so I'm not suprised... It doesn't change the fact that you did NOT search this shit. If you did you would know the answer to at least three of those questions. Next time do your homework kid

Like I said, read around the FAQs first and get a handle on what works and what doesnt work. If you got a question, PM me instead of asking the same ol question in here.

Thats one thing you noobs dont understand, if you atleast attempt to search something, you actually try to read up on it but you get flooded with info and got you more confused about it...PM some of the guys who have talked about it. 99% of the time, they will answer you and actually explain it to you. I know alot of the OG premies would do that, specially me.

PS: I'm not in socal...I'm in shit hole Yuba City/Beale AFB. This place gotta be the shittiest part of CA, I'd rather be in Stockton than this shit hole. No take that back, Stockton smells like cow poo...

You should look into a California Burrito if you aren't familiar with them yet!:coold:

+10000000000... SO BOMB. Only thing better is the Cali Breakfast Burro: carne asada, french fries, eggs, sour cream, queso enchilado, and cheddar cheese. Put some tapatio on that bitch and ur in heaven :faint:

[simmode1]

Lol... Zilvia is always good for a laugh. OG flips the script, makes nice to the newb, now the trolls just look like assholes... haha

[fliprayzin240sx]

^^^If people actually attempts to read threads, I never have a problem with people reviving old threads as long as they're bumping it because they need more info. People dont even do that. Noobs would bump 6 yr old threads just to say "daTs TighT Yo!!!". Shit is the biggest thing that kills us here besides making the same thread over and over again.

[omgRWDgoodness!]

Hah, that's a good one.

[TougeSR20Kid]

Who gives a shit if SRT-4s are fast they are fwd... Cool you own a 460 whp neon awesome it's still fucking worthless cus it's front wheel drive. I use to know ppl back in the day with 300-400 hp civics and was like cool ur car can go fast in a straight line, but ill still pull on u all day in the mountains, have fun with the understeer

whoa whoa. Brochacho. Why the hate? Let's all be peaceful here :) :coold:

[TougeSR20Kid]

Im sorry but there have been way too many of these FNG "what do you think is the best way to wipe my own ass" threads on here lately... As for my previous post "brochacho" I was calm and there was very little hate going on there, trust me u'd know when and if I aim to attack and lay hate on fools... Still doesnt change the fact that SRT-4s are a stupid car and the op is most likely yet another previous fwd ricer kid hopping on the I wanna be a cool drifter guy in my Nissan Silvia bandwagon. Just one more idiot to fuck it up for the rest of us

Had an essay written... On second thought its not even worth going into, these types are just too stupid to get it

My itr will wipe the floor with ur pos, straight or corner.

Your fwd logic is retarded.

[Pinggg]

In the end of all this, were still talking about a neon. :ddog:

True, I agree and personally hate thosE

Haha ok buddy keep dreaming... Nothing screams ignorance like assuming I have a stock pos. Your Intrgra may be fast and you may have done a couple of laps around a track but my s13 is also fast, handles like a dream, and this ain't my first or second or even third rodeo guy

[iamtheyi]

Touge, I must agree with you though. Too many bandwagoners from the FWD to cewl for school crew jumping on the silvia/240 scene.

besides, that ITR comment was retarded as hell. You're on a 240/silvia/Z forum talking shit on our cars??? WTF??!?!?!

anyone can control a 200 rwhp car... move along, i would spin with MT DRs doing 60 roll races.... yeah... when u get to that lvl u can talk to me.neon or not... it would pull on 99,9% of the cars on this forum, im just asking questions cuz im unfamiliar with it and no i didnt jump on the bangwagon like u fags have been doing... i wanted a 240sx for the swap options and light chassis but got a good deal on this one, on that note thanks for the bullshit answers.

How fucking ironic, you came around here in 05...just happens to be the same year when the mad dorifto bandwagon went into effect.

Dont hate on FWDs, seen enough FWD dust the shit out of AWD cars in the mountain. Every lay out has their pros and cons...all about knowing how to use it to your advantage.

this..

the fwd, rwd, awd debate is a stupid one.. every lay out has the ability to be fast depending on driver/setup/track orientation.. for one person to say that their rwd car is better than anothers fwd is a very close minded thing to say.. the new renault megane is faster around nurburgring than a 32 gtr and faster than an e46 M3..

any car can be fast..

I love this answer. As someone who advidly Solos and Clubs Honda and Nissan, you're very right. I love both and I don't understand (sorry to use this term) the "hate" that surrounds either/or.

I have a Honda that can beat your Nissan and I have a Nissan that can beat your Honda :). On a side note, Neons look like ass :wan:

Lol itr? Really? Really? The only thing its good for is racing riced out civics with autozone hp adding stickers and chrome. I want even talk about the negative tq they make......lol

Yeah cus this is my only account, and you know so much about one person by a join date, get real dude... I bought my first 240 back in high school guy, not cus I was on the drift bandwagon, cus i dont drift and never really did, i bougt the car cus I realized the potential of RWD and the s13 chassis... True fwd can be fast but when dealing with understeer and limited turning radiuses how great are they?

Ixfxi... Let's just say I've been in this game for a lot longer than my profile says, but whatever. I'm hating because I want to hate on SRT-4s and idiots like that one "I'm the winner" guy talking about smoking me in his integra, and the op who is all about his SRT-4.

Regardless of ur intentions OP u did come in here talking like ur the shit with ur rhd Silvia you bought after owning ur 450+ hp neon, expecting us to be all ohhhh wow ur awesome... Whatever I remember being a teenager once too
