Reply With Quote114kw seems kind of small for a 2.8L VR6 motor, especially when a SR20DE (2L I4) can spit out 110kw with zorst & filter

Haha yeah thanks Tim for that advice on going without the Schrick on the first runOriginally Posted by Tim
thats not a bad number at all. I wanna see the comparison after the schrick goes on. Wont give you a huge amount up top but should see you making power a lot earlier with just a nice bit up top as wellI'm hoping that it will fill up the lag down low more than anything really I will be happy with that to be honest!

Well considering a stock VR6 was dyno'd at 98 kw at the wheels and then mine was done straight after that! And thats impossible for the SR20 engine to do that its got 105kw at the crank114kw seems kind of small for a 2.8L VR6 motor, especially when a SR20DE (2L I4) can spit out 110kw with zorst & filter
Louis the 128kw is at the flywheel not the actual rubber wheel
You lose about 30% between the engine and the wheels I have been told
Its not bad but work still needs to be done!

SR20 will indeed put out 110kw BUT at the the fly not at the wheels n: They also have poopy torque, oh, and they aren't made by VW either
I'd be fairly happy with those figures steve, unless you go big compression, major crank, rod and piston work, also major headwork you're never going to get HUGE power increases. If you want a big power increase you need to spend major $$$ in NA form or alternatively put a wheezer on it (which i must stop thinking about doing, that EIP kit is mighty tempting) Which big bore intake you looking at the ABT?

Louis SR20 is the Nissan Pulsar SSS motor which is also used in the S15s or 200s as some call them.

A little Inline-4 motor made by Nissan. Used in their Silvias, Pulsars and other stuffs.
114kw ATW still seems small though. I used to have a friend with a 1.6T mazda 323 that did 100km. A 1.6 with a weeny turbo!!

Ohh... SR20 is like our OBD1-2 kinda thing..? Wow... I knew they were quick but 110kw at the wheel ?? would power to weight be the culprit in this story. If that is true I suppose german will "argue speed is not everything." Quality and durability is the key... and just so happen a v6 was tossed in the engine bay and makes a nice noise.
Guys how does that starlet gtir rate...? apparently it's got a mini snail in it too.
Who wants to name our real jap rivals, as in the FF class stockwise, and know we shouldn't bother at the lights.
