Re: variable valve engine comparo
if for everyday world, i dont have plans of racing it....pero siyempre minsan ayaw mo naman mapahiya sa traffic light drag...
4age 20v silver or blacktop vs. b16a/b18c vs MIVEC 4g92/6a10/6a11.
OT na kasi pag sinama ko na mga T na sikat sa pinas...sr20det,4g63t. i just want a n/a alternative na din...so dyan nalang sa mga engines tayo iikot at mag-cocompare...
mazda, walang vvt pag same year, right? T lang din: b6T, BPT...
Re: variable valve engine comparo
The only Mazda high-powered NA engine that's available is the FSZE. That's non-VVT, but it's VICS equipped. It's a 170 hp 2.0 engine, with peak power at a heady 7000 rpm (higher than the FSDE in the Lynx RS can even rev).
Nearly impossible to swap here, unless you have a Ford Lynx RS and a mechanic familiar with the FSZE. :grin:
-----
The VQ20 isn't a screamer, but it's over 160 hp, right? It should be possible to do a Sentra swap :grin:, as they've already swapped the VQ30 into the Sentra in the US (yeah, you heard right... a 225 hp V6 in a Sentra... and yes, it goes like stink)... but then, it's a very, very difficult swap.
Re: variable valve engine comparo
vq20 sa maxima ko ilalagay, swak kaya? un talaga option ko until, mom decided....pero still kung macoconvince ko mom ko, tutuloy ko project na ito.... cefiro swapped auster/maxima....tsaka na ung TT upgrade...
masyadong mahal kasi pag new motor,e....now kung makakakita ako ng manual cefiro donor, kahit hindi registered, ok na yun....
open pa rin ako sa choice ko 2-3 nalang....hindi lang kasi HP habol ko, mas particular ako sa torque, pero mas gusto ko NA...
Re: variable valve engine comparo
As always, ang problem mo lang talaga ay wiring, at kung may electrician ka na familiar sa pin-out ng engine.
But if it's the old CA20-equipped Maxima, an SR20DE or SR20DET swap is easily doable, and you won't even have to bother with shaved axles (the downfall of many SR20 swappers who are too cheap to buy original US axles for their Sentras), as the Altima axles will probably be exactly the right lengths.
After that, good body work, mags and seats... meron ka nang classic cruiser... :grin:
Re: variable valve engine comparo
yup ca20 ako... and it consumes like a v6, but only puts out like modern 1.8L..
di ko gagayahin yung nag sr20det swap na may body kits.. kung gagawin ko to stock look, dadagdag lang ako ng chins....and remove the spoiler.... is it safe to replace my undercarriage (suspension systems,etc..magagamit ko lang is ung body and interior), lets say for a series 3 sentra/cefiro?
iipon pa me konti pa...while that: tuloy pa natin discussion dito, baka makita ko kung alin mas feasible:
ang newer modified car kaysa sa old school-car, revived!
Re: variable valve engine comparo
Well, the nice thing about the CA20 is that the Maxima can still hit 200. Too bad you'll never find a road long enough to do that... :grin:
Maraming "sleeper" na Cefiro na naka RB26DETT... marami ding "sleeper" na Sentra/California (boxtype, kapanahon ng Maxima) na naka-SR20. It's a good way to go... keep the body clean, spend a little on the cosmetics.
The undercarriage, I honestly don't know, because I'm not familiar with the platform. But if you replace everything with new parts, it should stiffen up. If you're Obsessive Compulsive, you could also re-weld all the joints. That stiffens up the body and improves handling. I've seen DMF Motorsports do it to old Corollas to prepare them for drifting... kaya lang, sobrang matrabaho.
Re: variable valve engine comparo
matrabaho talaga, ung gagawa ang problema.... parts walang problem, buong series3 or buong cefiro lang ok na....sr20det madali nalang din yun...pero, coconvince ko muna si mami...kungdi corolla or civic, sentra or 323 familia(better kung 323F) or lynx ghia...
balik tayo sa VVT topic....
