Not stopped by for a while so had to catch up...
One word: Wow! :)

Impressive work mate, lots of shiny bits & as someone said, looks like it belongs. Hehe, the lost K11 special edition... :)

Look forward to seeing this beast up & running, but I'll have to move South if you're going to start naked driving round Sheffield!

had to make another mount/braket and tap the inlet for the air temp sensor...

you can see that with the distributer eremoved theres a nice hole for oil to come out of so i needed o block this as we as mount my new spark box, so i thought why make two things when 1 can do both :) :-

Can somebody briefly summarise this project for me, including the SR20 part :)

Edit: Just had a read and seen this sr20 is something to do with a primera!

SR20 is the begining of the engine code for a range of nissan engines :)

SR = the code for the range of the engine
20 = size of the engine IE 2.0 there are 18 (1.8) 16 (1.6) versions aswell

the full code is an SR20DE

D= double overhead cams
E= electronic fuel delivery (injection)

the SR20DE engines can be found in the almera GTi primear GT, SRI, the sunny GTi..

your going for side exit? how come..any reason or just a personal pref. id have thought you would want to keep it in the std location especially with how low your car is gonna be. surely it will be lower to the road on a side exit.

decat lok very nice indeed :)

its not realy that low.. im not having it as low as possible want ground clreaence and handeling really the centre of gravity is low anyway due to there being nothing of any significant mass above the centreline of the car anyway..
