using cheap fuel?

washer probably fell into the oil as you drained it

cut it. With a seized tensioner I always chop the belt. Not like you're re-fitting it

and if you save your edited maps, ALWAYS make a new file so you can reverse any changes

it should be close enough to get you going, but you can see what the numbers are if you're plugged in. If TPS raw is ~35 at zero throttle, set min to 45, then see what 100% throttle TPS raw is and match it as max

if the map is for bigger injectors it will be very lean on standard ones. You also need to setup the TPS range, you can't just move it about. Every time you change the balance, you need to re-zero the TPS by keying off then on (assuming auto zero is active)

dogbone mount. It's 2 bolts, what kind of garage are you going to??? top suspension bush (top mount), anyone that can fit springs (ANY garage) should know how to do this

fairly easy, a bit tight for space, but not complicated. Top bolt on the spring part, then center allen bolt on the pivot, think its a 6mm allen key

my homemade is MUCH better than that ;) it's even bent to fit perfectly through the gap between the A/C and the inner wing

erm, no. Sounds like it's broken, in which case it's probably seized and it broken when someone tried to de-tension it. New tensioner time.

dont assume it's good for coolant!!!!! take the rad cap off and look!!!! If it was 2.5 litres down when you got it back, it was 2.5 litres down when you gave it to them ;)

do them all the way up to the stops

you dont lose oil doing this, coolant you do though. Check how much in in the rad, the bottle is an overflow header, not part of the pressure system. There's only 0.5l between min and max on the dipstick too, so dont panic quite yet. For reference, I used to charge £180 to go this conversion 4/5...

nope

just turned out of Cemetary road as i turned into it about 7.15 tonight

shocked it took 33 posts for someone to mention tyres. With good tyres, locking up is a lot harder. clio ABS is pretty decent, but it's not a deathtrap without it. Tyres are no1 IMO

can I have another drive now it's running good? :D

probably not, might do but i have a lot on at the moment

steel crank with twice as many counter weights, steel lined bores, chain driven cams, VVT, finger rocker valve-train, and everything is bigger too. Hateful engine

I'd expect so. 422s work brillaintly, they're proven. Depends on compression ratio, headwork etc also.

oh ok, well the SR20 isn't lighter than the CA18, it's HUGE

GDI = Grey Devil Industries. Performance tuning company now based as K-tec

You'd need to rev too high for the stock valve train to make use of them. Standard valves already like dropping the heads off, and hydraulic lifters fill up with air. Double the cost of the engine build to get another 5-10bhp. Not many people have pushed 422s to their peak yet TBH

nope, you asked about 423s too, found the thread already. Peak power occurs at higher RPM and low end will be compromised

dark grey turinis? cup?

de ja vu you asked this already, there's a 3 page thread on it

Alloy 300zx 4-pot bolts straight on. I have alloy r33 calipers on mine

nothing in it weight wise at all, literally nothing. SR exists for the reasons of manufacturing budget, CAs were expensive to make and hark back to the days of cash rich Nissan

FFS!!!!! it doesn't need custom lines, it needs the core of the turbo rotating. It's been done HUNDREDS of times, I've done about 50 myself
