Somehow I knew this was a PoweredByNissan thread just by looking at the title.

Just give it time for R&D. believe it or not, be happy that the altima has the same engine, chances are what works on that car will work for us...

patience...
When you said u got the "cams" for your SE-R, did you mean camshaft or cam gears, or both?

I don't believe anyone mentioned light weight wheels yet. From what I've read we are rolling on some seriously heavy wheels.

What about a light weight battery? Anybody have any experience or info on this?

I'm sure their are many other ways to lighten this car but I prefer to keep mine basically stock in appearance.

so basically, there is nothing that can be done to the internal of the engine to make it more powerful?? If camshafts don't exists, what's lifting and pushing the pistons?
it's commonly known as a crankshaft and rods

Anyone try getting rid of the factory rims (52 lbs/wheel)? Less rotating mass.

Good points, I keeep saying to wait a few months becuase we will have cams and a ECU. With all the applications our motor is being used in theres going to be TONS of parts! Also sooner or later someone will make a turbo or SC for either the max, murano or altima

And as far as geting mid 13's with all those other mods you mentioned.. well give me another week or two and I will get mid 13's all motor on street tires.


Now get a modified intake manifold, ECU, cams, pulley set and slicks.. we will be runnign high 12's all motor.



As far as the Z manifold goes.. It really does not fit and I would need to get a funky hood made. It's just not worth it to me, atleast not right now. I do need a webpage with my info, I know.. Maybe if I stop being lazzy about it I will make a real one.

Let me understand this, you have UDP, Intake, Y-pipe, Cat, Exhaust, and that got you into the 13s? Did I miss something?
