Does anyone know if i can pump 87 into a JDM sr20DE n/a?

Thanks!

 

you could, but like anything else, it will run smoother with higher octane... dont sacifice your engine to save a few bucks

 

I'd say you'd want to run nothing less than 89, but yeah if you tune the timing conservatively you can run lower octane.

 

When I had an sr20de I always ran 89 and it ran fine.

Note: DE, not DET.

 

where can an SRDE from a silvia be found? two of you in this thread should be able to explain how you got a hold of one, and i`m very interested to know.

 

I live in los angeles...all sorts of things go by

I can get u a SR20 DE with engine trans and ECU for $1200+ shipping.

 

why wouldnt you want a turbo'd engine? makes no sense, you would be in the same hp range?

 

If you read l2aines old cardomain (Not sure if his new one has it) He used to have a 200sx SER which has an SR in it...And by the way not ALL silvias had DETs silly

 

Yes but my SR20DE was FWD version, just like in the Sentra SE-R and the Infiniti G20's.

Agreed - not all "JDM TYTE OMFG WOW PLAYA" Silvia was turbo.

 

sr20de motors with the higher compression that are turbo'd haul ***.

 

no no, I know about J`s (and q`s and k`s) it`s just that I`ve never seen any shops that advertise selling srde`s and I`d like to find one and do a high revving na buildup on one someday. Also, I have a builder friend who wants to do some mechanical innovations with the SR, as in, build a hybrid of the srVet with the De block and a nice turbo and etc and see what he can make work out of all of it. It`s complicated way over my head, since I`m not an engine person, but the things it should be able to do sound interesting. I`d just like to find a J`s srde for ch33p.

 

SR20DE RWD's aren't brought in much because everyone wants the turbo part of the DET. Remember the hype.

 

I just helped out in finishing a turbo sr20de s13 swap... running 7psi, needing little tuning and no bov... we kept within a jetta GLI with $27000+ and major mods. That entire 240 cost $2700. Thing is f*cking quick
