I think the rumours spark from this article...

attachment.php?postid=253771

In it, they go on about how the new "S16" Silvia will use the SR20VET from the X-Trail 2.0GT, with 280ps, and the XVL chassis.

They say it probably won`t be called the "S16", but the "V16" coz of the new chassis. This article came out mid-last year or so, and that pic is just the magazines guesstimations.

Its all heresay and conjecture.. there is no real S16 in design yet.. might be a few years before they come out too, if they do bother.

Japanese market is changing a fair amount in the types of cars they're producing.

no.. it wouldnt be an s13 with out an rb in it

or a skyline without a VQ35 .. :)

Good point, but doesn't matter Nissan have used the same lettering but different numbers for different models before and I'm not talking about the same platform...like the Serena C24 and the Stagea C34. In case of same numbers WG C34 Stagea and GC C34 Laurel.

Another rumour had it's links looking similar to the next Sentra SE-R...so which would you prefer...a Q16 :P...

I've given up on guessing likewise for the next GT-R...best to wait and see.

edit: FYI...the above attachment is also very old photochop of a P12 Primera minus 2 doors, lowered and widened.

SR20VET??? doesn't quite fit in right with Nissan's engine code scheme...unless theiy're dumping the DOHC and replacing it with something V which I have no idea of.

oh scrap that V is for the Neo VVL (variable valve lift)...

check this to read engine codes (Nissan) http://www.freshalloy.com/site/features/te...ome_codes.shtml

    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers 
    • The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.
