Hi guys

The name's Keenan. I am from a little place called Cape Town all the way in South Africa.

Thought I'd join the forum after I was lead here while doing some brake upgrade searching. 

I drive a Neptune Blue Metallic Nissan N14 hatch (it's called a Sabre 200Gxi here in South Africa) with a SR20DE heart in the bay.
Car is still fairly standard apart from the usual breathing mods. 

I've attached some pictures of the old gal and added some specs below.

-63mm exhaust
-RSR Performance header
-poly suspension bushes
-poly engine mountings
-lightened flywheel
-8500rpm crystal on the stock ecu

Next mods to come:

-264/272 degree split cams (already have these in storage just waiting for fitment)
-brake upgrade
-bigger maf (also have this in storage ? )

Welcome Keenan!

I reckon that would be a blast to drive! I had a CA18DET equipped N13 pulsar at one stage, it was lots of fun!

 

Thanks PranK
I'm sure it's nothing like the n13 you had though. That must have been a real gokart.
Most n14's here have VE swaps and few DET swaps here and there so I am lagging behind quite a bit ?

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
