afaik

Factory specs are 135-185 psi per cylinder and each cylinder being around 120 with an ~<5psi variance is decent for a >100,000km car.

Just means your car isn't in top condition, someone's had fun in it :D but it should be alright for a while (That's assuming my factory spec figures are correct)

i got mine checked it come out with all in the 120's but there all around them same  

broke that checked it said it was all good but that seems low to me is it ok

ingnore the other comments, outirght compression figures are not very relevant, as things such as how warm the engine is and battery voltage affect the outright figure.

what is important is that all figures are even, as it is unlikely that all cylinders have the same damage (if any).

usually a bad result would be say 5 cylinders having similar compression (within 3 or 4psi) and one cylinder (usually cylinder 6) having compression which is 25psi different.

as long as the figures are within about 3% from max to minimum its fine. so basically from what u explained the motor should be fine. if u really want to be sure do a leakdown test but that is usually only done if compression test turns out bad.

Knore's comment is sort of correct as most cars show compression around 155psi

they all got ok they got

1 124

2 125

3 125

4 123

5 124

6 125

is there a way to higher then compression

also i hear low compress means more lag

the tune is ****ed on the car so they r retuning the link computer the day i buy it they said thats y it is laggy and shit

they all got ok they got  

1  124

those compression figures are fine.

also the compression u are reffering to when u say it means more lag is something u cannot change. what u are reffering to is the compression ratio, ie. the relationship between the volume of air in the cylinder when the piston is at the bottom of its stroke compared to when its at the top.

u can make it less laggy with good tuning, although with a stock turbo it shouldnt be laggy either way.

    • Oh, yeah, look - here's the thing. You always replace the tensioner when you're going in there to replace a belt....under normal circumstances. You want to make sure it is good and safe, and that you don't create a reason to take the front of the bloody motor apart again. But in this case, OP is replacing a belt that has aged out on time, not usage. The belt is a million miles away from aging out on usage. The belt gets a time "limit" merely because it is made of rubber and can degrade naturally. The tensioner? Not so much. I reckon it could last forever on the current usage pattern. So I reckon if the thing is going to continue to get used at the same rate, replacing the tensioner is somewhat gratuitous. Would I replace it if I was doing it on my car right now? Hell yes. Because my car does 10-20 thousand kays a year. So it's all going to be the same thrashedness. Would I YOLO it on OP's car. More than likely.
    • I dunno. I think any one of those from each side to sump is probably enough. Remember - this is about creating a path for gas flow up from the sump to the cam covers. That gas flow then has to leave via the lines to the catch can. There's probably little point in providing 100% more capacity from sump up to covers cf. what you have from there to the catch can. Put in the 3 convenient ones? Any which way that you see fit. That'd be my thoughts.
    • Getting holes drilled into to cam covers and AN10 fitting welded on. My sump has 2x AN10 fittings on it already. These are the options I have come up with that can be done without needing to remove the sump to add more fittings. In all options front of passenger side cover connects to VCT head drain bung (i know this isn't the best spot but my feeling is it must do something). Option 1 (pink). The back of each cam covers gets its own line to sump. Option 2 (blue). The back of each cam covers are linked and share a line to sump. The front of drivers side gets its own line. Option 3 (Black). Drivers side are Tee'd together and share a line to the sump. Passenger side rear gets its one line to the sump.
    • I'd be surprised if Nissan doesn't mention it in the manual as it seems unlikely that a tensioner is going to last 200,000km.
    • Tapin,    So got mine up and realize a few things. First was my slave line doesn’t reach the other side, so I have to get a longer hose made. I want to ask did you have to extend your wires for the CD009 sensors? One on the driver side(right side of car looking at the car from the rear) and one on the passenger side( the left side of car from rear). And do you know what those two sensors are respectively? I know it’s not Speedo since we talked on this already. And I may have to separate the trans again to swap out throw out bearing. We will see. Did you run your RB slave cylinder? I know you cracked your original but replaced it with a nismo. But wasn’t sure if you bought the one designed for the CD009 or not. Thanks
