It begins:
Just arrived from Hawaii... 3.6L 964 motor. Destined to become a 4.0L with 993 RS cams. I am keeping the FI so it is a bit more drivable than the MFI motor I have now. I actually started this years ago. I bought a 3.6, but it turned out to be unusable. But I had already bought the LN engineering pistons, cylinders, rods and stud kit to make it a 4.0. So now I get to use all that stuff!. |

Yep... Good Eye. It is an 87. I bought it from the original owner for $700.00 when his pregnant wife let the timing belt go too long. It was 4 years old at the time. It ate all 16 valves and guides. I put another $700.00 into it in machine work. It ran well over 200K after that. Then the engine blew the head gasket. The motor was the 1.6L DOHC, and parts were no longer available, because it was only made for one year. So I got creative. Now it has an JDM SR20DET from a 1991 Pulsar GTiR . (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/67.media.tumblr.com-1143-1476064163.1.jpg) The Pulsar GTiRis the Nissan answer to the Subaru WRX, and was never sold in the US. It came with a 2.0L turbo 4 that develops over 240HP driving all 4 wheels. In my Pulsar, which is much lighter than the GTiR, it uses a Setra SER limited slip 5 speed to drive the front wheels only. It will smoke the front tires in first and second. It is a real sleeper. Looks dead stock from the outside. The paint is faded and dead, then brakes are WAY too small for the motor, and the AC compressor has a blown seal. It is the alternate driver if we lose the truck or Betty's 914. I know... it is a sickness. But I really don't want a cure. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) BTW.. it is for sale if you know anyone who wants it. |
