Yeah, my younger brother has a turbo H22 Prelude and high power 2g Eclipse GSX but I always enjoyed my little '93 Altima when it had around 200whp (t25) and even now just NA bolt ons. I guess I've always been more into driving a slow car fast type of person and would go nuts having to baby the throt...

Nice job on the engine bay, I'd love to do more painting but my 2 car garage has a gas water heater and I'm too lazy to re light the pilot and mask off the entire garage lol... I had my valve cover powdercoated candy apple red w/the the Nissan letters sanded down and everything cleared but wish I'd ...

Walbro pump fakes?
Hey guys, this may sound goofy but my 4 year old Walbro pump is on the fritz (check valve shot, losing pressure) on my '93 Altima KA (running NA for now). I'm planning on getting another but I found a bunch of different forum threads talking about Walbro fakes being made and sold even in parts store...

Nice looking setup...how do you like the EDFC? My first car, an '85 Mazda 626 hatch 5spd had an OEM electronic suspension with 2 settings but after the struts ($200/strut back in the mid 90s lol) went bad, I couldn't afford to replace them back then. I've been interested in the EDFC since I read abo...

Well the O'Reilly FPR was $77 itself, so the Nissan unit was only $9 more. Actually Nissan list price was $115 but I've known the parts manager for some time so he knocked it down to 'wholesale', according to him. Credit card makes things easier lol. I actually checked around for the Nismo unit but ...

Ok just an update for any who care lol: I replaced the fuel filter and FPR with another O'Reilly Borg Warner (BWD) brand unit. install everything, prime the pump and fuel pressure hits 36lbs and then starts dropping immediately down to about 10lbs! It takes all of 1 minute to drop down to 10lbs of p...

Ok I haven't had time to change the FPR (will do this week) but did notice some more odd fuel pressure readings. Usually as soon as I shut the car off after it's run for a few minutes, the Aeromotive fuel pressure gauge shows about 40lbs or so and it takes probably 15-20minutes for it to drop below ...

Is that FI rule for those starting out/beginner class? I could see that perhaps for safety reasons but otherwise, I dunno. Especially when someone could theoretically enter with a Z06 lol and be much more dangerous or powerful than a stock SR20DE-T setup... Or maybe to prevent Turbo engines from hav...

Glad you found the problem. I really admire you guys that do this stuff in freezing weather and especially those without an indoor garage. I'm around Memphis and the other morning I went to LKQ to find an auto tranny cable bushing and it was about 32-33 (flurrying) but after an hour of searching the...

I feel for you man, I've been having a bit of the same issue with my '93 Altima project car. Car runs smooth, pulls great, idles perfect but only getting about 19.5mpg around town. I've replaced my injectors, FPR, O2, plugs/wires and Coolant Temp sensor and nothing. I even replaced the original gas ...

Just out of curiosity, will you keep the OEM 5th gear and how high will it rev at highway speeds? Or is it a track only car? I went from a 3.61FD to a 4.08FD in my Altima and my rpm jumped about 400rpm across the board but then again I'm stuck with a 4spd auto right now. Sucks for long drives hittin...

Sorry if I missed it but what ECU/tune/management are you running? Like ATL suggested, depending on OBD spec, the O2/CTS can cause real rich conditions. Also the O2 and coolant temp sensor if out of spec, may not trip a code but can really kill fuel economy as well as the coolant system/thermostat n...

Not sure offhand, I'm going to get with a friend this weekend that has a fuel pressure gauge. I'd really like to just install one inline so I don't have to fool with depressurizing the fuel system and wasting gas,etc.... I installed a Walbro 190 pump about 3 years ago. What's crazy is that as soon a...

Checked the plugs while I had just a few minutes and all 4 have the same look. Ground electrode is tan/grey, center electrode about the same, electrode porcelain is white and on all four plugs, the bottom few threads are carbon black (near the electrode/bottom of the plug). The plugs themselves have...
