I have been bugging my buddy Aaren Smith to make some videos of his hilarious collection of cars and stuff he is working on so I could show you guys. He has this crazy 2F S13 with a built motor he has been working on forever, and he made us this quick video of how to install cams in the SR20DET and time it. I thought it would be useful for some drifting people to watch so they could repair rocker arm disasters themselves if the valves aren't broken out of the motor completely lol. Or I guess after the machine shop gives them the engine back. Oh SR20, why do we constantly have to put you back together lol.
Oh, and he is one of those super OG Mustang drifter dudes, the guy that literally got me into drifting a Mustang! Thanks for ruining me lol! - Авто та транспорт
Oh the joys of rebuilding the sr20 head when I threw a rocker....learned a lot and was a cheap fix. Exactly this process but include another 3 hours finding the rocker arm pieces and the missing shim and guide
lol
People always want to skip the cam fastening sequence, but I find it highly therapeutic, like sculpting. Im a bike mechanic and basic car mechanic (oil changes, radiator hoses, brakes, random small fixes) but ive learned that tightening sequence back in the day from truing bicycle wheels. Extremely hott video, lol.
that mustang video is my fav video on the channel, i ended up getting a mustang cause of it and hope to get out drifting it this year
Tell Aaren Smith that on facebook! That would make him smile!
Lone Star Drift I don't have a Facebook :( 21 w/o Facebook
This is pretty cool. If you guys did more informative videos on the SR20 that would be dope! It's hard to find good videos that explain things well.
Tell me exactly what you want.
Lone Star Drift I was thinking about a couple things like: -how to build the bottom end (pistons, conrons, crank, etc). -how to properly vent the motor -how to build more of the top end (you already have part of that in this video.
Lone Star Drift I'm sure I can think of more ideas later on. Those are just to start.
agreed!!
Tony Tirabassi yes I agree with all this. Its good information for people who "enjoy" building these engines lol
Great video! I just finished installing my poncams. Thank you!
Great stuff!!! Good insight. Not too many engine tech videos for Japanese engines in English. Lots in Japanese, but I don't understand much :P Thanks for posting super cool stuff and promoting cool people 👍
Damn, Arron has his own treasure trove of videos. What other stuff do you have squirrelled away?
Lol, I didn't think this would be very big on the hit list on the channel, but I like stuff like this so I just post it anyways
that's a great video and very easy to understand good job
Holy side burns ! Haha oilfield boys
Now, im stalling bc 264s and all the cam cap points line up but they not not seat properly around the sides. is that because the caps aren't tight yet?
In one of your recent videos you said (If I remember correctly) that you had a bmw e92, do you think that it would be a good drift car with basic mods? the kind of mods that your new 370z has done to it
The 370z is a hydro hand brake, coil overs, and a angle kit, that is pretty much all besides things to align it. I would say that E92 was kinda boring, but that might have just been mine. It just didn't excite me and mine was pretty shitty, so I got rid of it for something that would light my little heart on fire.
+Lone Star Drift where I live, 350z’s are pretty rare and expensive, but bmw’s are everywere and since the e46 has subrame problems, the e92 looked like the best option
Needs more cow bell
How do you people remember that stuff?
If only people realized there's a way better engine then an SR20 that can be built for less and can hold a lot of boost on stock internals. The people in Sweden and Norway have been using this engine and eventually in 5 years it will be a standard in drifting. Bye bye garbage SR :) you won't be missed
Blanco Escondido Are you talking about the saab aero engine??
PhantomFlame no sir! I'll give you a hint, it's a Mercedes engine made before year 2000
Well then would that be the 6 cylinder diesel? OM series i think its what its called?
PhantomFlame OM606 is one of the best diesel engines mercedes has ever built and I have one in my car with over half a million miles on it! But it's not the engine I was talking about. I'll just tell you. Look up M104 pumpish on UA-cam and you will see the potential! The dude lives in Sweden and his company is called turbobandit. Look into it and let me know what you think. The M104 motor can take a ton of power on stock internals. It's actually comparable and very similar to the 2jz except way cheaper. Don't tell anyone though :)
How does it compare to something like the n54?
