Thread: I can haz VE? Yes I can!

well what were the hp figures like?

iirc but i dont because i was one contact short and was hungry.. 150's or so.

Kirru, are you revving that stock VE out to 8200 RPM on a regular basis or just for the dyno pulls? Also, do you know what you A/F ratios were above peak power?

No, pulls stopped at 7500 but I think they may have went to 8k this time. I personally never go over 7250k which is what the stock auto tachs are at. Also rev limiter set at 8k.

On the street I rarely ever hit 5k. But will of pulling out on to traffic. My next upgrade is springs and retainers and either wait for jwt cams or find n1s.

Iirc a/f was between 10.xx and 12.xx. I'll have to check the Nemu log. It was putting out a little bit of black smoke when the cams engaged I kno that much.

Doesn't look like it has smoothing enabled, basically all of the graphs look like that and dyno software needs to "clean up the static". Numbers will be a bit lower after it's smoothed though.

^ basically.

Well, I'm glad you're being cautious with it, I wouldn't want to see you float some valves. Power is falling off pretty hard after 7400 RPM with stock cams. I wouldn't mind seeing the A/F logs for the pulls, if possible.

N1's are def. nice. I can't wait to see what JWT manages to come up with later this year, for the VE. Don't forget to throw a GSpec water pump pulley on your setup (if you don't already have one). You will notice improved throttle from down low all they way up top. Underated mod for sure!

Give me your email addy. I'll send you the .tcl file for nismotronic.

I looked at it and it was between 12.xx and 14.xx but stayed mostly in the 12s.

Water pump pulley should be next. Should I have to go to a larger belt or would the one I have on there now work?

Isnt there a larger pulley that some people put on that helps a lot?

You will need a larger belt. You should be able to get one from Greg @ GSpec when you order the WP pulley. The belt number is 4pk865. This is a 'Bando' brand belt number. You can also call you loocal autoparts supplier and they would be able to cross-reference the Bando number and give you the equivalent belt but from another manufacturer. I used a different belt as well.

As far as I know, the GSpec pulley is the largest available for the water pump. It is even larger than the 'Unorthodox Racing' WP pulley.

Sending you a PM now, with my email address.

I'll probably find a Nissan belt as that is what I have access to directly.

I heard the Stanza Altima pulley was maybe a tad bigger than GSpec and UR but not sure how much bigger. Might have to see if I cant find one or order one in and see.
