daeron Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 ive read some malicious comments (rare and in good fun, of course, but shots nevertheless) about some "datsun guys" on the forum, and was putting up a defense against any flak from them. i think they may be the offraod crowd anyhow, talking about soob vs datsun in the dirt.. which is just, i suppose, since the datsun 510s and 240Zs were champion rally cars into the early 90s.... when they REALLY had no business doing so. i guess that right there is your proof for the EJ swap and abandoning the ea82 motor.... why couldnt subaru dominate in the 80s? answer: the ea82? i dunno, its a great car that I love, and i cant tell you how many times ive wished nissan had done it that way..... like the brake shoe retainer pins, thats GENIUS and im retrofitting it onto any datsun drumbrake setup i ever use from now on....

calebz Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I have a dynomax on my wagon right now. 2.5 inch from the turbo back. No cats. Between blowups, it sounds really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calebz Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 HAHAHAHAHAHAHA How many have you gone through??? Been averaging a little over one per year . Each one faster and more fun than the previous one. installing a new motor soon. Going to be nice to it and make it last a while.

jeffast Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 if someone wants to do the math for the gear ratios my friend once took my xt-6 from second gear at 7,000rpm and accidently put in in first then dumped the clutch the tach was bouncing off the bottom of the dash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beataru Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 hehe... thatl clean out any crap in that engine real good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeshoup Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 if someone wants to do the math for the gear ratios my friend once took my xt-6 from second gear at 7,000rpm and accidently put in in first then dumped the clutch the tach was bouncing off the bottom of the dash (1st gear ratio / 2nd gear ratio)*7000 = 1st gear RPM That's the equation. Now just plug in the numbers for your gears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(1st gear ratio / 2nd gear ratio)*7000 = valve float, anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeshoup Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 And his engine did go BOOM shortly after that if I'm not mistaken. They may or may not have had anything to do with each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
