TUNING THE NISSAN SR20DET (Datsun)
Yet another special Datsun came to FC Tuning for more tuning work. This time the Nissan SR20DET was running a high-compression forged bottom end with water and methanol injection fitted. The goal was to make the most of the GT2871R turbo with a .64 housing.
The water/meth injection allows more aggressive ignition timing and cooling of the intake charge. Combined with the forged internals, this SR20 build can handle significantly more power and boost than a stock engine.
After the custom ECU tune, the performance was simply amazing. The only remaining challenge for this owner is axle tramp and getting grip under acceleration. The car is capable of high 11-second quarter-mile times with the right launch technique.
Good luck and enjoy. A truly impressive SR20DET Datsun build.
