it's a friend of mine's s14.took it to get it dyno'd @ snail conversions.the guy there said the chain is to tight and put in another chain tensioner,also took out the cas.when they started it again it made one moer of a noise and he said it's faulty lifters. my friend phoned me and a removed the tappet cover to find the teeth broken.about 10-12 of them around the sprocket.
replaced the vvt pulley with the std sr20det's.took out the lifers on the intake side,checked them and put them back with the std chain tensioner and whala,100%
