Actually I'm betting on a little luck... I don't have professional measurement tools so I cant double check the engineering work... By luck it will be to spec... :)

SNAP that is exactly what I wana do, I tried to get advice on the topic RE-engineering the sx but it ended up being a sx hate topic :cry: .

Vlade so are you leaving you head STD?? Why didnt you try get the motor to rev more?? I would like to get mine to rev 7500rpm/8000rpm comfortably, or get max power there.

I'm not just doing the engine... If you read my first posts I mention the poly bushes, solid aluminum bushes and the Nismo power brace that will be built all off that will aid the car's suspension.

Strut braces and T Braces there is something brewing there... cant comment on it now 8) I am also starting to do my research in coil-overs, want a combination between drift and track... also the ease of maintainability and parts.

Received these in the post yesterday, now the fun will start, there is a crap load of work ahead... Next post will most likely be sometime next week.

I hope to have all work done by end of December... I'll be at home for some at end of December so there will be loads of time to work on the car... downside is most shops and places are closed over that period.

Again... why didnt you do any work to the head?? Why didnt you do valve springs, valves, solid ricker lifters, etc?? All of this would of aided in getting more revs :D .
