hey lads, jus wonderin how hard can the non turbo engine be pushed. can it be pushed to 7000 revs in every gear without encountering any problems? i presume there is a rev limiter at 7000rpm as ive encountered with my previous japs. and are there any issues with the non turbo engine?

well ive read that the cam rockers can jump out of it postion at high rev's. especially if you bounce off the limiter often... its cause the rocker are not solid lifter but are hydraulic lifters. think the RB25 skyline engines are the same..

but saying that it was the sr20det engine that has this problem.
as for the sr20de im sure it got the same rocker setup.

sr20det limiter is 7.2k...

Yeh rocker arms are pretty weak in sr20s. They tend to fail at high revs. U need at least rocker arm stoppers but I've heard of rocker arms breaking into pieces and eventually destroying the whole head.
