Re: Running LPG on a import motor
Sr's are an awsum little engine what i have seen them do in drifting gave me a whole new respect for these little nissans then you have BennyBray in the 6's like ..... thats insane
to answer your question yes you can run LPG straight up no need for anything to be done internally they have massive output factory ignition so spark isnt a problem to burn the dence fuel mix required with LPG that earlier engine suffer from plus they have hardened seats already fitted due to it being an alloy head so since seat recession isnt a problem no need to run the ugly as upper cylinder lube kits .... however i wonder why you choose LPG ???? running at around a 1$ a litre now its hardly worth the effort for economy especially when you have the added drama of gas regos gas converter maintenace ect .... plus you can buy direct plug in ecu's with killa a killa Hp tune then flick the switch & hello economy mode ..... if its a registration issue ... then that sucks

sorry i just seen the "t" on the end of SRde ..... that might be harder to manage as you may need to do direct liquid injection that may suffer depending on your boost levels mmmmm & i wouldnt be to keen on putting the gas converter before the snail as that would mean a combustable mix always present in the intercooler ......

im likin your plans you havnt got an SR yet look for the "Red Top" they dont run the variable valve timing so they make for a simpler set up & tune
