Hi Duane

Do you still have stock on the oil pump for the Sr20?

Hey guys have another Q will sr20de piston rings work on sr20det, are they the same and are they as strong as the det please any help would be awsome.

It will work but I would recommend that if you have the motor appart to save and fit new forged pistons with rings properly fitted. I refitted oem pistons and rings to my SR and I regret not fitting new pistons and rings. You can sometimes get new forged pistons between R5000 - R7500 (I think). If it really is not an option then fit new rings but I would rebuild with forged rods and pistons now then it is done. Rather than kicking yourself later for not having done that anyway and maybe delayed the build by some time. Also make sure you fit a good headgasket 1.1mm is the minimum but 1.5mm is much better.

Thanks pheonix s14 once again, i do have cometic 1,3mm heAd gasket and dont have the cash for forged pistons, theres a set of forged wesico pistons for 5K on gumtree brand new.

Quik question, i replaced bearings and piston rings and blocks been honed i have been doing some reading and they say that i must drive the motor in 1000miles with semi synthetic oil as it helps the piston rings seat in the block and the full synthetic prevents the rings from seating in the block, How true is this?

very true, but use a good mineral oil

Thanks for the reply man, i was thinking to use mobil1 10w40 super 2000 semi synthetic what you
Think? Or is there a better mineral oil that i must use, please any input would be usefull.

Hey guys the sr20de piston rings do not work in the sr20det not sure why but the gap of the top piston ring must be 0,3 i measured it and its 0,65 wich is way way to big, i have standard sr20det pistons the piston fits snug in the block so it couldnt be that they honed it too much any body know what piston rings i must get its urgent im sooooo fed up now!! Please any help will be appreciated greatly.

Det rings?
Midas, Nissan parts.
Perhaps getting after market pistons with rings?

Very weird that... maybe just the make. Dunno about that because I bought 1 OEM Nissan Set and 1 other brand and they were exactly the same and the ring gaps also.

Go OEM from Nissan then if you want to be 100% sure...

Find it weird aswell as im sure all std sr20det piston rings are all the same size if so im really stressing as what other option do i have as to take over size piston rings and grind it down to fit is too risky dammm man i dont know what to do 😢 can any body help me locate sr20det piston rings as nissan wants R1400 for a set of piston rings.

Hey guys i have a huge problem concerning piston ring eng gap, the nissan s14 mannual says the top piston ring end gap must be 0,30 to 0,40 now i got a set of GRANT de piston rings and i put the piston rings in the block and pushed it down with a piston to the middle of the block and measured the piston ring end gaP with a feeler gauge and it was 0,45mm iv been doing some reading and they say between 0,017"(0,43mm) and 0,019"(0,48mm) is safe now how true is this? This specs is all for sr20det.
