Wonder if anyone has any recommendations!!!

Looking to upgrade the performance of my 92 Primera GT 2.0 for track use!

It has been fully stripped out, roll cage etc.

Cannot find any sports exhausts anywhere, Janspeed do not manufacture a system any longer for the Primera.

Any ideas ?

NPOC is your friend, there are lots of threads about this type of thing on there.

IMO there is no point chasing power from a Sr20DE, you'll end up spending loads and get small gains. If you need an exhaust anyway maybe look at powerflow.

Sr20DET swap has been done quite a few times.

How much money do you want to spend??

Exhausts are easy, loads of custom exhaut shops and often cheaper than buying off the shelf. Try Power Flow. Or Jetix.

You can also easily fab up a better intake.

I'm sure you could get the heads ported and cams reground too.

Remote mount tubro?

Nitrous oxide would get my vote, easy to fit and transplant to another vehicle.

i don't know much about these but are they the same enigne as the NX2000 sold in the US? If so you can probably buy exhaust manifolds and other goodies from over there. Try ebay.com

SSA 'header' will do the job from Ebay.com....listed for Sentra/NX2000 SR20DE. Make sure it's the 2.5" collector.

Fidanza flywheel is a good mod, also a set of JWT S4 cams would be great...them with full exhaust system and filter your looking at 175bhp.

Along with some coilovers and sticky tyres it'll be a great track car.

I've got one of these built as a track car only on a S plate. Aquired it already converted, it's been stripped, caged etc. The exhaust is std apart from a tubular manifold of some description and a different back box fitted to a std centre section. From memory it's made by Remus.....or Sebring but deffinately one of those two.

It's not blindingly fast but not slow either. Will keep up with a surprising amount of stuff if you rev the arse off it. Handles well, it's running some sort of Koni kit plus sticky track tyres.

You had it on track yet?

It's relatively un-chartered waters for the SR20....There's some using GTi-R TB's in the states but I don't know of anyone of bike carbs. It's something I'd love to do.

They love to rev and have good flow rates so I don't see why they wouldn't respond well to bike carbs.
