I was wondering why you were going to go for such high CR pistons? I did a lot of research into this and decided to go for 9:0:1 for 'reliability' - but never got round to buying the pistons.

Mine got this far, would have been a 22VET as I was going for 90mm pistons and had a 91mm stroker crank (I had darton sleeves too ofc!)

I've done some HC SR/KA builds and loved the increase of power all over the RPM range so it was natural for me to make this similar. Main disadvantage will be stuck at E85 or some water spray solution later.

Yeah I was going to say, I spoke a lot to a friend who knows a hell of a lot about anything to do with engines and he explained to me how if I went for 9:0:1 it would be a better all rounder. He said how the D1 cars run very high compression ratio but they're only used for short burts during runs and they're maintained meticulously too. I was going for a street build.

Best of luck with the build dude! It's something I definitely want to do again one day. Have you seen the Bai-West 180sx on speedhunters currently? 750ps SR22VET!

I am in the process of building an SR20VET. Currently I am collecting parts and I am stuck on the fuel rail. I can't seem to find a rail that will bolt up, I am going to be running an Xcessive Intake manifold. Can someone help me out on which will work? Thanks

The stock VET fuel rail are top fed injectors I believe. I'm not sure if itll bolt onto the p11 plenum

radium says their fuel rail will bolt up to sr20ve, i ordered one but haven't installed it yet. i should have time this weekend to try it.

Good day...groundperformance...i just wanted to know if the s14 intake manifold worked without hitting the coolant sensor....after you shaved off the marked area?
