well porche has one nice mofo of an engine in its strainght 6 and so does BMW with their m3 straight 6 and so does nissan with the rb's and so does toyota with their 2jz....i can see some sort of trend here...

my bro's 85zx was a 3L v6 but could only make 160hp yet my old supra was a 3L straight 6 and made 200hp! and we all know there's nothing wrong with the power out of nissan engines!

holden has a ***ed up v6 as does the magna so i base all my opinions on the evidence...

If you want a real spin out..... try and find out how a "Rotary" engine works....

Yeah, that's a freaky kinda engine - what was that bloke thinking when he invented them :confused:

A couple of questions thats slightly off topic,

...

Has any car company made a V4? And would there be any savings in making one?

Yep SAAB made a V4 at the end of the 95/96 model cycle, and Lancia have been making them for decades. What a sweet little donk that is. :uh-huh:

Hehehe Lozza150, took me a while, but I finally got it!

woz the 'a real spin out' an intended pun?

Coz thats really quite nifty...

real spin out - rotary engines...

lol, boy am I slow.... n also amusing myself at the smallest things...

ford made a V4 back in the 70's for the capri, granada and transit and it was a piece of crap of a motor.

porsche never ever made an inline six. they were either a flat six, inline four, flat four or V8. :P

the Wankel roatary engine was originally a design for a water pump. ;)

    • I’m here solo don’t have any hands to help so haven’t hit it with a timing light 
    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
