does anyone know if the nismo cam for the E16 engine will go into the E13?

Just look at the casting number on your head...it's located on the left side of the head to the left of the first spark plug. The nismo cam will fit a 31M 33M or 15M head.

Hi
It should fit.
So what are your plans for the e13?

fingers · May 11th, 2004, 02:48 PM

The car is/was a UK spec. N12 cherry/Pulsar. I have lowered it 35mm with Koni shockabosrbers at the back, and KYB's at the front. the interior is completley stripped with a pair of Cobra bucket seats. Engine wise, the exhaust has a custom four branch manifold and a single silencer system. the standard head has replaced with the 1.5 turbo head, and it is fed by a pair of Solex C35 carbs and Pipercross air filter.

Its quick now but could still do with a decent camshaft.

How come you Limeys get all the good stuff? (green with envy)

Wow, that engine sounds stacked...have you dyno'd it? Sounds like it should pull about 120 whp. And the camshaft will fit that head.

No i haven't had the car dyno'd yet, I'm not going to bother untill I have a cam fitted. It is vary quick though, eats most motors but it does drink fuel.

We don't always get the good stuff. we never had a good muscle car worth having. our fuel is too bloody expensive

Does anyone know where I could get a higher cam, mine has a 280' duration but I dont know the lift, but I just want to get a bigegr one..

Dean GXE · May 12th, 2004, 07:27 AM

So is it still a 1300? Do you know you can convert it to a 1600 just by fitting a 1600 crank and conrods?
If your carbs are anything like Webers I can assure you that they can be tuned for better economy.
I think your fuel consumption will be much better with 1600 as you wont have to drive so hard to make power.

Also look into lightning the flywheel and crank pulley.

The engine is still a 1300, I dont really want to increase the engine size as I'm not really after top speed or econemy (econemy would be nice though). I'm basically after raw acceleration and 0-60 speed as it is going to be used for short distance sprints.

The fly wheel is going to be skimmed when I replace the clutch Which will be very soon as the current one is knackered

I have sourced a cam. Piper is going to re-grind my spare stock cam to fast road/race spec which should be cool.

I had it dyno'd last week cos it cracked the head and blew the gasket, and it pushes 116bhp. I'm going to run the 1/4 mile at the end of next month so watch this space.

that's some pretty good power coming from a N/A E-anything.

fingers · May 22nd, 2004, 02:16 PM

That it is, I thought the guy at the tuning center was taking the piss when he handed me the results. But then again the engine has had a lot of work, the flywheel has now been lightened too.

macakin · Jun 2nd, 2004, 11:18 PM

I posted my Schneider cam on ebay so if you guys want it go bid on it..... It is has a 280* duration 280, but I really dont remember the lift I beleive it's .460" lift, it's good from 2500 to 6500rpm..

livelyjay · Jun 3rd, 2004, 08:31 AM

How much does a regrind cost? Is it more cost effective that just getting the Nismo Euro Cam?
