I searched SR20forum.com and everyone says that the SR16 redlines at 8.2K. I was just wondering if there is a different version beside the N1. I was playing Gran Turismo 2 and you can buy a '98 Nissan Sunny VZ-R. From the specs it looks like it has an SR16VE. 1598cc, 172hp, 12(?)tq. But when you race it, the redline is clearly at 9000rpm. If there is a version that redlines at 9k, I want it!
some of the redlines in the GT series are off by a little, dunno. in reality i think i'd be scared. when i rode in my friends CRX and it hit 8k (b16) i could swear i was gonna catch a piece of flywheel to the chest, be neat to explain the scar tho.
it frevs to just over 8200 and although it might worry some it puts a smile on my face. B16's SR16's they are all made for these revs so why not use them, thats the way i look at things.
Took my friends VTI crx out last night B16 engine(running 163 HP), the only dif between our cars is that his power delivery comes in at 6 great fun to drive. I ended up racing him in the pulsar
I had me and my friend and my car already weights about 300 Kg's more then his plus his is stripped out and he pulls about 2-3 car lengths to 100ish
Now i think taking my friend out of the car will allow me to keep with him. Any passengers in my car make it suffer big time.

I've seen a vid of a mates VZR in New Zealand hitting redline and it wasnt as far as 9 grand. If I can find it I'll post up again.

you'd want to swap in the sr16 only if it had a 9000rpm redline as opposed to 8200? ricer
Ok now, no need for name calling. Simply the reason I would want I redline so high is for a higher exit speed of each gear. 800rpm makes a BIG difference on each gear's exit speed so don't judge before you know my reasoning. And a ricer is all about show. Who's gonna SEE my redline?
This thread is pointless. Do a search on the sr20forum or something if you want to know what a real VE's redline is. Don't make conclusions of what the redline of a motor will be from a video game.
