i got a rev up block im going to build for my 04 non rev g coupe. so what am i going to need? i already have an sts rear mount with utec but do i need a harness and rev up ecu? and the guy i got the block from is telling me to just use the non rev up heads so i dont have to worry about anything... but wont i be able to make more efficient power with rev up heads since it has vvt? my race gas goals are gonna be well over 800whp so enlighten me

 

The info you seek is out there..... search is your friend. (all my cool pics are on the other computers)

800whp + Utec =

I'm sure you will love it here. BTW, try sending Alberto or Doug a PM, they usually help the NooBs with build specs.

 

why stop at 8XX?? plus 1000wheel is sooo last year, I'd go for 1500 myself!









Words of advice, toss the utec...

 

i thought these cars had 800 whp stock ?

 

You really dont know anything. You are trying to get to 800whp and dont know anything about the motor/ecu.

Ditch the utec and buy a Haltech or HKS F Con V Pro. Matter of fact I have my F con for sale if you are interested.

 

wrong i just dont know everything about them yet... hence the questions i had a 10 second sti that i built this isnt my first rodeo... im new to nissan and the guy who im picking the block up is a master tech at nissan and hes telling me things like dont use the rev up heads and if i do that i wont need the rev up ecu... which doesnt sound right to me... and i never said i was going to use my utec for the 800+goal i said i have an sts and utec now... we all know im not going to make 800 on a 60-1 rear mount...obviously for those power goals a full standalone will be needed


so if youre not here to help with my questions leave your dumb *** comments out

 

you can use the revup block but you need some coolant temp plug or something like that from gtm. otherwise you need the revup ecu and harness. i think the plug is like $25

 

yea i figured didnt know about the plug though thanks

 

The nissan master tech is correct. Use your current heads and you won't need all that extra stuff. BTW, sell the STS kit and buy a real FI kit with the $$ you save from not buying the revup stuff.

 

i know if i use the heads from the non rev i wont need that... but cant you make more efficient power with the vvt that the rev up heads have? im going this week to get some pricing on a custom single front mount setup

 

revup heads flow better vvt is on the newer blocks

 

damn i was told the revups had vvt... well that sucks

so how much better do they flow?

im getting the complete long block for super cheap and i want to build it and have it all complete so i have minimal down time

 

edit. i stand corrected my bad. was thinking about variable lift on intake

 

wait so do they have vvt or no? no im confused?

 

nvm i guess it doesnt
"The Rev Up motor has variable cam timing on both exhaust and intake where as in the non Rev Up is only on the intake side."

so will that even make a difference when i build the motor? with bigger cams etc? or about the same as non rev

 

most of the other questions were the wrong ones and i think you need to reserach a bit more. For starters....whats highlighted wont work for that goal

 

maybe read the thread before commenting.... already said im not using the sts or utec just syaing what i had now.... and already said how im going to get some prices on a custom front mount single... ohhh yea and already said how im going with a standalone....

 

I'm a noob here also but, if I were you I would save my self the flameing and conntacted GTM,Sharif ... they allready been there and know all about it.
p.s.You should look up the PowerLap ST STG 2 Kit thread in the Shop builds section.

 

the wide bodied 600rwhp who only ran 11.0? idc if i get flamed it seems more of the people on here make jokes instead of answer questions because they dont do any work to their own cars every time i read about a big build its always built by some shop start to finish... i build my own cars and im new to nissan so i want to find out some questions myself

 

PERMA Stop ****ing around in FI!!!!!
