How Strong is the 4G63 SOHC? How much POWER???
How Strong is the 4G63 SOHC? How much POWER???
How much power will the 4G63 SOHC take?
I've been told the VR4 block has 4 bolt mains as opposed to 2 bolt in the Starion...
Max power with...??
1. With standard pistons and rods?
2. With evo or hypereutetic pistons and VR4 rods?
3. With forged pistons and custom rods?

hmm???? Decoy...
Is that just your impression or have you had experince with these things?
I can see that piston strength is related to boost but what about...
RPM... I thought that rpm would be the biggest factor for rod strength?
What would the standard rods and bolts be good for as far as rpm is concerned???
And the combination of the boost with the rpm would influence the strength of the main caps and crank...???

Forged pistons and shot peened rods = 20psi thru a 60mm TO4 so far. Std cam, L300 intake and exhaust manifolds. 211rwhp@4300rpm with more to come.

1ST gen dsm = vr4 to u guys
I understand, from bishiboys and this site, the internals are interchangeable and the head is a bolt on. I have all the parts, but not yet verified it. I see no reason that a staz can't withstand 350Whp on stock pistons/rods. I seriously doubt the casting method or material is that much different, or at all betwwen the two. Folks in the u.s. regularly make 400whp+ on stock 7.8:1 1st gen and 8.5:1 2nd gen stock cast pistons. sohc rods are very beefy too.
I'd run like hell from hyperutectics... even if they were free.
How much power will the top end make ? I figure a simple phone call to coltspeed could answer that too. Wasn't there a site fearturing a VERY NICE 300whp sohc car - a well tuned mpi is mandatory.
They way to get power from these motors seem like some deep dark secret

Interesting posts...
Well being on a very tight budget I've decided to run an
RB25 turbo on a stock 2L SOHC with MPI Sonata w. VN Throttlebody and a Modified VN computer and some other bits and pieces
Run it to a max of 14psi and rev it to 6,000 plus and I'll let you guys know how much power it makes before she goes bang...
Then look out for the WTB... Post in the Buy & Sell forum rofl

That would be your static timing but there should be a fair bit of advance when you get it moving... maybe 25 to 30 degrees advanced or more at mid rpm and mild load etc...
We ran a stock 180sx turbo on the dyno last night. it made a whopping 74kw@rw. We check the timing and it was on 10deg @ idle. It was advanced another 5 degress to a total of 15 degrees advanced at idle and did another power run. This time it made a more respectable 96kw@rw. It's amasing what a bit of timing will do (Instant 22kw@rw) :D
And to avoid pinging back the timing off a bit even if it is at 15psi and on 98 RON (just loose a bit of power with less timing)
