Thread: '97 200sx SE-R VE Swap

Leave it to me to forget to lube up the shaft... I usually just put it in and hope for the best ha ha

We are moments away from starting, everything is in but the CV's and hubs, I'll post how it goes

they reccomend using a lithium paste that way it it wont get all boogered up from the clutch debris, generally i use a dab of bearing grease and haven't had any issues.

That's what I used, "Lithium Based Grease" everything is in, started it and there is no squeal, there's like a clanking sound so i'll figure out what that is tomorrow, then do my valve cover gasket and maybe cut a leg off my distributor and I should be good to go!

your distributors on without the leg bein cut off? thats not good..

Hmm interesting

fucked up cam shaft

my thoughts exactly..

not to mention the pool of oil that should be leaking out..

The only way i could get it to run was putting a bolt through the top mount on the dizzy and changing the spark plug wires per cylinder so I believe I have Cylinder 1 going to 2 on the cap, 2 to 3, 3 to 4, and 4 to 1 because when I first put it on I was 180° off, this was the closest I could get it for now

I'll take a picture of it when I get home, there's no way exhaust cam is effected

lol

i know all about makin b14 distributors work for ve's .. you shouldn't cut corners.. for obvious reasons.. lol

not sure if i showed you this already, but it could be very helpful.. http://www.sr20-forum.com/vvl/44960-frankenstein-distributor.html

My VE dizzy was shipped to me broken :/ I'm guessing people just cut the bottom leg off but I'm still a little confused as to how they get the clip to fit with the VVL solenoids in the way?
