Pix below of the power curve and output figures below. The curve very closely resembles what TCM shows in the Sentra brochure. The 25k km mileage engine's bone stock cept for Heat Range 6 ND Iridium plugs and a K&N drop-in element replacement filter. Figures are all at the crank.
The torque curve and output figures
As you can see from the power and torque curves there's a very pronounced dip between 3500rpm to 4000rpm. Most people actually feel this deep as a surge of power thinking the engine's VTC is like VTEC. Wahahhahaha! This proves once again that butt dyno's are only good for feeling power/torque transitions rather than gains. I have a set of Hot Bits stainless steel headers and exhaust b-piping on order. This should hopefully get me some gains and
reduce the dip in the curve...

llsaw,
Normally, how much % of drivetrain loss on manual car? 20%? Is it possible to reach you via email? I'd like to ask some questions about 4G93P.
Drivetrain losses are approx 10-15%only. Sorry but I'll rather not answer anything on the 4G93P. Have sold of the SP already for more than a year..
Muahahahhaha.....
bro, how about your A/F ratio graph?
Sorry Bro, didn't get that. It's a stock engine so I wasn't bothered.
Mr Andrew Saw---I have a 2002 Nissan Almera N16.Andrew can you please help me as i am looking for sport or adjustable shocks for it.Can you please tell me a brand that i can use.It's the same car as N16 Nissan Pulsar and G10 Bluebird Sylphy.I really need your help as you know alot about N16.
Hi Skaal2,
Are you from Europe? There are not many shocks for the N16 unfortunately but I believe beyond the M'sian & Jap brands like Tein & JIC, Koni and DMS should have an application.
pictures was not loading up so here is another comment

I really like your car and it looks tidy the way you done it I am also after some Nismo Stickers. what engine are you running a QG15DE or a QG18DE? some one has turbo charged the QG18DE and got 175bhp out of it. The same guy also has 18" alloys with 330mm front disks with Nissan QX rear hubs and Custom hubs on the front with R33 Skyline 4 Pot calipers.

Hey guys, i did some research and found that Koni has adjustable shocks for the N16 Nissan Almera.Front-8610-1409//rear-80-2838.It's Koni Sport.Thaks for the help guys. I am from trinidad and Tobago.
do you have a N16 hatch or a saloon ?
Darren
Hello Darren,
Nice car there. I'm running the QG16. Since you're in the UK any idea if Piper or Kent is willing to make some cams for The QG engine?
Hi Skaal2,
Koni Sport is a decent shock. I would say go for it!
There is not many things out for the QG engine in the UK
here is a website for some parts
http://www.motorsportworld.co.uk/framefixsbc.asp?page=3&make=NISSAN&model=ALMERA&year=2003&ProdGroup=Engine&ProdSubGroup=Cams/Kits/Accessories
I am planning to put a SR20DE or SR20DET into my car. it seems like a better option then doing any work to the QG15DE. The gearbox broke a year and a half ago and the gearbox only did 30k miles so I don't trust it anymore
In the UK the QG18DE owners can use flywheel from the SR20.
is there any parts available for the N16 in Malaysia ?
I am off there in July
E-mail me instead andrew its easier

for more info about the N16. if you have a hatch its best to go on Almera Owners Club
and if you got a saloon then the Pulsar Australia would be better. a few people from Pulsar Australia has put SR20DET's into there N16 saloon. they also show you the rear brake conversion and front brake conversion as on the N16 Hatch the disks are bigger.
Hi Darren,
I'm already a member of both forums :) Not really into engine transplants unless absolutely necessary. Have already pushed the tech barrier once with my 190hp NA Proton M21 and not going to do this again. Just want a comfy daily driver with a little more oomph than stock ;)
Also I know how to do a rear disk conversion no worries ;) The problem here is time to find a decent rear beam with disk brake assy..
thats cool then :-)
