Re: My Engine Is A.......

DET does not have a forged bottom end but it does have lower compression. So if this guy ya bought the car off told you it is a DET engine, he is full of sh!t. the 8.5:1 DET CR would mean the car would be gutless without a turbo.
What you have is a nice SR20DE with roughly 9.3:1 compression ratio and loves to rev.
The inlet manifold is used on the JDM Bluebirds and is basically the same design as the JDM Silvia's. The bolts on your rocker/valve cover are JDM version so very likely just an import SR20DE.
DET block differences are pistons have an oil spray onto them plus dished crown pistons(reduce compression)
It should be idling at 750rpm +/-50.
