These camshafts originally came from the Japanese spec SR16VE N1 engine, manufactured by Nissan Motor Company. These engines were built from 1997-1998 as a specially built variant of the SR16VE engine, tuned by Autech Japan and Nissan. The N1 spec engine was produced in a very limited run of approximately 1000 engines and was originally produced for the Nissan Pulsar VZR N1 automobile.

Owners of Nissan SR20VE and SR16VE powered vehicles consider the N1 camshafts a serious upgrade in performance over the regular 1.6L and 2.0L cams. The smooth ramp profile on the lobes of these cams allow the VE motor to be 'revved out' to 8500 RPM on stock springs and much higher when aftermarket valve springs/retainers are added to the mix.

Some Nissan parts distributors still sell these cams BNIB despite the fact that this N1 spec engine is no longer being produced. It is one of the cheapest power upgrades you can do to your stock SR20VE engine. Often times, you can see a gain of atleast 15 horsepower with this modification alone.

SR16VE N1 Camshafts FTMFW!!!

Nissan's SR20 engine with the VVL cylinder head. while it wasn't offered stock in any U.S. cars. it is often imported from failed Japanese inspections that said the engine was no good, when over in the U.S. it is considered brand new.

v.

1. To program a computer in a clever, virtuosic, and wizardly manner. Ordinary computer jockeys merely write programs; hacking is the domain of digital poets. Hacking is a subtle and arguably mystical art, equal parts wit and technical ability, that is rarely appreciated by non-hackers. See hacker.

2. To break into computer systems with malicious intent. This sense of the term is the one that is most commonly heard in the media, although sense 1 is much more faithful to its original meaning. Contrary to popular misconception, this sort of hacking rarely requires cleverness or exceptional technical ability; most so-called "black hat" hackers rely on brute force techniques or exploit known weaknesses and the incompetence of system administrators.

3. To jury-rig or improvise something inelegant but effective, usually as a temporary solution to a problem. See noun sense 2.

n.

1. A clever or elegant technical accomplishment, especially one with a playful or prankish bent. A clever routine in a computer program, especially one which uses tools for purposes other than those for which they were intended, might be considered a hack. Students at technical universities, such as MIT, are famous for performing elaborate hacks, such as disassembling the dean's car and then reassembling it inside his house, or turning a fourteen-story building into a giant Te...

Noun:

1) A term derived from the song "Postman," by Living Colour. The song portrays an individual who feels as if humanity, even the objects and creatures who get in his way, are torturing him with sin and monotony, and are disobeying their creator, almight God. He becomes a messanger of God's wrath and destroys humanity, a happening which is implied in the song, but never actually stated. The character portrayed in the song may actually be a postman-- which would lead one tto believe that this song is about a historical event, the mass slayings commited by psychopathing postmen-- as seen in the following verses:

"Dogs and demons, walks in my head, I'm deep under pressure"

"Heavy things in a heavy bag (possibly a mail bag), heavy thoughts on my mind"

A postman is any individual who feels as if they are being pressured by all humanity, and that they need to...
