Hey guys, does anyone know the stock compression of a GSR? Or where I can find out, havent had any luck yet. Cause this engine im looking into has 170 in all 4,is that bad?

 

is it all the same across the board? 170 is good does it burn oil at all or anything?

 

ya 4x170, it burn 1 litre per 2000 kms, so ya it burns like mad, but im building the engine from cams, valves, to rods, pistons, crank, all that

 

its hard to say what it should be, since it can vary by 30-50 psi, just based on different tecniques of different people, but as long as they are close to each other, they are usually good. but thats a lot of oil to burn. does it smoke? maybe valve guides.

 

not sure if it smokes, didnt ask, it has 200,000 kms on it and he wants 1500 CAD, but i think its a good deal seeing as how i will be replacing most of the parts, he said it has no cracks and runs well. Im gunna go see it before I go any further...

 

if youre planning on rebuilding it, just offer him 1200 when you get there. tell him it needs more work than you thought.
