GSR Compression?
 

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?

RE: GSR Compression?
 

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

RE: GSR Compression?
 

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

RE: GSR Compression?
 

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.
