Toon Chris Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 I my DE Although the uprev probably helps. And the oil never needs topping up between changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siman350z Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Yes, look at the redline. 6.5 for DE 7 for DE revup 7.5 for HR Is that the rev limiter or where the red starts on the dial? Reason I ask is I think my de car may have had a rev-up tune but don't know how to tell.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's called UpRev and is totally separate from the manufacturers naming of the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 I drive an 04 DE, so first generation engine, but the HR is a better engine, plus you get the extra goodies of better interior, sexy lights and power bulging bonnet The only thing the DE has over the HR is modability. More choice in intakes, plenums and plenum spacers. However, after spending all that money on upgrading the various intake system parts, you still won't have achieved the power of the HR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

addisj Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 so the only downside to ah HR is that is uses a lot of oil? My Type-R was like that and I was forever checking it. It made me paranoid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

350zedd Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 At this stage of the game surely all of this is hypothetical, if an engine has not had regular oil changes with the correct oil and been run on 95 RON fuel then it's a ticking bomb anyway. Dan is right to a point but I wouldn't want that horribly high oil consumption that an HR can give. Sent from my Zed using Nangkang tyres front, RE040's rear This is news to me.....I've never heard this before about the HR. I thought it was the 06 Rev-up engine that suffered from high oil consumption. My HR has never used a drop since I've owned her! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Never heard of a HR using oil. Rev up it can be a common issue. I did 40 in my HR and it never used any more oil than an average car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addisj Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I found this which is a pretty good thread discussing the 3 engines: http://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-drivetrain/410769-stock-de-vs-revup-vs-hr-vs-vhr-numbers.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
