I owne a Ka and i dont think that you should get one. Shure a ka has torque and thats nice, but its a bunch of crap what these guys say about building one up, ya, go on the internet and try to find a turbo for the Hardbody, non-existant, sure you can find em for the 240, but you get to pay twice as much as you would with the SR. There isnt that many upgrades to bring the Ka up to 450 hp, as one guy said here, trust me on it, it just dosent happen. Its a nice engine, but the SR has many more options and stuff, so go with the SR, not the Ka, unless you believe all these guys

Yeah I remembered that guy as well but didn't know his name. I still have those video's of him running a 12 something on street tires. Impressive. I thought I had heard somewhere that duy sold his car, but I wasn't sure. Oh well, it still exists and is still a VERY fast car.
Do you know if he ever got the video up of him beating the viper? I thought he said he was going to get one up soon.

hey i was just tryin to let you guys know, us over at the 4X4parts.com, which is a nissan site, dont talk about building up a ka if we want power, we talk about getting a sr20-det, now if the guys that owne the ka's are talking about getting sr's, well you know, just put it together. Ohh and yes you can find turbo's for the ka, not the truck, but yes fabricate one, and possibaly find one for the 240sx, but you got to be rich to get one, lol they cost bout twice as much as the sr turbo's. Ohh plus the sr comes with a freakin turbo, soo you know, i was just lettin you guys know, checkout the nissan site above, trust me, go with the ka if you want, but I believe the sr would give you more power for your money, and the parts are far more available than for the ka

jebus, im just tryin to let ya know, man, people who owne the ka arent staying with the ka, and pluss the s13 puts out 205hp and 203 torque stock, the ka has aroun 130 hp stock , and not sure on torque, now if you cant put in a motor yourself that sucks, or if you dont have someone to help you that knows what there doing that sucks. ka's are available to get in the US easy, yes, but I believe the sr would be a better choice, you can probably get a ka in a junk yard for around 500, and put some money into it to make it kind of fast. The thing is that the ka will produce more torque than the sr, but the sr will get you more hp for the money, and if you pick up a s13 with 205 hp, you get a trany, ecu and wiring harness, all for around 1.5-2k dollars, MY personal opinion is the SR, go with the ka if you want, its not up to me, but maybe you had better check out the 4x4parts.com site and see what the guys with the ka's are saying, it may change your mind

Remember, the SR20DET is already turbocharged, the KA24DE is not. When equipped with similar-sized turbos, the KA24 comes out on top, due in no small part to the larger displacement of the "truck motor." They're both good motors, so why mess with swapping? There was a 240SX in Sport Compact Car running 438 hp at around 20 psi. That's plenty for me on the street. Actually, 300 is enough for me, and the KA24 is definitely capable of that.

The sr is stable up to 16psi on stock internals
While the ka is only stable up to 10ps maybe 11 plus the sr would have less miles when you buy it and the ka would have more miles if you kept it new trany you would get with the sr and new ecu no new tranny with the ka, and no new ecu, dont get me wrong i like the ka, but when the guys who OWN the ka's talk about getting power, none talk about building up the ka to extremes, we just say "drop in a sr". i give up it really is up to you what to get, personally get the sr if you want to stick with the ka, youll spend alot of money on the turbo, unless you fab it yourself, cya all later, and come visit me in the 4x4parts.com forums some time where the trucks hang out, hehe :silly2: Guess thats all i got to say |
