Re: drag racing...
Who ever said the 240 WAS MADE TO DRIFT!?!?!?!?
NO ONE. It is a SPORTS CAR, and like every SPORTS CAR it was designed to handle rather nicely and go fast. Unfortunatly the KA both variations the 240 came with lacked high-end power. But with enough skill you can take it to that level and use it. I've seen plenty of 240s at drag events, its an all around car, do whatever the hell you want with it, hell, its your car, do what you want, fuck the majority saying "no, its a DRIFT car you don't drag race in it!" Geez... Sometimes I wonder about this forum... -glenn Quote:

Again.
KA or SR are BOTH good for drag racing, and last I recall, people were making much better times with SR all around the WORLD. For the KA, only other car I can recall that was a stand out was Duy's S14 from Texas or whereever ran a 10 or 9 second 1/4 mile. -glenn Quote:

how come you guys seem to recommend KA for dragging, and SR for drifting...
i am not very good with imports, i'm a domestic guy. but i would like to do both, drift/drag, and wanna get a 240sx.

I guess the mindset here is that the KA has alot of low-end torque, which is good for dragging, and SR has turbo which is good for high-end power.
Which I STILL do not understand WHY everyone says this... BOTH ENGINES ARE GOOD FOR WHAT THEY DO, and they get their jobs done regardless of what they are. You just have to have the skills for this... If only Mike were here, he'd actually TELL you what he's taken out with this SOHC KA. -glenn Quote:

Id like to see somebody with a purpose built NA KA on the street that is all tricked out.
I wonder what kinda cars people can beat in a KA24DE with all the bolt ons and then some lol. I/H/E Test Pipe Pulleys Cams Grounding Kit SDS Standalone Computer Maybe even some trick intake with ITB's or such. Higher Comp Pistons Head Porting and Polishing Better Valvtrain pieces Angled Valve job with some oversized valves. I bet you would be around 190-210rwhp... in a Naturally Aspirated KA. that would be one hell of a torquey NA motor for an import lol. People have talked about it, id like to see it done. And not these Robello race Single Cams.... Id like to see someone build up a Twin Cam. you would be faster then a stock or mildly modified SR20.... A Sr20 running big boost would probably ruin your day.... but if you had a NA car like that it probably wouldn't worry you too much hehe. It would have better gas mileage and be more reliable too! I see some old 510's or even Z cars that swap in NA KA24's.... plus a finely tuned and put together Naturally Aspirated car is much nicer then a built up boost machine, they kick ass hehe  with LSD, drag radials, Shorter Gears, aftermarket clutch/flywheel/driveshaft it would be easy to hit 14's. With good driving and some lightening up I bet you could low 14's or 13's... that would be quite respectable for a 4 banger without forced induction, and territory for stomping some domestics.

i'm still working on my n/a buddy
 mine's a single cam though... does 1/4 in 15's. if i would convert it to stick and add an lsd we're already looking around a flat 14.... so there's definate possiblity for the ka n/a i wonder how a better exhaust would help my car... i have just a tip exhaust now, but ordered an hks hiper catback and a random technology hi-flow cat today..... should bring me down to mid to low 15's. and that's with an auto.

Menismo.
You're kidding right...? Sorry to break your heart but do you even have a TIME SLIP for those 15's? G-Tech does not count. You do ALL that work, including 5 speed (stock clutch and flywheel), and if you got the skill to launch and stuff, you'd more be looking at HIGH 15's or so... -glenn Quote:

you might as well save up and buy a RB25DET, better for drag racing than the ka-t or sr
if you don't know what that is its the skyline engine and has around 250-260 hp *link removed* Last edited by S13_Iketani; 06-12-2003 at 09:22 PM.

I bet a good tuned NA KA could kick a RB's ass on a small track lol...... all other things being considered equal
what some people just don't get is its not all about HP numbers....
