different types of ka engines

[kenwood guy]

now im confused about which ka engine to tune is it true that the 89-94 models 95-96 and the 97-98 have different types of ka engines??? I dont want to swap but I would like to tune the best ka no matter what model although in my opinion the 93 and under models seem to look better I think because of the trick headlights.... I dont know

[logik23]

89-90 have a SOHC KA24E
91-98 have a DOHC KA24DE
We have been over this many, many, MANY times!
The only difference is that 96-98 have OBD-II, but it's not exactly a performance upgrade.

sorry about that I just needed to know and besides this is your first time telling me so how can you say "We have been over this many, many, MANY times!"?? anyway I could grab a 93 and be ok right??

You can buy a 89 and be "all right" a 93 would be "somewhat better".

what he means is there are many posts EXACTLY like this one. Not that we have told YOU many many times before. dont take everything so personal man.

the 95 is cool to I just cannot make up my mind

[nissanfanatic]

yes.

89-90 SOHC
91-94 DOHC ODBI
95 DOHC ODBI I list this different because you could use this engine in a S13
96-98 DOHC ODBII

You don't really want ODBII

[kenwood guy]

why??

[nissanfanatic]

If you get the S13, you can't swap a ODBII engine in without the ECU and putting a bung in the exhaust for the other O2 sensor. If you turbo, you would probably be better off buying a kit too, which I am not a fan of.(expensive)
