04 RSX-S vs 240 w/ka24.

Ok, a friend of mine bought a 240 sx for 1k, it had a littel less than half of engine, and one inflated tire when he bought it. He took it to his friends shop and had him put a ka24 (yes, the truck engine) in it. He says he will leave me in the dust. I think he is a shitty driver and couldn't win a race if I skipped first. Now, say I'm wrong and he can half-way shift properly, how bad would he leave me?

I thought the KA24 was the stock 240SX engine? If so you'll wipe the floor with him like he's the new Febreeze mop .

I checked with a friend, it is the stock engine. He said he would probably beat me off the line, but in teh long run my moms carolla-s might be able to beat him.

Both the KA24E or the "faster" KA24DE will get blown out by the Type S assuming he's stock. Take him for as much money as he'll put up.

Think the 90 KA24E had the 140hp engine. But I'm not even sure it was an even 140- thought it was something like 136 or 137. Whatever- either way you're safe Swift...

psssst

ok here's how it is. I have a 95 240sx and an 03 Civic Si. and the truth is that the 95 to 98 240's come with a k24de with a stock hp rating of 150hp at the flywheel, and when it comes down to it my almost stock Si (the equivelent of a base RSX) blows the doors off of my 240. no comparison whatsoever. you'd literally win by seconds. I think the 240 runs something like 17.1 stock. And that motor responds like shit to bolt-ons, and the gains on K-series motors with simple mods are outrageous. Almost a waste of time for you to race this guy.

Re: 04 RSX-S vs 240 w/ka24.

I know that much, but if you live Cali, be prepared to have your car taken from you with the SR20. But a friend of mine was telling me that the ka24 has a stroing block and can be boosted pretty high. He is not the most knowledgable person I know, but looks into those engines more than I do.
