I can not wait for my car to go to the dyno. I also have a freshly built ka.

Get a torque adapter.

Fucking insane i just saw this video on instagram todayand this was posted seven years ago

What size fuse ?

Watching this so i can do something similar with my ka24de xterra

IDK if all of this necessarily applies to the Japanese KA24DE, but on the Mexican version (Frontier and Xterra) the harmonic balancer nut can be removed with a breaker bar and the power steering belt looped over the AC compressor and the extra length wound over itself on the crank pulley. The belt's tension will keep the crank from moving. As for removing the harmonic balancer, I opted for the duck foot style of tool (also used to remove steering wheels) instead of the claw style tool used in the video. I just had to buy a couple of M6x1.0x75mm bolts and two sets of washers separately from Ace Hardware to thread into it to make it work, but afterwards the harmonic balancer popped right off the crank without much effort. The 24mm intake and exhaust cam bolts I used a cordless 1/2" impact for, and the 19mm chain center sprocket as well. The impact made quick work of it and also didn't spin, so it kept time while eliminating much of the struggle of two-wrenching it. The head bolts I used my 1/2" ratchet with a 1/2" to 3/8" adapter and 3" extension to utilize my 3/8" 10mm hex bit; I loosened them in 3 stages while following the torque pattern in reverse. I figured it would place less stress on the head instead of using the impact for that too. The casting of the 3/8" bit should be narrow enough to clear the wells to reach the bolt head, btw. The 1/2" bit on the other hand will likely be too thick to reach the bolt head at the bottom of the well. Hopefully these tips help anyone seeking to rebuild one of these engines. I learned to rebuild the KA in my 240SX when I was 16, so doing it again for my Xterra is just bringing back the familiarity of problems I've encountered before with the better tools I have now to make the job easier.

One question, why would you still use that stock fuel pump harness? Or just cuz it’s a short/small portion on that stock gauge harness safe to run those extra amps?

Do you need to put the relay in if you wire a switch in and what are the pros of having a relay

🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾

Where did you get the replacement speed sensor from ?

So can you do a nitrous system instead of turbo?

5 years late but are you running on stock pistons?

Is this just a stock ka?

I've been watching alot of your stuff in preperation for my KA build and I would love to know how yours is performing now almost 4 years later!

Mine doesn’t have the 2 capped ports most people use on the intake

Where did you have the vacuum for the blow off valve ran too before this?

Is this the same ka in the Nissan Altima?

Ik it’s an old video but It would help if someone answered. Is it better to rebuild or just buy a new engine?

So good

Why did you add add a water temp sensor doesn’t the cluster have a temp gauge ? Is because it not accurate enough ?

A misaligned head gasket does not sound good

Hey. I have the same build going on. You don’t mind could you send me links to buy OEM parts

uhm... why you didnt replace worn rattle, for illustration "Turbo Wastegate Rattle Flapper Repair Kit 03C145702L For VW Golf Jetta Passat" ... ? instead of change of replaceable part you made irreversible intervention into turbo chassis ... i like your solution because is a cheapest but how long it last? thx

Hey I really want you to see this, what size of millimeter pistons did you get?

This was a really good video showing all the steps. Wish more people’s videos were like this. Good stuff man!

I got so exited seeing the gages turn on

Hey man, thank you for the video. Helped bigtime

What would u honestly recommend which part of the wastegate on an sti vf39 Turbo, to port. Thanks meantime bud

It’s been a while since you posted this video, how are the suspension arms holding up? Have they started to rust?

Update???

Did everything hold together?

The very first step for me is a breaker bar on the harmonic balancer nut. I then turn the engine over with no coil wire attached. Then I do whatever else I want. Like timing chain or remove the engine or whatever

We need an update!!

Bolt stretching is important in building for boost

Nice bro! Where did you get the complete gasket from?

My upper chain is loose on the right side where the guide used to be. What can i do to fix it?

does it have to be a 30 amp switch ?or can it be a 40 ? for fuel pump

I hope you livin a good life bro! Thanks for making the videos a ton of respect! You've helped me out a lot. 2021 crew

So sickk

yo the car still running or what?

I don’t have a 240 I just have Datsun 521 with a ka24

I'm going MSPNP2 with my KA24E-T Hardbody. No wiring, autotune, lot's of features.

Nice job dude! I particularly appreciate that you talk like a respectable human being. I bought my s13 from Vancouver and am just about to do the rear subframe bushings on my s14.

what would you do if you stripped that idler sprocket bolt? lol i din't wanna go back to the machine shop

you dont need to cut the wire

what machine shop you go to? i'm also from the lower mainland and have been looking around

What exhaust and specs?

aint no stance pussy nigga

that kid had me rolling!!!!

did u just called them zapstrap ties?
