BEARDED G In case you’re still wondering, your engine is the same with the exception that you have a 9.2:1 compression ratio as opposed to the 9.5:1 seen in all 240sx variants. Your engine should have the same potential as I’m about to find out for better or worse by sticking one in a s14 I am about to purchase. Nothing better than financial suicide! A turbo frontier would be a really unique build though.

The Ka24de in the 240 is not a truck motor. It’s a factory stroker 4 bangin monster that haunts sr’s in their nightmares. Just playing. Love those 2. Just because it had the same displacement as a Nissan truck engine. I’ve heard they put vq’s in minivans.

Here’s something I think Aron would like the idea of, Honda offers a drop in crate civic type r motor at a reasonable price. It’s $6700 for a complete engine with the turbo and $9000 for the complete engine with a wire-ring harness and ecu. For an engine that stock makes 300hp and can easily make 350 with just a tune it might make sense for a simple seat time car instead of adding a turbo to a 10-20 year old k20 /k24

I’ve tossed around the idea of taking the bottom half of the manifold off and putting a universal plenum straight on the upper section while shaping the left over runners into velocity stacks. Put an oversized tb on as well. Point is the stock manifold is for midrange. Loosing the bottom manifold will shorten the runners by like 4inches or so, moving the powerband higher.

4 years since this video was made, but it was still an interesting watch and a lot of what Spencer said is still true today. If anything prices have gotten significantly crazier since then... I wish I could pick his brain and get a blueprint on the perfect 1.5 level motor that he mentions near the end of the video. I currently have an S13 with a stock KA, and I'd like to get the car into the 250-300 HP range, but do I go for that 1.5 level upgrade path, or do I swap to something like a K24? SRs and other traditional swaps have gotten really expensive, and while I could technically afford to put in one of the more traditional swaps, I'm not sure if I want to sink that much money into this car which means my choices are limited. I'm nearly done with the bodywork so I won't be able to keep putting the decision off forever unless I wanna stay stock.

Ive been running dual cam KAs since 2008-9ish. Only had oem headgasket failure and one spun rod bearing. I had a single cam- my first 240 ever, back in 2006, the timing chain guide was so worn that the chain wore a whole in the water pump, and flooded the oil pan with coolant and locked the motor up. Didnt know what had happened, 16 year old at that time. But yea, Idk what power I have but its plenty to drift and super reliable. Dual Cam with light weight pullys, light weight fly wheel. I only run one belt, No power steering. Used turbo off a duramax? lol ebay manifold and fmi. oem everything, i use a FMU and with oem fuel regulator. No Tune. Maybe some day I can afford some kind of tune, and dyno. Im at 7 psi of boost. In order to run more, need a tune, injectors, pump.

Quite informative. KAs don't get much love, but it's amazing how some people and smaller companies are doing aftermarket parts for these engines. Something that should've been mentioned is the durability and stresses the factory parts can handle before they fail. It's been suggested in Facebook pages that the stock rods can handle plenty of power before failing (stock pistons would fail first). How much RPM the stock crankshaft can handle before secondary harmonics start to become a problem. I was surprised the stock oiling system is that good, with no need of an SR style aftermarket oil pan. No mention of windage trays or oil scrapers, though. I want to make a KA-DET with the Tomei turbo kit. I'd love to get my hands on a Nissan Motorsports side draft intake manifold for turbo ITB setup, but it's most likely discontinued and a rare part to find. Since it will be for a street car, it will see an occasional drag/circuit run or two. Would love to get more into this platform in order to make safe reliable power without going overboard, using OEM and aftermarket parts. If anyone can suggest me where to get the help for that, it would be much appreciated. Thanks for proving that the KA isn't "just a truck engine". Its lineage can be traced back to the L engines, and that particular engine architecture was inspired by a Mercedes-Benz inline engine. So we can say the KA has some pedigree in it's design.

My friend has a built twin cam KA that was fully built in 2010 w/a ford Mustang throttle body and he had been killing sr20det ever since I told him it's like a chevy guy pulling out a 454 cid and swapping in a 305 cid he is very glad he listened the car is still running today

Back in the day, you get an s13 redtop SR for the price of turbo kit for a KA. Lots of people thought the KA was an ugly engine. Like mentioned in this video, aftermarket was none existent for this platform. Fast forward to now a days, 4K + for an SR. You can build a very strong KA short block for that price.

As much as a turbo build would be cool, i just got done with my Dual sidedrafts on my Single cam and i love it, tuning is another subject but the sound and simplicity of it is amazing.. Been driving this truck for 15 years and as many problems ive had with mafs, ecus, and harness issues, I think having a 2 wire ignition and some beautiful webers on the side is well worth it

What manifold are you running? I know Nissan Motorsports offered one for the E and DE versions of the KA, but it's most probably discontinued and a rare piece.

Na ka sub 200hp is doable and sound great if you dont have an annoying exhaust. I love them, but more for spirited driving. My favorite honda build was a nonvtec LS that put down 176whp. We had it in an 89 4 door civic. Full suspension with azenis at 65psi. That car was scarey fun.

@@LoneStarDrift So I know a few yrs ago Tomei started to produce and release KA turbo parts like they have been for SR motors. Considering I learned fullrace makes a turbo mani for the KA as pointed out in this video and its highly recommended I was thinking in that moment how the Tomei compares in price, performance and how well designed overall it is to the full race.

If anyone wants a cheaper option for dash monitoring, you can get by using a decent OBD2 adapter and using Torque Pro. You can set alarms as well. I have it installed on my android radio. Near the ending on my ebay PCV adapter video, there is a small glimpse what it looks like on my setup.

Thanks for the very informative and great video! I'm really interested in his choice on keeping the OEM intake manifold. He mentioned there are no options that have been proven to make the same power curve as the OEM, especially in the low end range. I've always considered the Xcessive Engineering manifold to be a great option; but I'm really surprised to hear it really is not an improvement? Would love to hear more of yours or Spencer's opinion on this!
@spencermarvdashtipour3615
@spencermarvdashtipour3615 5 жыл бұрын
It's pretty simple that the stock runner length is much longer and will make better mid and low range. Plus, you couldn't pay me to put another xcessive part on my car. If I ever end up over 600, I'll probably make something.
