Solid Nissan KA24DE Budget Build!

[@vegeta1857]

​@Votive Stock KAs made 150HP maybe. Stock 4 cylinders now make over 200, 6s make well over 300. C6 corvettes can be bought in the teens in decent condition, Mustangs now have independent rear suspension and both can slide with little modification. This age is a golden age also! Enjoy it! You have to be in front of the curve like we did in the 2000s with these cars. Lots of fun to be had for the same prices and 20 year newer cars.

I built one back in 2009 for my S14 just to be different than everyone else who swapped them out for sr20s. We called it the truck motor since it came in Nissan trucks in America.

[@user-fk6id7qs6r]

in my early years, the biggest reason i swapped in a sr was there was no support for the KA's and they were more expensive to build. now obviously SR swaps were never "cheap" (2007) but it was easier to get a stock SR and swap it over then build over time, versus the huge upfront task of building your KA. And again, i think there was like 2 routes everyone went witht the KA's at the time, where as the SR was endless options

in 2011 I had a 91 coupe. Rock Auto was having a clearance on a set of 1990 sohc KA pistons and rings for $65 shipped and somehow out of everyone in the US I managed to get the last set. After a full rebuild and a refreshed crosshatch, I was running I/H/E and after the break in we hit 10.2 in the 1/8 which wasn't bad at all for a 465 power mod. it was at least 20% better through the whole band. ofc that could have been much better with adj sprockets and a tune. I did blow the headgasket about 6 months later, so that was fixed and it ran fine after that. I have no idea what that looked like on the map, but it was most likely running lean. That being said, I think it's fair for me to say that once tuned, it's a nice way to get a modest boost of power without going turbo and it definitely was fun on the backroads/togue. Not really a good engine for drifting though.
