dont really know which section to post this in, but hopefully somebody can help me out.
I need the part # for ARP head studs for the KA24DE, its not in their catologue but I know they make them.
anyone know where I can find it or if they are the same as any other nissan head studs??
Are you sure they have them? I have their master catalog here (on CD) and there’s nothing listed for the KA. Only con rod bolts for SR.

don’t know the part number, but i know it is available for the ka24de as shown by the previous link. you might want to contact that supplier and ask them for the part #.
If I remember correctly the KA uses a certain generation of celica headstuds.
It’s just like with the SR, most places will sell you SR head studs but you’re really getting the VW 1.8T which retail for less.
Just looked it up, I guess the KADE studs that are being sold are really eclipse and saturn 1.8L studs.
I’d research and find the exact part number and buy them from a larger arp supplier this way they don’t get marked up an extra $30 US like most performance places would do simply because they can sell them as KA studs which are probably higher in demand.
that link doesnt have part #'s
i called ARP, they are useless.
whats this eclipse saturn thing your talking about?
Interchangeable parts pretty much.
ARP doesn’t make an application specific to what you’re looking for but there are alternatives. The headstuds from those motors use the same thread pitch and length so they work perfect. Performance shops turn around and label those studs as KA and people will pay out the ass for them.
Like for my SR I bought VW studs and saved about $30. The only difference in my situation is they actually have the SR listed as an application but they cost way more for no real reason.
wow thanks…
so if i order them and they dont work will you refund me? lol kidding
ok which celica motor is it? the one out of the late model celica?
man, there isnt any listing for a 1.8 saturn or eclipse.
where did u see this?
mine should be at my house tomorro i think i payed 210 or 220usd for main and head and can get them for you at the same price. i can get Clevite main and rod Bearings for 75. it came to a total of 320usd shipped for the bearins and bolts. and then 35cnd duty fees becaue he maked them of a value of 50$
They sell them on KA24DE.com:
http://attila.sdsu.edu/~mmikse/domains/ka24de/arp/arpka24de.htm
Maybe email them and ask if they have the part #? :dunno:
the part # is 165-5401 …I THINK
i just need verification before i order them.
The guy who got the Saturn studs ordered from ka24de.com. When he received them he cross referenced the part number and it was for a saturn. He probably got charged way more than say summit or some large supplier sells them for.
I’m not 100% on this as I never built a KA but It only makes sense since there is no listing for the KA.
