Hello everyone. My name’s Kamil. I’m located in Cheektowaga, NY and I’m a total n00b to the NYSpeed forums. At 1st, I only joined to try to sell my '03 350Z. After some lurking, I’ve come to realize that this forums has lots to offer. A huge member list, lots topics and info relating to the automotive sports in NY.

Since I joined, I figured I might as well share with the NYSpeed community what I’ve been working on since last year. I present to you my project: 95 Nissan 240SX KA24DET: Power goals are to hit ~400hp for starters and work my way up from there. After the car’s done I’d like to participate in some Auto-X, time attack etc etc.

My donor - this is where it all started - a 95 Nissan 240SX. NY salt killed the underbody on it so it was time to let it go. I kept the motor, tranny, ECU and couple misc interior trim pieces and tailights. Rest was parted out/scrapped. I really miss this car ☹ Good part was, all the $ I made from the part out I used on this project so it wasn’t a complete waste. Here are two pics of my old S14.5:

Here is what’s been done to the motor to get it ready for boost:

Bottom end:

Bored .020 over and honed  
Clevite Main and Rod Bearings  
AMS Sportsman Series Rods  
Arias 8.8:1 pistons  
ARP Main Studs  
ARP 10mm Head Studs  
Balanced whole rotating assembly

Head:  
5 angle job  
Brian Crower Stage 2 Cams  
Supertech INCONEL Exhaust Valves - 0.7mm oversize  
Supertech Intake Valves - 0.5mm oversize  
OEM timing rebuild kit & using original cam sprockets  
1.5mm Cometic HG - due to resurfacing

The rest of the pictures kinda go in chronological order from the engine tear down, to the rebuild and prep work on the new S14 shell I purchased from Chantille, VA.

^ Thats what helped me get through everything! lol

I’m piecing together a turbo kit at the moment. I’ve been doing a lot of research over the past few months and here’s what I came up with for my power goal - between 380-450hp. Eventually, I’d like to start participating in time attack (if soon to be wife allows hehe) but here’s my list, please feel free to leave me comments/suggestions. I’m open to any feedback on this!

-T3/T4 turbo manifold (PeakBoost) w/ 38mm wastegate or maybe JGS, we’ll see how tight $ is  
-t3/t4 hybrid turbo- already purchased - turbine AR.63/Compressor.50  
-open dump pipe  
-Tial wastegate 38mm @ 19 psi  
-most likely a custom 3" dowpipe with yet to be determined full 3" exhaust  
-Z32 MAF  
-2.5" IC piping hot side, 2.75" cold side with yet to be determined intercooler brand and size - any suggestions for my set-up?  
-aluminium radiator  
-HKS SSQV b.o.v  
-nismo FPR or similar  
-walbro 255 fuel pump  
-Nismo thermostat  
-piecing together my own oil cooler kit  
-turbo timer  
-boost gauge  
-boost controller  
-O2 wideband  
-knock sensor light  
-AFR gauge  
-other miscelaneous gauges  
-one-piece driveshaft  
-Spec flywheel - already purchased and balanced with the crank  
-Spec Stage 3 clutch  
-stock transmission - this will be replaced after I blow it, then I’ll use my spare one, blow that one up lol and then finally I’ll swap in a Z32 transmission

Wanted to save the last part for it’s own paragraph…engine management - I plan on using Nistune. I watched the whole video that was posted on Youtube a while back:  
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjQJxWSEgHE](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjQJxWSEgHE) ,and to me, that looks like THE BEST method to tune your nissan. Of course I will not be tuning it myself. Or I might go with AEM EMS…I don’t know yet.

Thanks for reading and please feel free to add suggestions if you think I might’ve missed something over. As you can see I did a lot of homework ![http://www.ka-t.org/forums/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif](http://www.ka-t.org/forums/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif)

Nice looking build. Very clean. What injectors are you going to run? Nistune is pretty nice, especially if you get their real time board. If you are very determined on making 400whp you should get at least the stage 3+ clutch. I bought a 2+ years ago which was a 6 puck like the 3 is now, and it started slipping very badly on me once I turned my boost up. Also, have you looked into adjustable cam gears? The brian crower cams were making worse power than stock for a long time if they didn’t get adjusted properly. They might have fixed this more recently I am not sure. Good Luck with everything

I had those floormats in my Suzuki Sidekick tYpe Rrrrrrrrrrr, hello 10 years ago.

Great project. I am sure it will be rewarding to drive. Sometime I wish I had the time, but I am sure I would do something else if I had that kind of time.  
But I respect the built not bought.

i dont know much about these cars, but i like where this project is heading.

would have liked to see the metal fillers welded in instead of riveted, other then that it looks great.

> Nice looking build. Very clean. What injectors are you going to run? Nistune is pretty nice, especially if you get their real time board. If you are very determined on making 400whp you should get at least the stage 3+ clutch. I bought a 2+ years ago which was a 6 puck like the 3 is now, and it started slipping very badly on me once I turned my boost up. Also, have you looked into adjustable cam gears? The brian crower cams were making worse power than stock for a long time if they didn’t get adjusted properly. They might have fixed this more recently I am not sure. Good Luck with everything

Thanks man! I plan on using 740cc injectors to give myself a little room for upgrades down the road. The cams are stage 2 but people were having issues with the stage 3s. We’ll see how the tuning session goes. If I’ll have trouble dialing the car in, I’ll replace the stock gears with Jim Wolf adjustables.

Getting married next year, buying a house. That’s basically the reason. I’ll buy name brand parts for stages of this project but the turbo…rebuild kits cost as low as $50 for a turbo. I figured I’d get a good year out of this turbo I got now, rebuild it, sell it and upgrade to Turbonetics t3/t40e , granted I’m settled in my new house by then 😉

Me too, unfortunately a welder is one machine I have not bought yet to add to my collection…I may pay Harbour Freight a visit sometime next month for future welding hehe. You’ll never be able to see the spot I filled in unless someone was really poking their head into the engine bay deeeeeep lol. If I was doing any body work on the outside of the car, you best believe I’d be using a welder. Thanks otherwise 🙂
