Alright, so my car is an '89 240sx and I’ve just recently swapped in a stock 91 ka24de. I’m also in the process of re-painting it right now. I’m still working out a few bugs, and I need to get an alignment and dyno tune, but it runs(for now :lol:) and should be completed by spring '08. I think the pics and mod list speak for themselves, and I’m probably forgetting a few things, but I’ll shut up now.
Comments, feedback and critisism welcome, as long as this doesn’t turn into another sr vs ca vs ka thread. Oh, and I don’t need to hear about how shitty the AR wheels are, I will get better wheels when i have the cash :E I’m open to wheel suggestions! Thanks for lookin

Awsome man… Just in time for winter :E lol

3

nice that turbo should be really responsive thats a good looking setup!

4

Nice set-up bug holy rust batman in the second last pic

5

Thanks for the comments guys

Looks alot worse in that pic for some reason than it really was. It was just surface rust and sanded out no problem.

6

your going to need a heat shield dude. that brake fluid is going to just cook

7

My thoughts exactly.

8

Haha, I have one but I’m going to wrap up the downpipe before I put the shield on. Clearance between the DP flange and brake lines is a cunt hair at best :lol:

It’s still a work in progress and I have a few things to do yet before its good to go.

9

That looks tight, man. Good work. :partyman:

10

Looks good dude, time for a built engine, 20 psi and 400 hp!!!

11

Thanks Flavman

I can’t decide whether to build the motor next, or upgrade the wheels/tires/brakes :?
It’s tough since I haven’t driven it in its current state yet.

12

I dont think that will be up to you to decide. Motor first :stuck_out_tongue:

Looks good tho. You should get a fan shroud from Rob and a electric fan :slight_smile:

you will see, it will pop, if you do decide to build an engine jsut buy an ams long block!

x2!!

It’ll save you a bunch of headaches and foul language. . .

Of course it’s just a matter of time before it blows :lol: The ams route seems to be the easiest and most cost effective.
