[mspd#267]

first off all hello everyone! i'm thinking of trading in my car and buying a turbo altima:ylsuper i would like to know what you guy's think of, the setup the car is running.how relieable(sp) do you think it is and any thing else you would like to add.i really have no clue about turbo ka's but i've owned two altima's in the past and know that they are very good car's.this car that is forsale is running an UDP with a balanced crank i've heard some horror story's about UDP on turbo car's like, the oil pump failing etc.etc. anyway's here is the link.http://www.tamparacing.com/forums/showt ... did=117723

i'll tell you what i tell most people who want to buy premodified cars...unless you have experience with tuning/repairing modified cars, stay away from them. regardless of how extensive the list of mods someone presents to you, you'll be scratching your head wondering what to do when something goes wrong.

well i have some experience repairing modified car's but not alot.but i have alot of friend's that know alot more about repairing import's that, will give me a hand on what ever i do to, my car's.this guy said that he run's 8psi-10psi daily driven i want to know if you guy's think that is a "safe" boost to run for a daily driven turbo Ka24de with the modification's that this car has.does anybody think this car will last daily driven basicly.do you guy's think that this car's is running the right tuning to support the mod's it has?. thank you for all your comment's so far.

a stock KA24DE block can handle more boost than you think, as long as it is tuned properly. I think that altima will be just fine as a daily driver, but thats just my opinion. If you have no expierence in dealing with a modified turbo car, then you shouldnt' be driving one. just my 2 cents

Then how would you get experience? I'd say check it over well before buying it, take a REALLY knowledgeable person with you if possible, but if all checks out then go for it!

Most of the turbo vehicle's i have worked on are,diesel truck's (i have training for a diesel mechanic degree that doesn't really help me with car's tho) working on my car i have now and,friend's of mine's car's.like i said i don't have uber experience but i do have some. thank's for all the advice guy's i'm going to try and buy the altima.i'll let everyone know how that turn's out.
