Anyone out there with a twin cam 240SX (S13) in Houston? I've been reinstalling the KA motor back in my ITS race car, but since it's been out so long, and I've removed the EGR system, I can't remember or figure out where the vacuum hoses go. The vacuum diagram from the factory service manual leaves a little to be desired.

If anyone has a similar car, I'd like to poke around under the hood and see where things go. I'm only in town during the week so if you're available week days after work, and don't mind me checking out your ride, send me an e-mail at [email protected].

ITS debut is set for the first weekend in March at Road Atlanta. I hope I can get the engine to run right.

Thanks.:help

Wish I could help, my uncle just came through town with his S13 and is gone now, and I used to live in Atlanta and still have friends there, but I dont think they would want some stranger coming up and looking at their engine. I know i am not the only one on this forum that lives in Houston. Sorry, hope you find somebody.

I know of many S14s but their EGR and vacuum diagrams are totally different.

Since there don't seem to be any 240SX.org members in Houston, are there any members in Atlanta who would be interested in letting me see how their hoses and vacuum lines are routed? I'm available weekends in Atlanta (weekdays in Houston).

I've built an ITS 240SX and with the amount of time to build the motor (a year) and the mods allowed in ITS (no EGR and Injen intake) I'm having problems deciphering the vacuum line routing in the manual. If you have an S-13 with a KA24DE, I'd like to take a few minutes of your time to see where the lines go. If I can get it to run right I'll be debuting it at the first Road Atlanta race in March. Post response here or send an e-mail to [email protected].

Thanks.

if you still need vacuum line info, I just pulled out a 91 DOHC and have tons of digital pics of the complete engine assembly.

Would the vacuum hose pictures be the same for a 92 ka24de??

If so, i'd be interested in the pics. I'm kinda in a big pickle with my rebuild.

Thanks Red_240sx
