I just joined and thought I'd say hello to everyone.

I had a 240 about 5 years ago, sold it got, into dsm's for awhile, but got a little tired of the limitations (always breaking, not exactly a handling machine) so i'm in the market for a clean 240 to tear into.

Im kinda surprised by the power people are making with the ka, i new they were a solid engine, but it seems like when i had my 95 people didn't really think they had alot of potential. I cant wait to apply some things I learned building dsm's to it.

Anyway I was just saying hello:rockon

I plan on sticking with the ka, I think it's got real potential. No knock on the sr20, I kinda like being different

Yeah, stick with the KA!! I owned a modified Buick GN, sold it and it took me 2 months to find the perfect 240. Drove 3 hours 1 way to get it. Good luck!! Hope you have an easier time than I did! It was worth it though, just wish I had the engine from the GN in here!! lol
