Did you have the block machined? because theres a little wear in one cylinder wall but I didnt know if the old stock pistons would fit tight enough after having the block machined. Has anyone worked on the block before putting the pistons in??

OK man I dont even really care that much about the dyno, Im just curious about the 1/4 mile time, I know 240sx arent drag cars but its big around here and Im doing a H/C de swap in my 90 240 to so I was just wondering about what time I'll be running there are a lotta slow imports around here and the fastest NA import ran a 14.3 just curious if I could win some money at the track!!:D

High compression N/A plus a lot of bolt on's will not get you into the low 14s with a 240SX.

2400lbs (very light 240SX) plus ~170rwhp may net you a mid-to-high 14, but no 14.3.

You'd lose money...hehe.

You know i saw somewhere that an n/a ka24de altima was running a high 13.. so why couldnt a lighter 240sx do it?i like this forum much better less talk about that most dreaded srbull#$3 . I heard the same thing back in my honda days.. b16 this b16 that.. why not stick with the original.. ka24de all the way baby ;)

How does the starter hold up to high compression? Is it powerful enough to spin the engine fast enough to let it start? Have you ever seen a diesel starter? They are very beefy. Then again they have like 20:1 CR

the size of the starter has nothing to do with the compression ratio. it's the size of the flywheel. have you ever seen a flywheel from a diesel engine? pick one up and you'll see why the starter is so big.

http://www.importperformanceparts.net/I bought topline, I got pistons rings, and gasket set for about $350 I think. They were pretty fast too.
