Check the tech pages under "KA24E Ticking Lifters Repair" and you'll find the writeup.

snap rings are always a pain to get out their never easy just keep trying after that they should come apart

The lifters are hydraulic which means oil pressure actually automatically controls the valve lash so you don't. The lifters should move freely and not sticks. There is no bleeding required, once the oil pressure builds up it goes through the ports. Once your lifters start ticking it one of two reasons. First they are worn and you need new rockers and poppets. Two they are seize and need to be polished with a wire wheel and a sanding barrel on the lifter.

did the rebuild of lifters took everything aparts did seefome every lil thing.. but once there stuck thay stick agin. better to just replace that go thre the time to fix it for a few week or days. in my case as soon as i touched the gas the lifter locked up agin and its realy loude. is ther another eng. or car with that same eng. i can use rockers off of. i also here u can use ajustable rocker arm. not sure where to find or if thats even true..also i would like to know from what year to what year the motors are the same . most helpfull in finding used parts from other motors.. hope some help is here and hope ive helped some one else in any of this.

also i think this is the ajustable rockers but .specs will be needed . may be a better way of handeling the problem permanitly

Malcolm Garrett Racing Engines (MGRE) located here in my home state, offer the conversion. I need to drive over there sometime to have my stock hydraulic core arms done. Basically, its more machine work and probably some welding. RealNissan sold "universal" or adjustable solid arms to work with any spec cam you were going to use. MGRE has 26 different grinds for the KA24E, so they will need to know the exact spec of the camshaft you plan to use to match to correct solid rockers arms to sell you. They also offer racing valve springs and retainers. Malcolm Garrett Jr runs the place.
