I need a new radiator for my 93 240sx Vert and i see a lot of high preformance readiators for sale that say they are for the SR...will these work with the stock ka24de using stock hoses?

Thanks,Matt

No. The upper radiator hose is on the opposite side of the upper tank between the two (KA is on our passenger side SR is on our driver side)

There are performance radiators available for a KA, but you will have to sacrifice the fan shroud, and possibly the clutch fan (I can't remember if the core is thick enough that the clutch fan would hit the radiator)
