Actually thats a plate on a customers Evo 8 MR... And the last number or letter is not in the pic...

I am trying to get TRBO 240 as my license plate...

Thanks and good luck! If you do it, KA record?

/Mike

I currently hold the record for most HP out of KA-T at 638 whp with the twins S13 I built a year or so ago.... but yes... I am shooting to SMASH that record with my car

Soo cool! Did you hear about the Swedish S14a SR20DET? 885 hp at 2 litres I think, superflow engine dyno. Over 3 bar!

There is a guy in puerto rico with a 700something hp ka24e. This is not the blue ventura starlet, this one is yellow and red. They used to run a short wheelie bar on it for wheelie shows as well from what I recall, the thing was insane.

I dont know if it is still around, the guy is a friend or relative of the guy that runs ventura racing in florida, and I believe that blue starlet is one of his old cars, he had 2 or 3 all with ka24e's full drag.

He hangs out with all those puerto rican oldschool datsun and mazda rx3 guys that run wankels in the nopi drags, you probably know what im talking about.

But anyways, if you hit 850 wheel then your doing pretty good

Motor looks really nice.........

How are you able to run the oil return line up away from gravity's pull and it not get oil clogged up in the oil return line??

[S14tat]

damn, not a single penny was spared when building this engine. the whole expensiveness of this setup blows the old phatka-t setup away.

[2FourTee]

Holy sh;t!!

I think those are coolant lines for the turbo...

the setup looks amazing

[The All Mighty KA-T]

Yeah, your right, i didnt see that the lines were coming out of the side of the turbo..........

[Florida240sx]

Waiting for the new record #'s

[Jookmasta]

[klattr1]

I saw some videos of it on the engine dyno.. Nice setup... I am shooting for more HP then that though...

I was trying to figure out what you might be asking... I am going to take a stab at this and assume that your thinking that the braided steel lines you see running horizontally from the turbo around the back of the motor are the oil feed and return.. These are actually water lines for the turbo... Ball bearing turbos are liquid cooled.. My return line can sort of be seen in the first picture running down from the turbo at a 45 degree angle towards the pan... I would have to stand the car on the bumper to have gravity try to push the oil back to the turbo.... but... who knows

The fabrication department at AMS is second to NOBODY!! I cant say enough how happy I am at my new home at AMS... Wait till you see what we turn out of AMS / Turbo240 for the 240sx....

[s13 240]

damn sexy

[BlackHat]

What bore are the cylinders?

That poor, poor block... It's going to be molested by that turbo...

[slickster1013]

I'm sending you my motor, all i want it a 500 or 600hp set up, so, how much you think it will be? lol

[Structure240sx]

looking great ivan, cant wait to see it in action

[Bosrudorfer]

I saw some videos of it on the engine dyno.. Nice setup... I am shooting for more HP then that though...

Plus they are different engines.. that was a SR and his is KA-T

[Musthavego]

Beautiful build!

[jEzTeR]

Be sure and enter this....http://www.wingedwarrior.net/

[frsh13]

is that intake manifold goin to be for sale through turbo240?

[EZcheese15]

Ivan, that is a freakin sweet setup. Do me a favor, and can you email me when the car is up and running with some numbers? NICO would like to do something special for you

[KATwo40]

Looks great, man. I have one question.

The Cometic gasket you're using, is it oversized, in terms of thickness? If so, was the block deck shaved to accomodate this?

Just wondering, because I know that an oversized gasket creates a knock-limited engine, and since you're shooting for the moon, you'll need to hit MBT before knock.

Looks fantastic, man. Great job!

89.5 (.020 over bore)

[n_bogie]

man just had to say nice settup and the thing looks nice. Interested to see the numbers when all is said and done. keep up the good work and it makes me cringe about being excited about hitting 200hp ka24e n/a :-(

[alex_cheetah79]

I am either going to make 1000 HP at the crank or blow the motor up trying... I am shooting for 800 WHP thru an automatic....

Wow who knew that a lousy truck engine could beat an RB . I really wanna see this car at the drag strip, could even pop a wheelie!
