hahaha...
yea, call me what you want... but you still need to keep your mouth shut when your opinion is not wanted!
and as far as me being an undeserving KA owner... so what if I am! what's it to you?
My under powered 240 (PICS)
Thee 240sx Owner wow didn't expect to get *****ed at for a fact.Since when is 155hp and 160 tq not slow...... and since when is 205hp and 203 tq fast. I NEVER SAID GET AN SR did i no i dont think that i did. If you read my other post i rave about the ka and its potential but in stock form SUCKS and that my friend is a fact. The sr in stock form isnt much better. So please dont assume any thing about people on this board. Oh ya i didnt read any further down so if you explained what you said in further detail my apologies.

edit: Morph: have you managed to push your car to where you're using all 155hp. Its not fast, but it is pretty damn quick.
Yea i do i dont like turboing an engine that wasnt designed for it b/c of things that can go wrong. And i had the money for the swap and i couldnt afford to have my car down for god knows how long with getting my engine rebuilt b/c i had 120+k on it maybe more b/c odometer was broken.
Im not saying its not quick it is and its a blast to drive but 16 seconds isn't very fast.

<---15.5.. but my 60ft is low cuz of the stock VLSD which is why i got a good time but aside from that i have no bolt ons..... except exhaust.. and all restrictions taken off the motor... advanced timing and a stage 2 clutch... with new mounts... 15.5 i think is damn good for a stock motor with minimal mods..
Can you hear it......The worlds smallest Violin.... Lol J/k but congrats on the 15.5.Thee 240sx Owner wrote:<---15.5.. but my 60ft is low cuz of the stock VLSD which is why i got a good time but aside from that i have no bolt ons..... except exhaust.. and all restrictions taken off the motor... advanced timing and a stage 2 clutch... with new mounts... 15.5 i think is damn good for a stock motor with minimal mods..
yes, I do have an SR, BUT that does not mean I have no love for KA.
for what I wanted... I figured what I needed to do and how much $$ and time I had to put into the KA and figured out FOR ME that SR is the better rout with less $$ at the end.. yes, it is more in at first but for my goal, it would be less than KA...

not really.... but you have to remember he was on 14lbs .. he had a downpipe 2.25 piped all the way through with apexi N1 and a walbro 255 and bigger injectors.. everything else was stock

I saw eric clapton play in person, does that make me an expert on guitar playing?
I dont need your acceptance to feel proud of something I built with my own two hands. The only difference between you and me is that I dont care what other people put in their engine bay. You're just making yourself and KAT community look bad by typing that kind of nonsense.

marno! never noticed u were on NICO...i'm the primered S14 from burke lake that is now wrecked 
anyways. i got an sr20 and threw away my KA like the piece of scrap metal it is! i like the sr20 because unlike my KA motor, it came from teh factory turboed and i didnt feel like rebuilding to get 230whp (which is all i wanted at the time)
so for me...155hp<205hp box stock
plus if you bolt on an IC, boost controller and a couple exhaust mods to a ka24DE (i stress the lack of a T) will you get 230whp? no...because you dont have the T...
i still have much love for the turbo KA boys..i like the way the sr20 fits in the engine bay overall anyhow...looks prettier :pface
