i dont think theres a kit for it, youll probably have to fab it up yourself, or get a shop to.

but, i have a feeling your motor has a lot of miles on it. and isnt built to withstand nitrous injection.

so this topic is an overall fail.

find other ways to make power, dont cheat by getting NAWZ.

ha a late post but maybe you may read it....actually you can get a kit for your car... i have already read about ka24e with nitrous... so you can put it on your car... on ebay they have a kit its called the nos sniper kit... i was talking to my cousin that are gonna be putting mine in... mine is the sniper kit made for a v8 efi.. but they said it didn't matter... that it would still work... you could just go to a shop around your area and see what they could do for you.. its not like you cant put it on your car... i have seen people at the drags with nitrous on all types of cars... so i am pretty sure you can get a kit that will work for your car... and from what i read as long as you take the proper steps car car can handle nitrous.. it would be just like putting a turbo on your car making 75 100 horsepower... but people told me you need to get your timing retarded get colder plugs... if under a 100 shot your stock fuel set up is fine... but you need to make sure your motor is in good condition... just go to the search and type in like ka24e nitrous or something like that... or even google it... and you will see guys that have put nitrous on there ka24e...

When you install your ebay nawz you will realize he was right and you were wrong.

who said ebay nitrous... you can buy a nos sniper kit for around 320 to 350.. shipped.. if you are cheaper than that then you don't need to get nitrous... so please stop.. there are tones of people that put a good nitrous kits on there 240s and they do fine... how would it be different from a turbo kit that is gonna be adding 75 to 100 hp to your motor.. boost does harm your motor... and i am not talking about a ebay kit.. ebay has for sale the NOS sniper kit... if you knew what that was it is from the makers of NOS.. they sell the kit at tones of places but you can get the best price on it at ebay... but you didn't know what i was talking about.. do this... search 240sx nitrous or something like that.. i don't feel like talking to you on about something you are actually wrong about.. now if you got a ebay kit and didn't take the proper steps then something could go wrong but as long as you take the proper steps and don't get a "ebay" kit then you will be good... oh and i think you need to search... and you will see that you are wrong... ha

yes nos is "cheater fuel" and imo i dont think i would use it. but i have seen many a car with all stock over 150k on the clock taking the spray. as long as you have good compression,good fuel,and a proper setup you should be fine. but to each his own.

wow...nos....first..let me say..im not flaming ya down..do as you wish...thats my disclaimer...now to the beef..#1.) you stock moter will fry!..it probly has tones of milage on it and probly has no headstuds..cometic ghasket..ect..ect..so if your in the market for a new engine....well then have fun pop'in the old head off the block:)...#2.) You might want to get some kind of professional driving training for handling speed before you use it!..or try it at a track so at least someone can rescue you when ya crash..and last but not least...most people forget the one thing needed before the horse power adders{ the suspention}..if ya cant handle the speed then why spray!...point being man..dont spray unless your traind on how to handle the speed and dont do a shoddy build for speed if your underside isent prepped for it to handle the sudden burst of power and stay on the raod..good luck with your project.

yeah thats all true. if he went turbo the same would apply... but we prob will never know how many miles or anything about his car. i don't think he will see this post or he may. but if you went with a small shot such as under 50 and you motor does not have tones and tones miles on it your stock motor can take it.. except you would want to get your timing retarded, colder plugs, and make sure the person putting it in knows what he is doing.But before you try whether it be nitrous or turbo... make sure your motor is not a piece of crap...

tossing a turbo ain't cheap... well i remember reading about some guy did it for under a grand but i wouldn't trust a set up that cheap.. and if he wanted to do nitrous he most likely didn't have the money for a turbo. since nitrous is the best bang for the buck and is relatively cheap.

do you mean babies... jk and the motor is not really built for a turbo either... just like you can throw turbo on tho and gain 100 hp or more you could do the same with nitrous.. and it can hold nitrous just fine... tones of people put nitrous on there 240s... also he maybe cannot afford a decent turbo kit..

Usually a under a grand turbo kit in not that reliable.. how many miles on the turbo. And thats just one thing. Could he put it in or would he have to pay.. And i was gonna turbo my car and most of what i read was you get what you pay for.

What i said was is that ebay sells the nos kits. NOS is a company and they make a kit that is called the sniper kit. I don't know why you said ebay nitrous. EBAY just has the best prices for the kit. Well they are the cheapest i could find for the nos sniper kit. NOS is a actually company.. Thats why i said i bought the nos sniper kit. But yeah about the ebay nitrous you most likely where right.

so what about an ebay mani or ebay downpipe... all they handle is hot air...

if they crack who gives a flyin f*ck it was cheap...

buying ebay internals...now that is a waist of money...

buy a ebay mani or SSAC and if u feel unsafe have it reinforced for like a 100 or even less...

my homie with a MEGAN headers reinforced his and he's chillen happily for like a year and so....runnning a T28 71r boosted KA with tune...

as far as NOS...

dragster only sure more power to u...but street driven...do me a favor and fly off a hill...cuz eventually u will

I am not about to get in a argument about the ebay stuff. There have been people that have had good and not so good stories with ebay products.and i know i would care if i wasted my money on a mani and it cracked. It is always best to not cheap out on some parts. But about the last part i don't really get it but say i got a turbo that made the same power.. How is it any different. I guess i will go fly off a hill with a turbo too. And why would you wast time to get a ebay mani and get it reinforced.. that could add up. just get a quality one in the first place and you won't have to worry about anything..

If the fuel system is bumped up, the timing is retarded 2-3 degrees (depending on how much you plan to spray ), colder plugs are used, and you do a cometic hg and studs on a KA with good compression, it will love nitrous. I dont know where you get the idea that the motor will blow if you use nitrous, try to step aside from your ignorance and actually learn the facts about something before you start talking. If used the right way nitrous ca be just as effective a mild turbo setup giving you anywhere from 50 to 100 hp at the push of a button. My question to all those aposing nitrous is "why the hate??" When it comes to damaging the engine, in my opinion turbo charging a non-turbo motor is more harmfull than nitrous. The reason being the turbo will spool and create boost at all times even when Daily driving forcing air into the engine and raising the pressure inside the motor. Nitrous will only kick in when needed. Don't say something before you know what you are talking about.........I love turbo cars but nitrous is a different feeling altogether, you should try it biches
