rebuildin my ka24de!!!

[adam_91240sx]

I am adam I got this 91 240sx Le automatic an it had a tick in the head so i took out motor, took head to shop an had cracked cam an warped head. And i thought i might as well take whole damn motor out an put new barrings in bottom end. And i came to a stand still between getin forge conecting rods an pistens. but if i get forge pistens should i get motor bored out. I just want a soled running car about 300whp or lil more. And i know car is not worth all that much do to automatic hit me up

you need to send the block off the a shop and have them mic it out and see if it needs to be bored over or not, then you can go from there on what size pistons you'll need. the auto transmission will and can hold 300hp with no problem just get a good transmission cooler and you'll be fine.

[motoman399]

dont say s*** about spellin!!!!

its annoying. learn to spell! this is a technical forum, not a "guess what im saying" forum. plain and simple you need to fix what you are writing even if it takes an extra 5 minutes.

i have no idea what you are trying to ask. i tried reading the whole thing. from what it looks like, you wanted to know if forged internals were a good idea. then you went ahead with the rebuild, did everything right, then it wont start. then it sounds like you figured it out in the wiring but still complain that nobody is helping you. im completely lost...

what are you asking?

[neverlift]

OP
listen I am a high school drop out, who barely passed the GED(before it was a 10th grade level).

It is not hard, if you are on this forum and want help, help yourself and type with more clarity. The people in this specific forum are generally very nice and will ignore rather than bash your short comings.

However with that said you must be more clear and the guys on this forum will be more than willing to help.


Slow down

space it out

ask one question per SENTENCE!

Dont get a big head alot of guys have rebuilt the ka, without any help, from a book or a forum.


I have a run on for you

glad you got that motor running you know it runs so nows time to find the problem she stop runnin look for vac lines and grounds off maybe sensor left unhooked btw is this a kat?

OP-
Trust me when I say this, "you will not find a better group of guys on any topic or on any forum". I came here with little to no knowledge of 240's and probably have asked more than my fair share of dump noob questions. I have received help on everything I have ever asked, and I have never been all out bashed even for dumb questions. If you didn't receive the information and the help you were looking for than maybe you didn't ask the right questions. There is a wealth of information in this KAT section, maybe even more than on other sites dedicated to this subject. Making hatefull posts is absolutely not the key to unlocking it. It's really simple: Ask clear and specific questions, get clear and specific answers. Doing something new is always frustrating but taking it out on the people who are able to help is not going to get you anywhere.

P.S. Welcome to NICO's KAT section, I hope you learn to enjoy it as much as I do.
