Let us KA guys have our talk about our motors, You wanna drop your Stock SR in and call it a day go ahead, its a cool car but it doesn't get my respect. The reason we like to build our KA's is because the point is taking a POS and making it something great. You Stock SR guys are the same reason we hate mustangs, you can drop a $2000 supercharger in it and its the fastest s*** around. Yea its really not that bad a**. But heres this Piece a crap slow motor thats a dime a dozen I just dropped $10,000 and now im smokin mustangs, now thats bad a**. And to top it all off we like our forged iron blocks that can handle WAY more boost and not some little cast aluminum block. Not to mention the KA will take you over 300k miles if you treat her right. Not tryin to diss too much, I would totally rock an SR if I had enough money to buy a real silvia that already had one in it.

Re: SR vs KA
Wow you sure are argumentative for someone with less than ten posts. Why dont you take a step back, and stop trying to tell people what to do or not do.

Re: SR vs KA
Wow... where did this totally unsolicted opinion come from? OP, we are well aware of the merits of the KA, ok? Now calm your azz down... 
Wait... WTF? You dropped $10k into a KA? Defeats the purpose of using a cheap motor like the KA, IMO. KA doesn't need $10k to make 400hp.

Re: SR vs KA
10k?
I would've rather swapped the engine for something like a VH45.

I like both. And by that, I mean all three. 
Re: SR vs KA
My SR'ed 240 was fast as f***. My Cobra, which is getting forged internals and juice is fun as hell. Go f*** yourself.

Re: SR vs KA
KA vs SR... This argument has been going on for at least a decade now, there is no appeasing the fanboys. I like toying with SR's, but quite frankly neither of them are special in any way.
