starter question

[sicairos_2007]

does the starter from the ka24de work on the sr20det?

no

[sicairos_2007]

ok so im pretty sure i may need a new starter but i want to make sure... when i want to crank my car i get no noise at all then after a long time in turning the ignition it cranks and turns on but then the starter makes a weird wineing noise.

If you search enough you will see that you can use a ka24de starter on an SR. You have to take all the "internals" from the KA starter and swap them into the SR starter. You basically just need the bracket part from the SR so it bolts up. I have not personally done this, I just read it on this forum.

BTW, my problem was due to a bad connection on the battery. I re-tightened it and it worked fine. I took off the starter and took it to O'Reilly's, they tested it, and it was fine. So my friend recommended we check the battery. It took about 15 minutes of actual work to get the starter off. It took longer just to jack the car up and get it on the stands.

Actually your giving wrong information also. You use the KA SOHC Starter Motor/Syliniod and SR Starter head to rebuild the starter.

And I have done it not just read about it

I actually read it was the DOHC KA starter, so good information!! Thanks

[sicairos_2007]

ok now im confused can i or can i not use the dohc starter?

[Blown240sx]

No you have to use the motor and siliniod off the SOHC KA starter and the SR Starter head.

[sicairos_2007]

i found out it was my ignition switch where you put the key ... so yeah it runs now but thank for your help.

I was under the impression that it was the KA24E starter as well. And since you said you've done it, i believe you.

Yes it works very well just be carefull when taking them apart the gears inside will fall out on you and are annoying to put back in. Not hard but annoying.

Lastly DO NOT over tighten the bolts that hold the starter together. They need hand tight pressure.
