[chris1212]

Just go to YouTube and type tomei ka24det. It will have about3 build vids and 1 dyno vid. All well worth watching

All the vids:

So far they have prototype pistons, rods, and valve guides.
They just got done making the new camshafts too, they're testing them out now.


Look for Tomei 240sx on Facebook if you're on there.

[pepesilvia]

ohhhh mahhh laaawdddd. I watched the video of the S14 on the dyno and the needle on the speed-o looks like its broken hahaha. Amazing!

[chris1212]

There is a video of the turbo,custom mani and exhaust

[94_240sx]

Just saw the video. It was amazing. As if the engine didn't even try.

They're just going to make an overpriced turbo kit that no one will buy.

Hm. I thought I was the only one that thought the Greddy kit was over priced. I never saw anybody with the kit in person either. Maybe Tomei will make it reasonably priced though, you never know.

[krash]

If I had the money I'd buy their kit. Having high end parts is really nice.

That being said, the KA-T market isn't really "missing" and thing turbo kit wise. But its nice to have support from high end companies

[Razi]

They'll probably end up making a head gasket like for the SR. That and the poncams will probably sell well. I know I'd buy em.
I wonder if they'll make an intake manifold someday.

I've been keeping an eye on this through facebook. Definitely interested in how they do things. I have a built SR myself, but have always wanted to do another 240 with a KA-T. I like both, no reason to hate

too true.


the majority of 240 owners aren't down to pay for quality parts. Its the reason why brands like godspeed and isis are so successful in the 240 market.

Which is a damn shame...

Yeah, I have a holset hx35 on the shelf that would be nice sitting on a KAde with proper cams. This is interesting to me.
