Who here has the fastest Non Turbo 240?

[Aries]

So, Who has it?

What's done to it, and what times does it run?

*Note: Yes, I am looking for a race. Yes my car is fast. Please see sig.

[UncleBen]

woah, that time is really fast. what mods do you have?

[nismoXsylvia]

yeah i'd like to know what you're hiding under that hood as well. spill the beans, if you will

[MaineExport]

I'll race you.... and get my a$$ handed to me! But I guess it's worth it to see your N/A KA in action.... I'll gladly get roasted! Mine's kinda fast.... but no where near the 13 second range... not even in the 14...... might be able to squeeze a low 15 out of it... or a high 14 on a REALLY good day!:D (NOT!)

My mods are listed in my sig..... not exactly all that extensive, but I'm planning Nismo cams, underdrive pullies, and lightened flywheel next... then high 14's won't be all that out of reach!

[UncleBen]

for a while i thought about doin cams and pulleys and compression and pistons and JWT ECU and everything else to mod up the KA, but nah. i want the s14 SR20. hopefully i can save to get one in the not so distant future

[Zebrahead]

I feel warm and fuzzy inside. Just to let ya'll know. And the post? I'm thinking it you're running a 13.5 all motor, your motor probably won't last very long. As sturdy as teh KA is, its not unbreakable.

[Tino]

speaking of engine length, how long does your average sr20 turbo last?

[UncleBen]

one factor depends on how hard you drive it.

[Get240DiZzY]

I've got a 10.67 second car... 0-60 that is. Well, maybe not THAT slow... as far as you know.

I'd feel better about a WELL built engine putting down 13 sec 1/4 miles... than a stock boosted engine running 13's!

[Aries]

well, Since everyone wants to know what is in the car, I guess I can share

And the times were run on Yokohama 205/60/15 YK420 Road Race tires with my car lowered 3.25" in the front and 3.0" in the back by Sprint Agressor Lowering Springs.

And just so no one thinks it's faked...Here's the other time I ran that night before being kicked off the track for no helmet.

10/11/2002

2.180 60'8.909 1/881.51 mph13.699 1/4102.56 mphHopped a little on the launch, and then broke loose between each gear cuz my dumb *** wouldn't let off the button.

2.082 60'8.764 1/881.71 mph13.548 1/4102.52 mphGood launch, no spin. Tires did not break loose betreen gears even though I was holding the button throughout.

So, um...I'd love to pick a race with any 240 owner in the Houston area...I'll be at Houston Raceway Park this Sunday trying to beat those times, and on october 26 I will be competint in the 13.99 to 13.00 bracket of The Clash of the Titans held at HRP.

Ahh... I was impressed until I realized your actual engine mods were not THAT much really... and that you use N2O to get the good times! I know nitrous is still considered N/A, but it's not really enough to give you the "all motor" bragging rights. What do you run without spraying?

Please note* I'm not crapping on you for using N20... I think it's great, I was just psyched because I thought you had a well built KA. Not to take away from what you've done, becasue it sounds like you've put a lot into your car..... but I guess part of me was wishing it was all natural!

[Zebrahead]

I would agree. Except I think Nitrous (please god make them stop saying NOS) is pretty lame. I'd also like to know what you run w/o the spray. I'd bet a mid-high 14.

My best off the bottle was a 14.6, but Friday night I was cutting 14.7 consistantly.

Hopefully with my new 550cc injectors on the way I'll be able to push down the motor times as well as the nitrous times.

what size shot of nitrous oxide are you using for your best time?

[Aries]

It's just a little 100 shot dry.Properly tuned, and using medical grade nitrous.

[I H8 UR DSM]

.yea, ive seen low 13s from ka's with only i/e/150wetshot...

but just so you know (not you aries), thats not allmotor, or NA...

diddo for me. he said exactly what i was goin to

[MasterMan]

hmm medical grade nitrous eh.. where u gettin that from let me know ill buy some.. not for my car tho.. lol

[UncleBen]

lol

Very true.Nitrous is a power adder, and therefore the motor is no longer NA.Instead it is Bottle Fed

And the 150 Wet Shot is a great way to go, but they could do seriously more to the car and go even faster.

I plan on breaking into the 12's this weekend with a little more nitrous and my slicks. FIrst we'll see how much 26x10.5x15 MT E/T Streets help, and then we'll up the shot if needed.My motor is strong enough that it has handled a 200 on the street, but I'm not sure how the rear end would like that at the track on slicks...

WE SHALL SEE... :ylsuper

Since I'm getting a lot of emails about the Import Car Club of Houston guys not believing my times, I'll scan the timeslips when I get to work in the morening.I don't have a scanner here.

Anyone that wants to take a look at my car is welcome to.I'm fairly easy to find in Houston.It's the only Mad Man and Co. Racing sponsored 95 240SX.

Hey maine you know your greddy headers, will i have a 95 to and was thinking of getting headers, but everyone says that greddy aren't good but i want to find out from people who actually have them which one of them is you. Have they given you any problems?

[MaineExport]

It hasn't given ME any problems... and it is no longer my problem even if it fails (removed and sold).

The rumor was that the welds are weak. Supposedly GReddy fixed the problem and the header I had must have been from the newer generation of corrected units.

On a side note.... the difference in performance with and without the header is quite noticable if you already have exhaust and intake done. I was quite impressed!!!

I hate to be so picky but this is just a pet peeve of mine. In our case its a HEADER not headers. If you have a v6 or v8 you will have headers, but on i4's and i6's you have only 1.

Sorry, I am just really sick today and I am freakin grumpy, lol.

[Dano]

so is any1 in the houstan area gonna challenge him? those are some pretty impressive times even tho like they've all said, if it was completely natural we would be way more impressed, but just the same, nice work! and let us know if u get challenged by another 240.

[SilviaLuvr]

im probably going to get a lot of flack from this but the thread did read "fastest NON TURBO 240" so basicly anything and everything else goes.

[Former_240_s14]

[I H8 UR DSM]

ill race my non nitrous car vs your nitrous car.....so 1 power adder each : )

[Anand]
