http://phase2motorsports.store....html these are the rods. they are both for the ka24de..so i don't see why they wouldn't work together, i just thought i'd check before i bought them. I'm rebuilding my motor with all new parts.

Also, are thesse good cams to go with? Someone told me the 264's were the best to go with. Would these work?

If you are that uncertain that the rods will not work with these pistons, i would suggest that you contact either manufacturer about thier products. I'm sure they would be more than happy to assist you in buying a $600-$800 bottom end for your project...

JWT cams are very popular, but without the JWT tuning i would guess they are about worthless... S13's KA24DE is rumored to have slightly different cams than the S14's, I've heard of them being called an upgrade to the S14's. so you may not want to go changing them out just yet...

As for the rods, i would suggest looking into 'X-Beams', there are some crazy good things out of KA24's and as an owner i consider the 240sx to be one of the most under-estimated cars of all time. I can't wait to start shopping for my parts.

Good luck, and enjoy the build!!!
