QUOTE (Junon @ Today at 10:08 PM)
Back up your nonsensical statements.  Because it's obvious you don't have any real experience with 240's, KA's, and RB's. 

I find it hard to believe you're a "mulit state champ with automotive exclence" when you can't even spell excellence nor multi.  Not to mention a number of other grammatical/spelling errors in your random posts of gibberish.

In regards to the "don't buy a 240 unless you have money statement".  Your logic never ceases to amaze me.  The 240 is one of the cheapest cars to build.  Parts are readily available, and cheap on top of that.  Why do you think it's the "new civic"?

To the original poster, check out this thread: https://idforums.net/index.php?showtopic=30378

I just posted some basic info on the KA builds.  I'd recommend starting off with that.  Please take it from someone with experience, the KA is a great engine.  Just because it's "not JDM", doesn't mean it's crap. 

And cpt jack, before you ask.  Yes I've owned a 240.  I've owned 2: a 1991 with a KA that I did minor all motor mods, then a 1990 coupe which I swapped an SR.  I also helped a buddy of mine with his rb25det powered 1998 240sx. 

In addition to that, I've owned an evo, and currently an FD.  So don't bother questioning my experience.

hahahah im not the best speller as u can tell i do have credits my friend backalley and volt know me quite well... i got 13k in scolorships and what not... so i do not have to prove shit... and i have owned a 1990 240sx.... the motor is quite simple no real tricks needed and u own and FD? and an EVO? how old are you? and just because you own the cars does not mean you know what you are talking about.... so congrats on proving nothing grin2.gif yeeeeaa to you! I know what i am talkin about so unless you have something to add to what i wrote i really dont give a shit about u or who you are... just tryin to help this kid get his ka diagnosed and maybe he can fix it if its not to far gone.... w00t2.gif sound like a plan? ok then....


and ps... the ka is a jdm motor yo! came in trucks =)

I'm 22. I sold the evo to buy the FD.

Actually, I added the cars I've owned because it appears you ask anyone who questions your judgment. I was retorting to the fact that you think the Ka motor is crap, and I asked for reasons why you say that. You can't provide any evidence, so I'm basically saying your an idiot, and not to spread bad info when you don't know what you're talking about. Refer to your own sig, fan-boy.

and FYI: the KA is an American motor. Only the US/Canada TRUCKS got it.

I know the feeling of having ot drive family wheels, I had to drive a 98 Yukon with Mud tires. But honestly I think you should just get it rebulit for the cheapness since your low on dough, and down the road do what you need to do. I mean honestly I'm in nearly the same spot, but My car isnt dead/dying, Just costing Me a arm and a leg. you need to get done what you need, so go with the 150 rebulid and call it for it now till you got the money for something thats going to be relilable. I mean honestly you dont want to be stuck with a good job ( i'm guessing? ) and no wheels. and pedalling it sucks or hoofing it. Do what you can. and good luck


and Junon.. Stfu o_o IMHo nissan is teh suxor, its all bout Datsun happy.gif and Mazda o_0

He says its a friend so more in likely it isnt, but still He says He doesnt know when His friends Sr is coming in so He cant get it. Might as well just spend the 150 and get it over with in the next two days and drop it in and bevery careful with it. baby it till you have the other motor and then BEAT THE f**k OUT OF IT WEEEEEE!!!!

It wasn't a flame. Flaming is directed towards other people. Please refrain from trying to be superior to other members.

Anyways, ask your homie the ETA for the SR20, and if you can wait, wait it out. If you can't then I'd get the 150 engine.

especially after seeing a small surprise

so far...pulled SOHC wireharness and ECU...took about an 3 hours or so...simp[ly becuase i kept retracing steps making sure i didnt leave anything hooked up and trying to manuver things around...still probly took to long but hey its my first swap pinch2.gif

my main concern is how and i going to run my power steering pump...because on the SOHC its on the upper front right, while the dual is on the mid left...iv given up on the a/c...but i atleast wanna run P/S...



any one any suggestion...

oh you lucky b*tch pinch2.gif grin2.gif
so i guess that leaves me as the only member on IDWF with a malfunctioning 240 :|

if you got a 96 KA, find a old DOHC 240sx (s14 obviously, but im sure the DOHC s13 would work too, im not sure) and scrap the pump from one of those.

a little custom fabrication to bolt it on doesnt hurt either wink2.gif

EDIT: how much did you pay for the z32 calipers?
EDIT AGAIN: o wait, you didnt get them huh? well im gonna camp outside the junkyard until a Z32 comes by

You can relocate the P/S, check other forums for How-to's.

If its a 96, are you keeping it as OBDII for emissions?

Nice find smile.gif

the thing though is this engine has 350 injectors,and the ecu has been flashed for it...so i cant change ecu...maybe just the harness??? any idea

Why the hell would someone putbigger injectors on an NA setup? I don't think the gains would be worth it unless the motor was turboed.
