mmhmm, so far the sides (light up shades) and rear (silvia emblem) are already converted. i just need the front :slap:
Keep the Front until I would Keep the Front until you Get the Motor First, the Front doesnt make you Any Faster... oke:
I'm keeping the KA24E for now. carbs, solid lifter conversion, port and polish, header, cam, cam sprocket, valve springs, 0.030 overbore, high comp. pistons and a balenced rotating assembly are the plans. i should hit 200hp at the wheels atleast. thats plenty until i build a 13b and get that in as planned originally.
Want Turbo...??? I have seen a couple of KA24E w/ Turbo Kits Im Unsure where they got there Kits From...
mostly they buid them themselves. ive seen a lot on ka-t.org im looking for Mikuni carbs and a Nismo intake manifold for the direct bolt on. basically what this ka24e swapped 510 has on it (tucked bay and all)
so you're going with all motor with individuals...sounds great, I'm not that good refering to nissans but I'm learning :thumbup:
well, carbs, not ITBs. i could go the ITB route, but i dont want to fab stuff. going with a carburator setup everything bolts up and i get to eliminate wiring cut out the battery tray (15 or so spot welds had to be drilled out, which was a bitch), removed AC, and moved some wires that didnt require soldering. tonight im moving the charcoal canister (deciding on location still), soldering to move my fuse boxes (needs to lengthen wires), and getting my motor clean and ready to install back into the car tuck is about half way done, pics up tonight.
updates! needed a pic of this before i moved stuff around honda roots... old valve cover high temp clear, high temp gold, and brake cleaner (the universal cleaner ) used for the golden transmission and my new valve cover (removal/tucking began) more pics to come of my empty engine bay and tucked techniques -kevin
maybe... some Nissan guy once said, "atleast Honda guys got one thing right." referring to the fire proof, fluid soaking socks that are popular on Hondas i couldnt agree more. i needed them for track use. all fluid resivours need to be covered by something that will absorb fluid if it boils over (clutch, PS, brake)
bay now. moving fuse boxes and other ugly stuff By The Way, If You Right Click The Image and Select "View Image" You Can See the True Resolution
ohh ok hsnap: dude your car is gonna move great but gonna drink the gas like water too trust me, my car is a '84 Accord 1.8 12v with webber carb and everytime I send to the floor the gas pedal my car lose more gas, don't know if you can understand my english:googly:
gas milage is the last of my concerns car update: drivers side engine bay fuse box is disconnected and labeled. new harness is half way made too
you're fucking nuts.. lemme know how easy/hard it is cause i'm considering doing something like this as well
so far, fairly easy. it's just time consuming. -cut each wire and lable with a number on each end (fuse box side and engine bay side) -count how many of each gauge wire and cut pieces to length -mark each with corresponding number -solder fuse box side on -mount fuse box in desired location -run homemade harness as planned -solder engine bay side im currently on "solder fuse box side." its taken me about 3hrs to do the first 3 steps (probably the longest steps)
