Just bought a 92 240sx and need some info
 

I have just purchased a 92 model 240sx naturally asspirated and need some info:
what sort of HP does it have?
what sort of performance numbers would I expect?(0-60 & 1/4mile)

p.s. my other car is a 350z and the SX was bought for AutoX and to practice drifting in:D

hey there....i'm gonna try to answer your questions to the best of my knowledge but someone else can feel free to correct any mistakes i might have made...

the '92 model of the 240sx is bone-stocked at 155hp and is expected to run a 16.5-17.0 in the quarter mile.

p.s. how much did you pick it up for? You own a 350Z?? i'm very jealous...i envy you...

155 hp and 160 lb/tq, actually should run about 16.3-16.7. Pretty sure the '92 model is the lightest of all 240sx. Take out spare tire and jack and back seat and you could make up a little time also.

They basically covered it all. Any pics of the cars?;)

An auto would run high 16's, and a stick with a good driver should be able to run 15.8-16.2.

Taking out the spare tire and jack and back seat would save you maybe 60 pounds, thats not even .1 of a second in the quarter mile bud.

240's have great stock suspension, however you'll want to upgrade it to autox and drift it. Must be a difference in hp going from the 350 to the 240! but RWD, both good choices!

sorry dude.... how about this??!!:p

One more stupid question!!!!! what is the engine name or code?? e.g. VQ35:)

89-90 240s had the KA24E motor. Which is a SOHC and rated at about 135-140HP i think.

91-98 had the KA24DE motor. Which is an updated DOHC version.

KA24DE ;)

Here is a lil more info

89-90 240sx: KA24E (SOHC) 140hp, 152 torque
91-98 240sx: KA24DE (DOHC) 155hp, 160 torque

thanx guys :)
