ka24e slow!!!!!

Ok for engine mods I have a header, fuel 2.5" exhaust, and an intake, and I guess 300zx fuel filter and removed AIV. My friend said that a 2.0 sentra like a 98 or 99 is faster, my engine is the biggest piece of crap ever!!!!!! If thats faster than my car. Try to convince me to not hate my car!!!!!I have done so much to it, I plan to swap in a rb20 but now im not sure if its even worth it, its just a sentra I mean once I have liek 90 or 100 more hp on tap I will feel different but thats not for a while.

Why am I an ***, u said to me that a car with no torque and little hp through u back in the seat. Sry it goes to my head when a 2.0 liter with no turbo and less hp seems faster than my car when it has like no mods.

fellas, fellas, fellas... let's be reasonable here. we're talking about a 140hp, 155ft-lbs SOHC NA motor in a ~ 2800lbs car. if ur expecting to need a neckbrace after a hard launch, ur sadly mistaken. so, i'm not sure what the problem is or what's being looked for. by the ol' butt dyno, some cars feel faster than others. however, that instrument sometimes needs to be calibrated. if the car doesn't feel fast enough to u, by all means, do something about it. i suppose that's what the whole concept of tuning is all about...

Bolt on's don't net you real horsepower. Save some money and either dump an SR in there or turbo the KA.

the 89 to 90 240sx do lack power. the bright side to the story is always ugrades! i t has so much potential plus drifting is alot more fun than pullling the-brake on a sentra

I thought I put it in there, I am defenitley dropping an rb20det myself in the next 6 months, but still lol. It get on my nerves, that a stupid n/a sr20de feels faster than my 2.4 liter, which does not lack in troque compared to his.

sr20's arent stupid, why do u think they put them in s13-15 but with turbo(some non-turbo). have u been to www.sr20forum.com ? plenty of sentras putting out decent numbers there turbo and n/a. the only reason i'm not putting money into my sentra anymore is because i dont want to break the fragile transmission. (and fwd can get boring) hence the s13 in the sig.
