what to do with my 240sx?

i got a 1990 240sx hatchback with 136,000 miles on it. I have read that the sr20det won't pass emissions in nc. i want to know what you guys would do buy a ka24de with low miles and turbo it or try to find another engine that will pass emissions in nc. if i were to buy a ka how many miles should i look for it to have. thanks

Welcome to the site.

You are actually in luck. You are local to a great Nissan shop. I would like to visit it if I am ever in the south.

Check out the guys at:

http://www.balancedperformance.com/index.shtml

They do some nice stuff. They are working on a silvia project right now.

Give them a call. I was thinking of taking my car to them when I first got it and I am in NYC.





I am all country wide.

Welcome

Hope you enjoy the site.

Sr20 motors will not pass emissions and I think that a turbo KA will not pass unless the kit is smog legal. You would have to check with comapnies that make a kit for the KA like www.nsport.com to see if their kit is smog legal.
