where to start ?
 

ok i am going to attempt a rebuild of my ka24de so i can have the car running before i can get the sr put in. the story behind it is it sucked water and so far the plugs are out, valve cover is unbolted, as is the dist., and timing cover. this is how i got the car. so my question is where should i start to look for problem areas and what all should i use to rebuild it. ie brands of rings, gaskets, etc?

I got a link for ya http://www.rpmrons.com/Nissankits1.html :thumb:

so i would probably need the main enigine kit. the new gaskets, rings, pistons, etc. ? if so thats 402.71, what do used ka24de's sell for on average?

if you find someone who's swapped their engine, you can find a KA for $100-300.

You'll need a new oil pump as well. here's a link to another engine rebuild parts site, should be a complete kit.
