New here from Philadelphia
 

Like the title says, i am from the Philadelphia area and am new to this forum. I have a 95 240sx SE with the stock ka24 in it. No real mods done to it, just a 3 inch catback, tien basic coilovers and Sportmax 17x9 all the way around. I also have a few cosmetic things done but nothing major. I plan to swap the engine over the summer. Tell me what you guys think.

Everyone's swapping engines . . .the KA seems more than capable for everything you can throw at it . . .oh well

I guess it's not the JDM-WAY you have to be M@d tYt3 nowadays . . .

Welcome from central PA. Nice car.

Welcome, I got dem saym wh33lz y0.

Man im so JDM i sleep on the right side of the bed lol. I would do a KA build but the original engine in the car has 175,500 miles on it and the car is my daily. Who knows, maybe i will end up building a KA if i find another one cheap to build.

welcome bro.. i have been to phily street races many many times.... .... .... .. .... ..... .... ... some of them cant drive man lol.

you can find Ka's for cheap but its slowly becoming scarce. hell at one point i had 4 KA's in my possesion. to banged up and 2 running.

LOL! Well, your motor is all sparkly and stuff, LOL! Nah, I know, I'm just having some fun without trying to get TOO FAR off topic. I personally have nothing against engine swaps, I just think it's become a craze more than a "necessity". When I just started out with the tuning thing, I thought the SR20 was the only way to get power. Then people started tuning the torque-monster that is the KA24 and I was blown away by the performance of it.

Very fun!

couldn't agree more.

Yeah, my friend has a turbo KA and he wastes me off the line. I have an SR for those of you that didnt know. On the freeway though, I kinda kill him. There is a kid around here with an RB25 in his 240 and I killed him the other night. He must not have that **** running right cause he should have bent me over and raped me two days from tuesday.

He was like, WTF??? Your car pulls like a monster.

And I said,"No, your car pulls like a girl."

Apparently the reason ka's are becoming so scarce is because Biggamehit and I have the majority of them. lol

I currently have 4 ka engines out of chassis and three in chassis.

The ka is more than plenty capable of making power, My S13 hatch was Ka-t with 205,XXX miles ran fine, removed the turbo setup and sold it. The car is still driving with 231,XXX miles. (I do suggest freshening up the engine before adding boost with an engine above a 100k)
