Please take it easy on me since I am new to the Nissan world. I don't know much about Nissan's except for the extensive research that I have done on them. I do know alot about Honda's though.

I have latelly realized how awesome the S14 really looks and is overall. My plans are to do the following to the KA24DE:
-simple header
-cold air intake tube
-high flow muffler
-75hp NX wet shot
-93 octane pump gas

I don't plan on installing an aftermarket audio system, so extra weight won't be an issue. Given the fact that I am a good driver and weigh about 150 pounds, and considering the "modifications" listed above, should I at least hit low 14's in the quarter?

P.S.- I am wondering how responsive these engines are to performance cam grinds. I would think that they are extremely responsive to performance cams.

 

shouldnt be a problem to hit 14's with that setup, i'm ont a huge fan of nitrous but whatever works for you...also, look into gettin lsd for the rear and possibly some coilovers so you can get the best traction

 

I think I like the Nissan community already.

However, what power figures usually get an S14 into the 13's? Just curious.

 

sounds like a decent setup. nitrous is the only way your gonna get good numbers on an n/a ka.

 

i had 247hp w/ my old s14 on crappy tires and i was runnin 13's all day long

 

Sdrift, what did you do to your car in order to acquire 247hp? Just curious, because I want to run consistent 13's.

By the way, thanks to all that are replying.

 

i had the sr20det swap, fmic, full turbo back exhaust, pullies, 255 fuel pump and a tune.. as for a ka24de running 13's, you going to have to have a header, exhaust, intake, 370cc injectors, cams, pullies, and most likely a shot of nitrous unless you would want to turbo your ka24, its not the most expensive turbo setup and with small tuning you should be able to run 13's

 

I'm sort of wondering about whether or not AEM is the best EMS to use for Nissans, but I think that there has to be a better (less expensive) alternative. I mean, look at how well Hondata works for Honda engines, and then look at its awesome price. I'm sort of wondering if Nissans have these sorts of options.

I guess I should do a little more research on EMS for Nissans.

 

just get it dyno tuned, thats what was done to my s14, just get a safcII or something like that

 

I see! Thanks for the info!
