datsunfreak Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 But what if I went L28ET :-O Why? Tired of having a car that turns? :rofl: 1 Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 Nah, I'm talking shit on Ratsun... Like I usually do. Lol.I really like my current car, engine, wheels, ...everything. Real happy with the way it is. BUT, I've really been wanting to actually build an engine lately. It's like how 35 yr old womens' biological clock tell them to have a kid.... I have that right now. I want to build a nice, pretty, go-fast engine.I wish the sidedraft manifold was readily available for a KA24E ... I would build one in a hot minute! 1 Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 If you can build an engine, can't build a manifold? Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 I wish the sidedraft manifold was readily available for a KA24E ... I would build one in a hot minute! I have the mild steel flanges if you want a head start on making one? ^_^ Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 You talking about a turbo manifold?Why build when I can buy a cheapo for $85, or $250 for a neato-name brand one. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 You talking about a turbo manifold? No sir. Dual sidedraft intake. B) Like these... Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Oh! No need for custom manifold, you cant just cut the OEM manifold and attach carbs from there. Although... I wouldn't want to do this to a DOHC. Too many other mods that wouldn't be cost effective for the coolness factor. I'd rather do it to the SOHC. Adding carbs is easy... L series distributor is practically only necessary mod. Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 The drag racer one? The one with the slots on it looks to be dark beer bottle brown color on my big screen. You know when i was your age i worked in a industrial paint shop with a huuuge paint area,, and we painted probably 15 home project/beater/flipper vehicles among all us workers and no matter how badly it is put on.. New paint always made the cars look better. Some of the cars had fiberglass strands in the paint and dirt all sorts of shit,,, body lines obviously made with Bondo,,,,, stand back,,,,,,, hmmm looks pretty good... :rofl: :rofl: Drive it a couple weeks and put-er in the Buy and Sale. 1 Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Looks pretty dang good now ,, what's the plan for it?? Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Oh! No need for custom manifold, you cant just cut the OEM manifold and attach carbs from there. On the DOHC, yes. Not on the SOHC. Although... I wouldn't want to do this to a DOHC. I know. These flanges are for a SOHC. They are for exactly what you wanted. That's why I offered them. :rofl: Quote Link to comment

L series distributor is practically only necessary mod. Also, if you used a Frontier DOHC engine (instead of 240SX), the L-series distributor works in it too. ;) Quote Link to comment
Raggleflaggle Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Wouldn't that create a sump/ member issue? Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 How is the ignition different from the Truck KA to the S13/14 KA? This is new to me.And yes, the oil pan, sump, and block for that matter are totally different and not interchangeable from the S13/14 to the truck ka (dohc, that is) Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 Datsnoobs,,, Justin ,, the guy that lives by Pumpkins mom ,, said the wiring on the truck engine has more wires coming out of the distributor. He had Icehouse rig his up but you could go see what they did as truck is still in back garage at his house,, if you asked nicely i bet... Or buy him a beer ,,, just don't buy him to many.

I 'literally' told a guy nearly 100mi away i would drive to him right then, remove it and pay him $50 for it. He said no ....... to make it worse, he was selling the car for $300 or going to scrap it. He wouldn't let me buy one fucking badge for $50!!!!!! Piece of shit.. Quote Link to comment
