NorCalDime Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 I am going to start gathering parts for my KA24de swap in my dime, and i was wondering what im going to do with my old L20. What is the average price for these things? It has 50k on a rebuild, 20k on a rebuilt ported/polished/shaved head with custom cam, dual mikuni 44s, and a Nissan Comp Header. I would be trying to sell the motor tranny combo with everything. Has a 280z 5 speed and roadster clutch with 20k on it. I live in Cali, anyone have some ballpark figures? Quote Link to comment
Phlebmaster Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Holy Cow! I wish I knew...but sounds like you have a pretty sweet setup now. I am curious too what that would go for. I may be going to the L20b eventually. :D Quote Link to comment

racerx Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 yeh me, too. I can come over in 10 minutes and help you unload that engine. Seriously, you are going to lose money. Most dimers I know are practically giving those engines away to make room for KA or SR swap. Now I am hearing that people are trying to get rid of their KA for an SR or Vg. Quote Link to comment
hang_510 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 in running cond? keep driving it until the KA is ready to drop in. no need to have it off the road at the 'collecting' stage. complete, $700 - $900... to the right buyer might fetch more parting it out...

Yeah it is in there now as a DD. Im gonna gather up the KA and get it all ready to go before i pull it. KA is gonna go in and the money from the L20 sale is gonna pay for the AEM EMS so i can use that turbo, injectors, intercooler, and piping i have waiting for that KA :) Quote Link to comment
Phlebmaster Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 I agree with Hang about parting it out. :D Quote Link to comment
NorCalDime Posted September 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 I agree with Hang about parting it out. :D But if i part it out i know im gonna end up with some leftover crap that i will have no use for lol. but i do think i could more out of it selling the carbs seperate, since they are pretty expensive.

racerx Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Yeh I agree you will get more money if you sell separately. Hey, there's a Datsun Swap meet in Sacramento coming up...maybe bring it there, who knows...what about posting on dimequarterly Quote Link to comment
