If you only knew how wrong that statement was.
the only expensive part you need is the manifold/header.
Get a used turbo and intercooler... fab the plumbing yourself... and use a FMU for the fuel boost.

it isnt to hard and not very rare . if u knew how to weld and had some bank it could esaily become a more powerful beast

Well, here's a possible plan I may go with...

ka24de, $400
knife edge crankshaft
bored to 2.6L
port and polish
pistons, rods, head studs, rod bolts
matched ported/polished head
racing valves/springs
possible JW cams
greddy turbo kit, gonna be out before I'm done, $2200

all together, doing work with a buddy, should be less than 6k. fully built, 400+ capable, but running a modest 320-350. can't beat displacement...

and I priced an Sr swap, really expensive place, but they told me altogether with motor install, front mount, 300z fuel filter, piping, custom a/c and powersteering, $7400. talk about armed robbery, but other places are still asking around 6k...

for all that (stock sr puts 166obo to the ground) I can get a lot more, insane torque, nice displacement, street legal, and as for blowing the motor? 3 foot flames ought to be nice...

Great plan dude... GREAT plan...

$7400us???it's that the average price for an Sr swap in the states?

[AJ-SPEC]

Nooo, this is just one place that I went to, they have a really good rep, but they are asking way too much. No, the avg. price that I've seen around is still 6-6.5k. anyone else seen less? this is just for my area, btw.

o.k. what about the engines(sr20det), how much they go for?

[AJ-SPEC]

around here? 2800 for redtop (obo), 3200 for s13 blacktop, 3600 for s14 blacktop, 5k for s15. these are averages for the places I've talked to. either way, bigger/better motor imo for less, and street legal.

Dream Garage will get you a full clip for super cheap. Contact me or jacob (driftaholic91)

[AJ-SPEC]

that's all right, I think I'm gonna go with my 2.6, but that won't be until I can handle the power anyways. roadrace I've been ready, but drifting's another story... but who knows what I'll want next summer...

Turbos suck, they lag, and are over-priced.

GO with something else

I highly suggest looking at these sites.. they have lots of good info.

[AJ-SPEC]

too bad I don't live in Virginia, huh? No emissions there either, if I heard right.

[Nightwalker]

(sigh) I don't even want to start.

[PrOxLaMuS© S30]

LoL...
sorry I know this thread was about KA24DE-T engines and turbo kits for KA engines... but while on the topic I brought up .. why not SR20DET? Its cheaper than most think.

JGY customs also has turbo kits.. as well as Heavy Throttle.com
