        The 240sx comes with a ka24de motor or ka24e. a 2.4 liter engine not a 2.0 liter. the sr is 2.0 liters. everybody calls the ka a truck motor, not a minivan motor. There are a lot of people that are loyal to the ka and i have seen a few with 400 hp. so it can be a powerful engine. Both are good engines, some people just prefer one over the other.

        - peace

        p.s. i hope you were joking about the whole ka20de thing, but either way i hope that clears it up

            people like it because it starts out with more hp than a ka, it has a turbo, and there are a lot of parts for it since it is such a popular car in japan. but others don't like it because if you install it yourself, it still costs 2 grand to have a stock engine and everything, and they say people get it to be jdm tight. just go whichever is easier for you and which you like better. don't buy it just because it came from the car in japan. also the ka24 has more torque than the sr which can be helpful. i'm not the most knowledgable person though, just use the search button and you'll find a lot of stuff on this topic.

                86mm stroke and 89 bore. It will be one beast.

                    OK calm down. Use your time and make questions i can understand. KA42E and KA24DE are real motors that come in the 240sx. KA20DE does not exist or is in some irrelavent truck that nobody cares about. KA21DET is a made up motor that I named and would like to create using all sorts of Mistubishi, datsun and nissan parts.

                    Red tops are early model SR20DET that came in Japanese silvias and 180sx's.

                    Blue tops I have never heard of and the Black tops are SR20DET's found in later model 180sx's and Silvias.

                    Take your time and read on www.zilvia.net and www.nicoclub.com

                    both are great sources of info. Good luck.

                      could you only get a anew crank and destroke it, if so, from wich car/engine. I think stock ka stoke is 96, huge compared to the 86mm of the sr

                            LOL maybe.


                            After I build mine if I can find some more donor cars I might be able to sell them. Cheaper than SR and better.

                              would it be possible to destroke the ka without a custom crank being built? IE lb20 or somethink similar.
