d@mn you are going to get defensive like that. all i am saying if you keep going back to him what this and that, he will get real frustrated unless he has patience. if he tells you f*ck off, i would not be surprised. imagine if your a specialist in something and someone keeps coming back asking que...

This ^^^^ I called my machinist & he said, that's what he does to all the blocks he builds. dont bother your machinist that much. he will get aggravated with you coming back to him because of what you read on the internet. i dont like when people bother me because of what someone else says. if ...

I am looking to run the car on pump gas. But im not looking for 500hp on low boost, that would be on a mix of race gas to get to that #. I would be happy with 400ish on pump.

no they dont charge more that is the correct way to do it. it yours does find a new one. all the machinists I know will back up there work if they messed up the step up. if yours is charging extra for pride he is a hack and drying to side step responsibility. also it is silicon not silicone. one is...

Thanks again for your reply! I will check in to that.

Any piston made from a 2618 forging will slap when your machinest is a douche. The low silicon content in the 2618 makes them have a high coefficient of thermal expansion. This means that the pistons will have to be slightly loose in the bore when the engine is cold. As long as your machinest measu...

I don't want any thing higher than 8.8:1 pistons, that's Y im looking at these pistons. My whole thing is having a piston that can hold up to the 700hp mark, that I have set for the engine, even though im only running 500. This is for the reliability factor. Run e85 if you can. Detonation will fuba...

Now you said the arias will piston slap! Y is that???

I don't have any parts yet other than a long block to build, & my 240sx with a fresh stock engine in it. I am looking to build the engine for 700hp but i only plan to run 500-550. I want it to have a good safety there. I don't want any thing higher than 8.8:1 pistons, that's Y im looking at thes...

Ok guys im looking @ the Pistons below. I don't know much about buying pistons. I see the supertech's are 8.6:1 or 8.4:1 good for boost. And the arias are 8.8:1 also good for boost. But the weight is what I don't know about as the supertech's are 35g heaver, that's a lot more than the arias. The -cc...

Ok guys I am really lost on what turbo to use? I have a KA24DE, FMIC kit, Tial 40mm WG, Man boost controller. I was going to go with the Garrett GT3076R, but I would like to find something a little cheaper than $1300-1700. I could even be a journal bearing turbo. I am building this for a DD street c...

Prob fixed! Thanks guys.

I changed the MAF and coil, but it didn't fix it. So then I changed the spark plug wires, because they were old anyways. When I pulled the #4 plug wire this time, it was dripping water out the end! I changed the wires and it seems to be running fine now. Thanks for y'alls help! I'll let y'all know i...

No one??? I really need this fixed as its my DD.

Thanks.

Ok guys so I presser washed the engine bay of my KA24DE S13. Do to the fact my cheap turbo setup pissed oil all over the place. So I started the car after I was done & it is missing really bad. I checked the Spark plug holes for water, the dizzy cap, all the injector plugs, maf plug, dizzy plug....

No one else? I just changed the oil & still no good. Fing car!

My ka24E (SOHC) does something like that, i start it up, it fires up and i get like 1-2 secs of 0 oil pressure then it builds up and its all good. But i dont accelerate it to get the pressure, i just start it and after 1-2 secs pop, oil pressure (noisy too, lifters) been running for a year or more ...

I have no oil pressure on startup till I rev it then the pressure pops up. But if I shut it off then start it back up its fine. Only if it sits more than 15mins. like the oil is draining back to the pan? Great oil psi after start. 14-18psi @ idle & up to 60psi @ 4k Rebuilt KA24DE less then 3k. A...

Yes my fuel pump was not getting enough fuel, to the injectors. But I was not getting that code. Sounds like you have a diff. problem.

Ok guys sorry I haven't been on here in some time. I got this prob. fixed, It was the fuel pump.

So any ways, Thanks guys!

Now you sir! Thank you for reading it right! I will recheck that.

Thanks Again.

Add more R12, its kicking off b/c its only got ~7 oz. you need more like 28oz. And no you don't have to switch to R134a if you can afford R12 and have a R12 system and can recover it properly should you need to, then great you're lucky and will have colder a/c then most of us. Sorry I miss typed up...

well one your suppose to switch it to R134a, the other factor is are you for sure that you have it hooked up right? check the wires and make sure everything is straight there, and again check for leaks, you cant see free-on unless you have dye in it with a UV light, also you said you replaced the d...

Ok guys! 91' 240sx KA24DE Stock. I'm running freeze12. So in short I put a new dryer on it. I put 7.5oz of R-12 a/c oil in the system (note the system was bone dry), pulled a vac for 30mins. after leak testing. & charged it. Now for the prob. When you turn it on it works great for about 5mins @ ...

I really would like more info on the stuff used to mod the dash!

I'm Happy with it the way it is. Minus the tails, Yes I am looking for a good deal on some clear & red ones. LMK if you know someone selling them cheap! I'm not slamming it cuz its my DD, Coils would be nice but the Tein S-Tech's I just put on are just right for DDing. I just put the rears on, t...

Here is a pic for you viewing pleasures!

Looking great bro!

All hoses are new. but thanks for the idea.

No one has any ideas???
