Definitely! working on last minute details now and the kits should be available for purchase soon.

does Nistune have any sort of knock control? Also, does it have a speed density option? If not, is a z32 the "biggest" MAF I could run? Yes it does have "knock control" using the OEM strategy...but it's not reliable for feedback like you may see on some standalone systems. It is...

hmm, it's hard to tell what's going on with your setup with all the million hoses running in and out...but from what I can tell, here are some suggestions: Connect a hose directly from the supercharger actuator/bypass valve to the little bung/nipple on your intake pipe (between the throttle body and...

8-bit, EXCELLENT explanation on everything! I had the larger/expanded version of the TP scales on my timing/fuel/ve maps going on up to a TP of 144. This is to account for something like 24psi of boost, which would be overboosting on that setup with a wastegate at 12psi. Do you mean "overboosti...

Well i got the cold pipe done and mounted. I adjusted the throttle tension to adjust my idle since i got rid of my iacv. The q45 and ka tps sensor are the same but for some reason it was reading backwards on aem ( full throttle was 0% and vice versa) so i had to rewire it. Yeah it's because the Q45...

so after installing s/c, then fixing all the leaks, then replacing a distributor(which went bad) the car is running good. except the vacuum being at 12in... before i put it on the scb actuator was hard to move. but now it stays full open at idle then when i close it by hand my vacuum goes up to 16-...

Adam, yeah the supercharger is outputting some heat within the air stream going into the head ports/combustion chamber, but it shouldn't be as much heat conduction through alloys as much as a turbo/manifold combination is. Are you using one of the thermal gaskets in between the head and the upper ru...

Hey ryan you should post up pics of your TB so we can see what all you removed. I've looked into this but really couldn't find any info on it. Hell do a tutorial while your at it =) Here's some photos of the Q45 T/B with all the crap removed on both of my S14's. http://www.ka24der.com/images/galler...

Best of luck to you. It's good to see more support for boosted KA stuff! My only suggestion is that you get a base tune for your recommended setup. Maybe for a Nissan ECU and an AEM and you can distribute to customers or sell as an option. It's easy for customers to get a hold of parts but when it ...

what manifold and what size wastegate are you currently using? pictures?

Do you know of any used part sites or other sites where the supercharges are available for reasonable prices? Beyond eBay and supercharger rebuilders, maybe Xterra or Frontier forum classifieds You have until about next summer to get this kit up , running and any bugs sorted out. I've been "te...

Greetings... As some of you have heard or know about, I am selling supercharger adapter kits and will be releasing them to the public hopefully before Xmas holidays. Just wanted all those to be aware that were looking at building a supercharged KA24DE setup that something will soon be available. htt...

side note. for the last year i run 87 octane and 8psi. travel 500 miles every other weekend. get 35mph still make 200rwhp. eat it. Damn, 35mph is slow! :D Wanted to share this link with everyone...I will be selling supercharger adapter kits and put together a little microsite recently: http://www.k...

glad I could help :D setup is looking damn nice by the way...nice to see other KA24DER setups out there coming together. I'm trying to get more exposure out there to the public on the potential of these M62 supercharged setups...they really tear a$$ on the street and are easy to maintain. By the way...

gonna be straight nasty! I bet the Xcessive intake manifold will work damn good for what you are doing...do a before/after dyno with the velocity stack insert in and removed...I got a feeling that you'll be better off without it at the boost level you'll be pushing the car (those things are more for...

hey ryan i was just reading about your fail safe method, wouldnt that cause a vac leak? in reference to what....? if you are talking about the stock bypass valve/actuator, it just bypasses the air "internally"...there is a little butterfly integrated into the supercharger housing that rec...

yeah you can set it up both ways (with a wastegate or blow off valve) on the charge pipe. It's just 2 different strategies that essentially achieve the same result.

please explain

you'll probably end up needing a little bit bigger turbo to run 10.5 sec ET...maybe go with something in the range of 61-67mm and lag shouldn't be bad at all and will make it easier on achieving that goal. As far as intercoolers go, honestly at that power level and the required boost level to achiev...

Tiny, carry on my wayward son.

a small to mid frame turbo (like GT3071R or something in the 54mm range) and lots of boost on stock s13 cams will do it...but you'll probably want forged rods/pistons in order to achieve that reliably. Definitely do it on a twin scroll manifold (like Full Race's) or look into Sound Performance's QSV...

there is no reason gas mileage should suffer off boost. steady running, the same amount of air and fuel are being spent. when you crack the throttle is when you're wallet empties into the gas pump. :wink: True, but it "gets into" boost SOOO much easier than a turbo. Fuel pressure seems to...

it's far from a "bolt-in" affair...you don't see too many people breaking R200's anyways...stick with what works!

are you both using the coolant hardlines on the TB or not? I believe the Q45 TB's have an integrated idle control strategy built into them using a wax pellet that closes/melts depending on the coolant temperature passing through...so essentially when coolant temps are cold, the wax allows some air t...

A 29" tire is going to be REAL hard to fit in the fenderwell arch. You are better off with something in the range of 26" minimum height to a max of 28"

If you still have the AAC valve hooked up and it's working correctly, then your idle speed should be adjusted and dynamically controlled with the little adjustment screw on the valve assembly, not the throttle stop. Adjusting the throttle stop to set the idle speed is only for cars without an AAC va...
