I am very late to this post, yet i am in AWE this is amazing! I aboslutely love your ingenuity! Keep up the amazing work man!

i planning on making a hatch sill for mine, have you tried victoria-british?

Thank you very much. I ordered a set that will ship out this coming friday for 48 bucs a piece. I appreciate the help. Nick

I am looking to buy a set of rockers for my 75 and i can't seem to fine the left (driver's) side anywhere. Are they still out there? where can i buy them. I just assumed that victoria-british would have them in stock...i was wrong. Thanks in advance, Nick

I plan on a full stand alone of course, which one though i have not decided...as far as the compression ratio. I like 9:1 it's what we have had the best luck at and what i will build mine at. The DSM trash loves 9:1 granted it is an entirely different motor but i think it's a good round number. Sell it most likely interested? I have the full motor, wiring harness, ECU, all the accessories and so on... Anyway I like the lower rpm torque that the KA's seem to throw down. Now granted that dyno was not a good comparison, i think that the ka's have more bottom-end balls then the SR's. But i don't know for sure having not built either, let-alone both. I want the extra 1k, but i would rather balance a KA to get mine, that's all. Nick

i agree, they should have used the same turbo's on both setups. Other then numbers though. The main reason for my choosing the ka24de is the price. I can pick a whole car up locally for about 500 wrecked but with a good drivetrain and all of the wiring and misc. parts i might need. I will probably end up building the bottom end and having mild headwork done, some cams and such. However i believe i can build a 350-400 horse KA for in the 1500 range (no turbo or intercooler or injectors or stand-alone). As I have a local machine shop that i can buy wholesale forged internals from DIRT CHEAP, name brand stuff too. We build enough 4g's to have a pretty solid backround in where to find CHEAP but good products as far as and IC's and so on... What do you think? Thanks, Nick

Look at the torque numbers between the sr20 and the ka24de though...http://www.drifting.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2427 O, and just a btw, I love what you have done with your car and the (i am assuming) customers cars you have on your site...brings a single tear to my eye...

Hello Everyone, My Name is Nick and i have not posted much on the boards, but i have been watching and reading a little... I have a L28et with full wiring harness and ecu and so on. Howerever i don't believe i want to build it as the head seems to limit the motor. This said, i am looking for a state-side motor that i can build and put down some Higher numbers out of (350-400 range). The motors i have in mind are: KA24de which i would turbo 4g63t i like the idea of a SR20det as well but it seems that the ka is just as good of a motor if not better for a boosted application. Not to mention that parts for the SR are a little difficult and PRICEY to come by. I have the most experience with the 4g63t motors as my friends and I have built a couple of them and run them everyday (at least they do). The parts are easy to get and abundant. Apparently the 4g63t idea has been discused alot and noone has ever come up with a YES or NO it can or can not be done. Th problems seem to the the TB which u can buy a manifold to fix and the trans which u can make and fix with a starion and a Mighty Max trans. The Problems i am wondering about are the Motor mount issues...IS THIS SWAP WORTH IT? What do you think? I was wondering if anyone has opinions in this matter? Does anyone know if this swap has been done for sure? Thank You, Nick
