    Honda k24 240z

    in S30 Series - 240z, 260z, 280z

    Posted · Edited by jessejames

    Hello, so I'm starting a new project. I'm pulling the Sr20det out and swapping in a Honda K24A2 turbo engine into my 1973 240Z. This is a list of the basics:

     

    2006-2008 Honda k24a2 2.4L vtec

    Cd009 Nissan 370z transmission 

    Efr8474 twinscroll turbo 

    Haltech elite 1500 Ecu.

     

    This is my first attempt to do a build log. 

    Seat swap list for s30's

    I just installed Sparco QRT-R's with planted seat brackets.  The wings are a little to wide and need to be trimmed to fit in the seat. I used sparco side mount brackets with the planted seat bracket. I tried using Sparco sliders, however the seat sat too high for me and would not allow me to use a helmet.  The seats are very comfortable for me. I'm 5'11 and 170lbs. They are snug around my waist. Unfortunately the logo doesn't match on my two seats. I'll be dealing with that later this week.

    Underwhelming Lap Times

    in Brakes, Wheels, Suspension and Chassis

    Too many variables to know for sure. Some questions though:

     

    1) Is mid Ohio a high speed track ? if so, your aerodynamics might not be as good as your Subaru.

     

    2) I didn't see anything about your brakes. Maybe you were able to brake later with the Subi?

     

    3) Sliding is not the fastest way around a track. Theres lots of info on the site about setting up alignment specs.  I know when I was at the track, my lap times got faster, the slower i entered a corner. 

     

    I'm no track expert, so take my advice with a grain of salt.

    T3 and arizona z brake kit

    I'm going to be upgrading my brakes soon. I'm leaning toward getting the t3 front and rear kit. Part of me was thinking about getting the arizona z front kit and using it with the t3 rears. I like that the Arizona z kit is a slightly larger rotor. Does anyone know if they use the same calipers? Is anyone running the arizona z front and t3 rear?

    Floors wet

    My 1973 240z was parked in the rain for a few hours. When i moved it inside I noticed the right side of the drivers side footwell was soaked. The windows were closed. I cant tell where the water came from. The cowl drain appears unkinked and dry. The area near the door was dry. The area under the dash was dry. There was some moisture at the base of the windshield but no where near the quantity of the water on the floor. Is there a common area for water to leak in from?

     

    Thank you.

    What about EFR 7064? Its one sale...

    I have the Efr 6258.  The EFR 7064 was essentially replaced by the efr 7163. It spools faster and makes the same power. Its been a great turbo. My tuner tells me i'm not getting full use out of it as i'm only running 16psi. The turbo can easily handle 25 psi. I don't plan on running E85.  What i don't think you can see on the paper is how it feels to drive. Its the fastest spooling turbo i've ever felt. The wheel of the turbo is made out of a titanium blend. Sorry I cant add much more. I recommend you email Full Race and speak to the staff. They were very helpful when i was trying to decide which turbo to go with. I plan on swapping to the 7163 down the road.
