okay... let me just state that the car is running as we speak, these pics are kinda old and overdue. there are more of them however i just need to get off my lazy ass to get them.

okay as some of you know before christmas last year i blew my engine in my 92 Nissan 240sx... in a sence it puked all it's oil and spun a rod bearing...

anyways a full rebuild was commenced. and with out further delay here are the pics...


removing the head off the old block


grr... damn you lower timing chain


head dissembled


ooo new paint... and rice


well there's yer problem... seems there was a little more going on then a spun bearing


for anyone else doing this rebuild... remember to install this plug, apparently it's the darin plug for the blocks coolent... doh


engine in car finally


4X4-ing


like i said there are more pics... i'll just add them later

thanks for looking... next step is ITB's

Dope dude u took a part a twin cam, i gotta do the timing on my car im just to scared to take anything apart thats timing related.

this looks like a guy that WOULD have this


as his avatar. . .


hahahaha


i keeeed. . .. . i keeeeed. .

least i don't have an overrated clothing co.

Did ya just rebuild or did ya add some goodies to the KA?

well basically it's all stock except for the new bearings, rings, and seals. however i did go aftermarket for those. yay ability to hold 20lbs of boost

Eeeexcellect!

isnt a ka in its stock form capable of running that much??

idk on that.. about the only thing i've heard of was 10-15 psi on stock...

but this on these bearings i know i can safely run 20 psi without issues

u gona boost it? if so wouldn't u need stronger internals for it? wahhhhh... time for me to do more researching on KA-T.org BOHEEE

stronger ineternals never the bottom end on a ka isnt half bad I'd trust up 2 or close to 20psi on that bottom end

and the only reason you see built up bottom ends on ka's is because whoever runs a ka-t is usually boosting near that or more matter in fact the only people ive seen with ka-t's are like 20 plus psi

I guess its cool to always have a crisp running car atleast. Cause i dont even have a heater..........

^ True. But from what I've read, you really don't need to boost really high to get some decent power out of The KA.

yeah i was not planning on boosting anywhere's clost to 20psi

and i'm well aware that the bearing and rings are not the weak-points

lol, no way ur gonna safely run 20lbs boost on that motor. There is a reason i built mine.

8.8:1 FTW lol

you didn't read the part where i said that i was not planning on running anywhere close to that did you???

reading > you

no i actually read the whole thread.

I was laughing cause u think u can run 20psi.

Totally different. Toootally ( biodome)
