need to shut this guy up

slip~n~slide · Mar 17, 2008

like i said i want to beat his ass at his own game. so what i am getting here is that our mighty 2.4 is not capable of beating thier 2.2 with the same setup? damn that sucks. ok so then lets try another setup like a KAT at 8psi with 75 shot? the only thing with this setup is that this guy is beating STI's, EVO's and SRT4's. I need to redeam our mighty nissans

chadnhender · Mar 17, 2008

Kat and nos will deffinately win. I dont know about 8 psi though. Just build the motor, a good turbo, fmic, and only a 50 shot of nos. For a turboed car nos is only good from the jump to help spool up your turbo. Running both at the same time is overkill, nos is pretty much liquid air which acts the same as a turbo. You also need to tune it really well to get the fuel air nos ratio perfect.

good luck buddy. its a different game than size. in the world of turbos, size isn't everything. but youre not gonna get him. if he says its just cause of your turbo, then tell him to be a man and strap up you pussy. thats what i would do.

but i still don't understand how fully built KA's can barely make 200whp. i mean come on, bore/stroke, crank balancing and knifing, with a crank scrape, pistons with high compression numbers, oversize valves and cams with huge profiles, portwork and valve jobs, ITB, better injectors, headers and exhaust, with tons of tunning time, no a/c or p/s, performance pulleys, light ass flywheel, driveshaft and wheels, your telling me can't touch 300 whp?

have you done anything to your suspension? brakes? tires? lightening? take it to a track day or autocross and u might take him if ur a better driver. drag racing is for pussys no offense:analhump

chadnhender · Mar 17, 2008

Oh yea I totally forgot to add in the suspension. You know when you burnout or rev up real quick and the front goes up. Well if you stiffen up the suspension in the back so it doesnt do that, you will take off atleast a half sec to a full sec on ur 1/4 mile run.

Also, gears help too

chadnhender · Mar 17, 2008

I am sure that he has a gear issue aswell but the car that stayed down more won.

you actually want the car to come up, that transfers weight to the back, which gives you better traction. Thats why its kinda diff. for FWD cars to hook up, the lift and weight transfer from the launch actually takes away traction. People thought wheelie bars on FWDs were stupid, until they started putting a lil preload on them and it kept the front end planted. The only issue with pulling the front wheels up is it kills ur time at the strip because the front wheels dont break the beam. You also what the rear end to come up as well, while the suspension pushes down, further increasing bite. This is easily dealt with on a solid axle 4 link or ladder type suspension by positioning the forward mounting points of the bars higher or lower changing the IC of the vehicle.

actually on our cars if we bring the ride down 3 inches and then put stiff struts and springs in, it severely reduces the transfer. i wont have to worry about stand ups due to the power being too low for that. now if i am running at 10psi on a t28 and running the juice to around 3200rpm would it be good for the win?

mikethebiker · Mar 18, 2008

just find out already

slip~n~slide · Mar 18, 2008

lol i would but i am tryin to get some ideas from the ones that already have some know how with this engine. due to me only working with honda engines and not a lick of nissan exp. i think i would perfer to get some advice first but thanks for playin ...lol..j\k

you want some nissan exp...go turbo KA or go home. You want to shut the guy up, just tell me to break his jaw, fucker wont talk for 6 weeks and eat through a straw. Your options are limited. The KA is not desing to be a high reving horse power monster. They are a torque happy monster. The main point of our cars though is for the curves. To really put it into perspective the nastiest KA T motor only runs the 9s, sans tubbing and tube chassis.

slip~n~slide · Mar 18, 2008

ok thanks so much guys i think i may have a small idea of what i am going to do. gonna go pick up a bigger hammer and go to work on it

kouki_silvia · Mar 19, 2008

tell him to run swap to swap! not your stock KA...plus nitrous is FORCED INDUCTION, so is turbo, therefore tell him to run forced induction to forced induction. rape that honduh already

slip~n~slide · Mar 19, 2008

ok i have decided to go turbo now what type of setup should i do, please keep in mind that i am trying to do this on a students budget.

chadnhender · Mar 19, 2008

For student budget, just pistons, rings, arp head/mains, new springs and retainers, sand blast those valves, new timing kit, oil pump, and water pump, racing radiator, and peice together a turbo kit.

If you still have enough money get a greddy emanage, and turbo timer.

slip~n~slide · Mar 19, 2008

thanks man. what type of power can i expect from this setup?

chadnhender · Mar 19, 2008

Forgot fuel pump and bigger fuel injectors.

Depends how much you boost, but I am sure you will have enough power

slip~n~slide · Mar 19, 2008

so i read the ka24de/t bible thread and i was wondering how much can i expect to spend on a 350hp setup.
