220HP N/A KA24E motor for sale

Currently in a body - but the body is complete junk.

Bought it from Maine, led to believe the body only needed little work, but when it arrived, it needed tons.

I have boughten another 240sx now, and just want to stop taking up space in my driveway.

The engine runs perfectly - no pops, no ticks, smooth idle.

Everything inside was customely done, and the total bill was about $4000.

Designed for a 200HP shot of Nitrous Oxide.

Before I bought it, it sat on a beach in maine, so it is VERY dirty, but roars and runs like a champ.

Due to it's dirty condition, and in a crapped body, I have no idea what to ask for it so basically it's up to you what you think it's worth.

Email me at: [email protected] if you have any questions or want pictures of the vehicle.

Thanks,
Chris.

thats a lot of power for a KA. Wait, is that just the motor's power or did it put that to the wheels?

"The engine runs perfectly - no pops, no ticks, smooth idle."

wouldnt 180rwhp require crazy cams? which means the idle would be all jumpy?

if this is for real though, i will probably take the motor off your hands

Unfortunatley I have no dyno sheets, the previous owner was a guy that was all over the place and stored all his stuff on it by his mother's in Flordia for easy access (he lived in Maine), but his mom threw it all out since it sat there for so long she didn't think he needed it anymore.which really sucks.

As for the engine's idle - believe me - it chugs like a muscle car, but the idle is very smooth...as in it doesn't go up and down in rpm's, and isn't all uneven.

Yea, im still consitering buying it, but yea, If you guys want pics ill help and show them, yea and just so you all know all the panels dented hard core (dont expect to fix the body) also only one of the STs is good, and in that pics, that is the frame sitting on the ground.

Thanks for putting the pic up.

And as I've bluntly said in my ad, yes the body is completely crapped out, I told this to the guy that came to buy it..but for some reason he thought "completley crapped out" meant "oh i could still part it out and make $$ off of it "......but whatever.

As zemus said, i'm not parting out the car.

The ONLY thing i'll part out (for the right price) is the entire engine itself...and IF and ONLY IF that happens, i'll part out the rest of the body, but I'd like to wait and see if I can get rid of the entire car before then.

headers were bored out...I was skeptical for awhile when I got it too, I admit, but after I got it all healthily running, there's no doubt in my mind it's beefed up - it's just too damn loud.

As I've said - everything's been customely done for this engine..I have no clue what it all has in there that most don't and vice versa.

There are a few members on NICO (240sx.org) that have seen it in action before whatever the fuck happened to it (when he was trying to sell it for 6k in mint condition) and one assumed it had a SR swap, and was floored when he heard it was a N/A KA24E, and the other said it was very decently fast nice car......too bad no one knows what really happened to the body and just how it became so messed up.

Gonna give it to the weekend - after that - it's yours...I could put it up on Ebay with a $500.00 starting price just to see what I can get out of it..but in all honesty I'd rather give it to you so you can clean it up, throw it in a car, and actually post up some numbers so not only I, but everyone else can stop having their doubts about it and have the mystery solved one way or another.

The ONLY track time this car has ever run was a 15.6 in the 1/4 mile, with bald tires, spun the tires all the way through 3rd gear, a slipping clutch, and running VERY rich.....so if this was perfectly tuned up and you got perfect traction - it is estimated to be a high 14 sec. car, but as we all know, we'll never know until it's put into action...which I hope zemus will be able to do someday...as it looks like no one else is going to take the risk on this thing.

doesnt matter if its custom if it cant be done, read this:

Pistons: Hypereutectic or Forged?

Hypereutectic Pistons use a high silicon (12-18%) content & are CNC machined to make a stronger casting (People used to call it "Forged Aluminum") They are more than enough for all, save serious race applications. Plus they are lighter, have better ring seal, & less thermal expansion. All things that turbo-charged cars like.

Turbo V6 High Performance Hypereutectic Aluminum Pistons are especially formulated aluminum alloy with substantially higher silcon content than pistons made from conventional aluminum alloy material. Hypereutectic refers to a Supersaturated condition of silicon in aluminum. These pistons have an average silicon content of 16.5% compared to 9.5% to 10% silicon in conventional aluminum alloy. Special casting techniques are used to disperse the additional silicon particles uniformly throughout the aluminum base metal. This characteristic, combined with silicon's extreme hardness, gives Hypereutectic aluminum pistons greatly increased wear resistance in the pin bores and on the piston skirt. http://www.paeenterprises.com/GrandNational56.html

and this explains the alloy pretty good:

Ryan,
You are correct about the hypereutectic stuff. There is no such thing as a hypereutectic springs, rods, and valves. I have only heard of pistons. There is a dyno shop in Madison, the same place where mustangs suck car came from, a guy that works their used to own his new 240. It is hard to beleive all the engine mods, the only way to see would be to dyno it or pull it all apart. But why would someone dump 4 grand in a sohc engine when they could have boughten a swap that would have put out the same horespower for much less. I am not saying mustangs suck is a bad seller I just think he got lied to by the guy who owned it in Maine. Just my 2 cents!

There'd be no reason for the guy in Maine to STILL talk about the engine then - it's been 2 yrs. if he was lying about it, I think he would of let it go by now.

This engine has been seen in action, and when it was in mint condition the previous owner posted about it all the time...so if he's lying to me - he was also lying to himself.

And no no one's HEARD of hypereutectic springs etc etc etc, but as i've said a hundred times - this engine was customely built - hypereutectic is just a term, and it's been done to all the internals customely from a engine company in Maine....the company BUILDS engines, they don't order parts and then put it in them.

This guy wanted to see how much he could get out of a NA SOHC engine, he has TONS of money and was just a curious person (there are a few of them on the N/A path) - since this 240sx, he's owned a corvette, buick grand national and now is on a Stealth - he mods the shit out of them - and then sells them to start a new project - just his hobby I guess.

You would be correct when you say I don't know much on engines - I'll give you that most definitley - Maybe they were just cryogenically treated for those parts, and the engine builders decided to just put "hypereutectic" in front of everything instead of trying to find the correct term *shurg* I have no clue - They all underwent a strenghtening process...what it is exactly, you won't know until you find out I suppose - the company said "hypereutectic", but might of meant "cryogenically" for certain ones over others.

If anyone ever intends to make any real power with this motor, it will need REAL pistons in it. Hyperucraptic is a nice way of saying CAST pistons. They come stock in plenty of cars (mustangs included)..........i deal with supercharged mustangs on the dyno on a daily basis, and the list of crap in this motor looks like someone got fucked if they really put 4000 in it..........or at the very least got a bogus list of shit that does not exist.

This coming from someone who works at a shop that builds engines and produces some fairly quick cars ( our shop 10.5" tire car laid down 980rwhp on motor)....so take it for what its worth. the motor may very well be strong for an NA KA............but both the power and the parts claimed are pretty much BS.

would really like to see the car on a dyno tho.......hell if someone brought it to my shop id do it for free.

I sure do still bad mouth 3si, just a bunch of fags.
