As compared to running it out of oil intentionally?

Seriously, look around for people who are doing swaps. &nbsp;Often they have taken great care of their car/engine (including oil - doh <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>) and are looking for very little to get them out of their garage. &nbsp;Check here, 240sx.org classifieds, partstrader.com, and FA. &nbsp;Might take a few weeks, but I see them all the time.

I've seen stock KA24DE's with around 80k on them go as low as $500 with everything. o_O

I just looked at how horrible my grammer was there and almost fell of my chair. What I meant to write was

&quot;What did you do? Run the engine with no oil accidentally?&quot;

I was being mean... but I guess if you forget to put the plug back in then fill it or something ridiculous or something like that.... I wouldn't admit to that though...

[lynchmob93240]

actually what happened with the oil was that I had checked about mnth ago and then &nbsp;i ran out and the light never came on to tell me i was out and so i ran on it till it blew!! It sux now I either have to go to a junkyard or buy a new motor!!

I personaly would go with the SR20DET, u might aswell upgrade to a better engine, cuz yours exploded

and HEY FNSHOW,

[lynchmob93240]

Im not to educated on engines so what exactly is this? SR20DET
and how much

[Arcane]

there's a lot of thread regarding the sr20det...just use the search function...it's a lot easier that way...

that almost happened to me last year. got my oil changed at a dealership and they forgot to tighten the plug. drove around and oil light came on, so I pulled over to the gas station, checked the dispstick and there was no oil. good thing I stopped, go it towed and everything was fine. my friends told me I should've kept driving and blow my engine so I can get a new one, since I didn't change it they'd be responsible for it. ####, I should've done that.

that sucks for you tho, not having the light come on too. good luck.
