so yeah, Jim Wolf has a stroker kit coming out for the SR20 that strokes it to a 2.4! I hadn't been on their site in a while, and came across it while browsing, so I called them to see how much it was. The guy said it wouldn't be available till late this year, and would cost $4495!!! Crank, sleeves, rods, and pistons. I thought the Japanese brand kits were expensive, eventhough you are getting more out of this one.

hmmmmm....Do I buy $400 pistons like I was planning on, or just toss in the extra 4 large for the kit? prolly not gonna happen, but it'll be cool to see someone go for it.

No one here has any knowledge or experience hence its a "not even availible yet" product, so no reviews on as if its worth ur money or not... If you got some turbo upgrades, go for it.

come on, you know you want a sr24, just wait for us to release the beast

i was just jokingly making a reference to how expensive it is. I realize that no one has a kit that doesn't even exist yet.

I was hoping for a more reasonable price from a domestic company, but I'm sure they've got lots of money wrapped up in R&D

trust me, this kit will be well worth it, jim doesnt waste his time on something unless it has a purpose.

woah....I didn't know you guys were on these boards.

My question is why 2.4? Most of the other kits are 2.2 liters. IIRC

for 4500 you could just build a ka24 with forged internals.

I like the idea of SR24.. cant wait to see one :)

it will probably look the same as any other SR motor =)

that is retarded. the cylinder walls will be very thin and its an alloy block to start with.

ka24DE is 2.4 liter to start, can be bored even more (which evens up the bore to the stroke), and other than that, loses nothing to the sr20det. but its not jdm. *cries crocodile tear*

ford lightnings are trucks with truck motors. are you suggesting that they are slow and undependable?

heh, cute.

On Topic...

(1) That an SR man?

(2) Its just the 2.4 ....heh

OptionZero
09-03-2004, 02:20 PM
Oh yeah, aren't the KA cylinder walls thing to begin with, thereby limiting and increase in bore? I'm really asking...I haven't heard of any KA25's or KA26's.

cause 2.4 is bigger then 2.2 silly :doh:

yes. as are corvettes cause they have truck motors also. super sluggish and they break down all the time. :duh: [/sarcasm]

Bad example. Lightnings ARE slow and undependable.

for those who are confused it isnt stroked to 2.4l, its bored .2 liter then stroked .2 liter

andrave
09-03-2004, 08:17 PM
ka24E can be bored to 2.5 liter. but thats the max. and even then I wouldn't want to force any more induction on them.

Well thats wut the freakin sleeves are for. But hmm...a 2.4 SR with still the same rev capabilities. gotta be sweet...i miss my KA cuz of the damn torque. WOnder if with this setup...you can still bump rev to bout 10k with headwork. *drooolz....2.4 with 10k revs*

DuffMan
09-04-2004, 12:29 PM
You'd have a better chanse of getting a KA to 10k rpms than an SR.

andrave
09-04-2004, 01:20 PM
when you bore the hell out of a ka24DE... it makes the bore more equal to the stroke. therefore it would be more stable at higher rpms.
get a new intake manifold and some cams, and of course aftermarket rods... who knows?
but the ka24E can safely go to 9000 and thats already been done.

umm...10k rpm is the norm out in japan...atleast in kadena it is. rechipped sr with big ass turbos...10k redline, sometimes none at all. blow it, swap another block in. Stiffer valve springs and RAS stopper and your good to go.

Oh wait wait wait. I get it now. They use the metric system. So 10krpm in metric is probably only like 8k rpm over here. That must be it.










Either that or youre retarded.

who cares anyways...

after owning an SR and helping with a nice KA-T build i prefer the KA-T as well, but i dont expect anyone else to on my opinion.

and someone just said that the JWT kit isnt a 2.4 litre anyways.

looks like this thread is useless now.

is that how you get to 10k RPM? need a big assed turbo? or is it in the ECU?or does the chip go straight in the head>?

when i rebuild my sr20 for more boost im just going to get the sleeves, pistons and rods from him so i'll have a 2.2 from bore, not stroke.

If you throw enough money at any motor you can make it spin to 10k and produce 800hp at 2000 rpm but who cares....2k for an SR, 4k for the kit...godamn sunk 10k into just the motor of the car when you shoulda just put an LS1 in there in the first place.

maybe you should quit shooting people down since you obviously don't know much about how engines work, and what determines how high they can rev.

Well you when you put it like that, your completely unsupported statement that boring out an engine makes it able to rev higher seems perfectly reasonable now. :jerkit:
