Says it all right there, yes we are all lose. <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

Umm... not only is that statement ignorant, but also incorrect. How can someone be trendy, and different??? You contradict yourself. The KA is for people that like a challenge with good results. The KA is harder to get running turbo'ed. It is Definately more of a challenge to tune, and it's more likely something will be done incorrectly and you'll blow something up. But when push comes to shove, and you have laid out the time and money and done the labor yourself, you will have a beast that you can truly be proud of, and will more than likely nose out any SR with the same money. Espesially if you go about the way I plan too, and Ace. Peice it together. So your statement about the KA is incorrect. Should be:
The KA is the engine for the 240sx (not 180sx) enthusiest.
and you statement about the SR is right on.</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>
How can someone be trendy, yet different? I would say that it's trendy to be different right now.
Well, as I have an SR, and I don't consider myself a ricer, then maybe you could have figured out that that whole statement was sarcastic. I personally respect both engines very much, and was only saying that because people saying the KA-T is better were implying that the SR is for JDM ricers...I don't actually think the KA-T is for trendy assholes, I just said that to show how ridiculous it is to say that the SR is for JDM ricers.
And what you just said is totally ridiculous. I don't know what you run in your car, but say that the statement about the SR is right on? Show some respect. My SR powered car, and a whole lot of peoples SR powered cars are much faster than yours.
"When push comes to shove, and you have laid out the time and money and done the labor yourself, you will have a beast that you can truly be proud of"...
Yeah, and thats exclusive to the KA and all, considering that my SR install took place in my garage...but I can't be truly proud of it or anything, because its so easy compared to the KA-T.
The KA-T more of a challenge to tune? More of a challenge to run right, maybe, but I'd say that the reason the SR isn't as fast in the states is because people don't have tuning experience like they do in Japan.
Yeah, KA-T peeps need to get over their big "no replacement for displacement" dicks and realize that there are a lot of SR powered cars that can beat the shit out of and KA-T car you see out there; SR peeps need to get over their big "JDM" dicks and realize that just because its torquey and relatively low-revving doesn't mean that its a bad engine - I haven't seen an SR built in the states that can beat the fastest KA-T.
Get over yourselves...any way you go, you'll have a great engine, that suits your purposes. Don't tell me that the KA-T is better, that it generates more pride - I built my car with my two fuckin hands, I'm proud, and I knew I used the engine that was best for me - not the one that was best for aceinhole or sykikchimp. I like high end hp over low end torque - so therefore, I'd rather have the SR.
