I am curious which Nissan trucks came with any version of the KA motor. What models, trims, years, etc. Also about the actual engines. Did they get DOHC, SOHC, different compression, different cams, different injection, etc.
I was just curious, I always hear about these trucks...

All the 4 cyl Nissan trucks, Frontiers, and XTerras after 1990 iirc. KA24E, SOHC. Different cams, different pistons, different performance. The truck's model is lower hp, ~130, and higher torque, ~180. IMHO, they are vastly underpowered. My dad has one, a '95 extended cab, too heavy for the motor. Then again, it's a pickup, it ain't meant to be fast <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>
