I know the sr20det is better motor and turbo but is the DE any better then the KaDe?

I would suggest the first thing you should do is to sift through posts in this and other 240sx forums... maybe even (gasp) use the mythical "search" function.

im sorry but i gotta be harsh...

1.) dont get an sr. any of them.
2.) sell your 240sx
3.) if you do truly want an sr, do some research. its amazing what you can find with a little effort and the internet. hell ill even get you started (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=sr20det+swap).

this is not me flaming, just giving my opinion. so dont jump on my ass. take what you will out of this post. this thread just really bums me out. it seems everyone lately just wants people to tell them what they want. can no one think for themselves anymore???:( :( :(

hmm, lets see...
you have 3 engines here.
one is a 2.4 liter, two are 2.0 liters.
It may at first seem obvious to pick the largest.
then you consider one of the smaller ones has the turbo.
those two can duke it out.
but the one that is small, and is na?
:-\
the de has lots of merits, but if its low cost you are after, the ka24 is where is at since its already in your car and you can get parts from your local u-pick-it yard.

The RWD SR20DE is a good swap.. for a 510, or a datsun roadster. oooh, or maybe a B210!

Someone I know lives in New Zealand and drives an S13 Silvia Q's with an SR20DE. It's slow. Well, not painfully slow, but stock KA24E slow. He's run 10.7's in the 1/8 mile... equivalent to mid-high 16s in the quarter.. woo woo!

swaping to a N/A engine would be ****ing pointless. you swap to get more horses right? sr20de will cost you, but you get nothing by doing it. stick with KA. unless, if you are loaded share the wealth bro.
