What about a '98 whats it pump out at the crank?

Same?

ka24de's from 93-99 put out 150 at the crank. that equates to 122-125 at the wheels on a dyno. the 00-01 engines came with 155 so maybe 2-3 more at the wheels than previous years.

i found a dyno reading for the ka24e and it said:

154hp@5200rpm
166ft-lbs@3000rpm

www.datsuns.com/Tech/engines/ka24e.html

is there a difference between the ka24e and the ka24de?

sleep,

you listed an 'NX stage 1 kit' -- is that stage 1 turbo?

those numbers are either for a modded engine or at the flywheel. the difference between a ka24 E and a DE is the DE has twin cams.
nx stage 1 is the Nitrous Express kit. its just a fancy name for their wet setup with a single fogger.

oh -- see, i thought you were referring to an NX kit as in...a turbo designed for the NX2000

i heard that there isn't much as far as aftermarket stuff for the 2nd gen altima -- i checked southwestautoworks and didn't find a whole lot

its all the same performance wise. its just that obd2 sucks ass. what can you do?

fugiot · Aug 19th, 2003, 06:58 PM

I thought the KA was pumping ou 160hp. Or is that just in the 240sx?

**Asleep** · Aug 19th, 2003, 08:01 PM

niether one puts out 160. 155 for 00-01. 150 for 93-99. the altima engine even has a better exhaust cam profile than the 240 ka24de does. in fact, mod for mod, the altima is still faster.

here's a dumb question -- what's the obd2?

**Asleep** · Aug 20th, 2003, 09:56 PM

on-board-diagnostics system, first and second generation or version, whichever you prefer. obd1 was real friendly with mods. obd2 has no desire to see them and tries to make the engine more emission friendly.

linus22277 · Aug 25th, 2003, 04:00 PM

so how does the obd2 hinder mods exactly? is there a way to get around it?

**Asleep** · Aug 25th, 2003, 09:08 PM

you can always swap to obd1, but its illegal and not really for someone thats not sure about what theyre doing. it hinders by not letting you advance timing, by screwing with the air/fuel ratio to keep an emission friendly profile and it, for lack of a better description, ignores the mods.
