OK, I HAVE FEW QUESTIONS ABOUT HOOKING UP MY 1997 NISSAN 240SX (KA24DE).

QUESTION1(THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE): ARE UNORTHODOX RACING Underdrive Crank Pulley GOOD FOR YOUR CAR OR ANY UNDERDRIVE CRANK PULLEY.I HEAR THAT IT GAVE YOU POWER BUT I ALSO HEAR THAT IT TAKES POWER FROM YOUR BATTERY AND ALTNATOR SO ITS NOT WORTH IT.

QUESTION2: ARE THERE ANY PLACES OUT THERE THAT SELLS CAM GEARS AND/OR CAM SHAFT FOR THE KA24DE ENGINE.

QUESTION3: ARE THERE ANY PLACES OUT THE THAT SELLS GAUGE FACES AND/OR TAIL LIGHTS FOR A 1997 240SX.

QUESTION4: IS THERE A PART OUT THERE THAT I CAN PUT ON MY COLD AIR INTAKE THAT WILL STOP ANY WATER OR MOSITURE GETTING INTO THE ENGINE. MY AIR FILTER IS ALMOST LIKE TOUCHING THE GROUND. IF YOU LOOK THROW THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE FRONT BUMPER YOU'LL SEE THE FILTER, ITS RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE LEFT SIDE WHEEL WELL.

Answer1: I've never heard of the pulley doing that. The only thing that pulley does is lighten the crank rotating mass, so it's able to rev slightly faster.

Answer2: Yes, Check with JimWolftechnology, or KA-T.org.

Answer3: Um...I dont' really worry about that stuff, check with ebay.

Answer4: Yes, I forgot the name, I see alot of them in import mags.

Correction answer 4: Bypass valve, or something like that.

to answer #3, get the SE model gauges, they're really nice. as for the tail lights, what kind are you looking for? please don't get euro's on a S14, you will rice it out to hell.

Cams aren't worth the money unless you are FI same with ECUs. They dont get faster without FI. If you really are that focused on strait line performance and must keep the 240 (its not built for a drag strip) use NO2

1. Pulley's are great for economical hp savings. Before you put a crank pulley on you might want to take it to a machine shop to make sure it's crossed balanced. Overtime a small imperfection can be bad for your engine, be on the safe side.

2. I have heard of some but nothing off the top of my head. Remember the KA has a long stroke so it's going to hav reving limitations even if it breaths well.

3. There is a great light conversion for the S-14 IMO, and it's made by Nissan. The 95-96 S14 rear lights are sexy, I can't stand the rears on my 97. In general save your money for go fast and fuck the look good, this isn't FnF.

4. It's called a bypass valve, AEM makes them for their first gen cold air intakes. Last time I checked the V2 didn't have one yet. Unless you don't plan on driving it in the rain, ever, I would stay with the short ram. Hydrolock is a motherfucker...

Hope that helped
