fuckin a dude, search search search search search search. this gets asked at leace once a week. search before you post ANYTHING on this board.

Alvaro98GSX · Dec 8th, 2006, 07:05 AM

Ive done some search, but it doesnt say anywhere which one is better then the other, so I have to post to see if theres anyone who knows about them.

thats cause theyre not better than each other.

if i can recall this question has been answere numerous times.

Remember this forum has more than one page. Search back to about uh..last week? like term said it gets asked at least once a week. all the sr's are the same. the only difference is the VTC found on s14's and s15's. this prevents you from putting some serious power down. Just go with the KA.

yeah what zellx said ka modified dats all. i have an sr and theres really no difference between the engines. ka's are nice they have more displacement.

I think they finally settled this debate. If you got money to throw out, go SR. if you want a good and I do mean good street engine, go with the ka.

I'm thinking about going CA.

Into a '90 the CA18 will be the easiest swap.

surfer240sx · Dec 10th, 2006, 09:28 PM

yes the ka24e in the 89-90 and the ka24de for the91 and later models search for hours read old posts and learn then post things not answered (not many)

how would it be easiest? The CA and SR swaps are pretty much the same.

what z said the ca and sr dont make an absolute difference. the sr is actually easier in my opinion.
