KA24 NEVARA
« on: Jan 15, 2004, 02:55PM »
I was wanting 2 respond 2 the thread posted in General Discussion about ka24 4wd's but it's been locked..

anyway.. at the last drift meeting in Adelaide ( Port Gawler) there was a Nissan Nevara rear wheel drive in the comp. It wasn't turbo'd and from memory it wasn't LSD equiped.

It was doing alright, it was able 2 smoke the rear tyres a fair amount but nothing really special when compared 2 what it was competing against.

Anyway... after attending the comp i started thinking how i would really love my trx 2 b rear wheel drive. Obviously it would b no straight forward conversion but for some1 who knowz what there doing and is a mechanical genious would it b possible 2 convert a pinny 2 rear wheel drive if a KA24 North 2 South motor was stuck in along with full Nissan Nevara running gear?

believe me i realise that this would not b no easy conversion but im stil linterested 2 know!

just a question, if your going to go thru all the trouble to go rwd, why would you bother with a ka24? they're really expensive compared to import engines, and obviously, although they're great engines, they have less power.

Yes, It would be so much easier to wack a SR20 in there....

Or even a CA
Well-well look. I already told you: I deal with the god damn customers so the engineers don't have to. I have people skills; I am good at dealing with people. Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?

you know the easiest way to do it would be to buy a silvia/skyline or whatever, and then remove the body shell, and then stick you pintara shell on.

still a big waste of time whatever way you go about it.

Probably be locked? Im surprised its lasted this long.

This has been covered in great depth before.
No need to stir people up again.

Damn straight. the headaches trying to get it registered wouldn't be worth it.
trxadelaide: it's NAVARA with an A
noss: VH45DETT (;D) not VQ, that's the V6.

a RWD U12 would be nice....but the engine bay isn't long enough for a longitudinally mounted engine.
