funny chat session
okay so i started out showing this guy from the ranger forums some pics of what i've been working on then things got ugly...
aftershock112r: what u doin to it? Makoto seven: restoration and modification Makoto seven: currently getting it ready for paint aftershock112r: awesome Makoto seven: undoing 14 years of crap takes a little more than two months aftershock112r: its an old 240 aint it? or is it a 180 Makoto seven: 240 aftershock112r: coo Makoto seven: 180's were never made in america aftershock112r: what motor is in it? Makoto seven: the 12 valve KA24 aftershock112r: ah ok aftershock112r: coo Makoto seven: i'm gonna build a 16valve turbocharged 2.4L motor Makoto seven: it's gonna be great aftershock112r: heh coo aftershock112r: i'd go with a bone stock SR20 aftershock112r: or a SR20DET Makoto seven: my setup will smoke a SR20 like a cheap cigar Makoto seven: on low boost ![]() aftershock112r: heh ok Makoto seven: 300ftlbs tq @ 7psi... aftershock112r: better build that bottom end up aftershock112r: lol Makoto seven: the SR has a horribly weak valve train Makoto seven: that's why i can't use it aftershock112r: im not talkina bout top end...bottom end Makoto seven: i need a dependable 350hp/tq at the crank and USEABLE torque Makoto seven: the numbers i just gave you are from a bone stock motor aftershock112r: a KA24 dont even have 200 aftershock112r: 1 turbo with 7psi will not bump it to 300 Makoto seven: mkay ![]() aftershock112r: and like i was saying, you better build your bottom end up if you are using the KA... aftershock112r: mmkay lol Makoto seven: i won't argue what i've seen plenty of times aftershock112r: ok aftershock112r: its what you've seen...do you know what goes into building a KA24 to 300hp? aftershock112r: your stock bottom end wont hold lol Makoto seven: i won't have a stock bottom end Makoto seven: but that isn't the discussion aftershock112r: right...so you saying a 160hp KA24 will go from that to 300, with single turbo @7psi? aftershock112r: got any tech articles on this? Makoto seven: 155 hp and pretty much aftershock112r: you better replace everything Makoto seven: okay, i think you need to read up on the KA motor aftershock112r: oh i have lol aftershock112r: and im an SR20 fan aftershock112r: and it really isnt worth the money to even work on that motor...SR20 has so much more potential Makoto seven: HAHA aftershock112r: thats like trying to make a non Cosworth escort a sports car lol aftershock112r: haha ok aftershock112r: do it, then show me aftershock112r: then i'll believe you Makoto seven: the main thing that screws up motors is too litlte fuel, anyhow aftershock112r: im a minitrucker, i dont go by what you are going to do...you build a rep by what you do aftershock112r: heh ok Makoto seven: i haven't seen one KA that just died under stress Makoto seven: you aren't listening aftershock112r: i am lol Makoto seven: i'm not saying i'm slappin a turbo on a stock motor aftershock112r: i know aftershock112r: i know what you are trying to do Makoto seven: so proving you wrong won't happen in this instance aftershock112r: yeah, do it, show me what you put in it...then put it on a dyno when you are done, even 2 yrs from now..until then, im with my SR20 Makoto seven: dude, almost all the SR's you know about are at 280hp or below Makoto seven: most people keep them relatively stock aftershock112r: nah dude Makoto seven: hell, they need 14psi just to hit like mid 200's aftershock112r: ok Makoto seven: the larger displllacement and iron block AND better valvetrain work in favor of the KA24DE aftershock112r: oh ok Makoto seven: i mean, even if the SR's top could hold up as well as the KA's it still wouldn't have an iron block and it still wouldn't have that extra .4 liter aftershock112r: yeah Makoto seven: displacement, materials, and engineering matter and as it stands the KA is one tough SOB Makoto seven: i'm well beyond being any sort of newbie to 240's and sure as hell not a newbie to motorsports aftershock112r: you race any? Makoto seven: besides for the amount of money it'd take to swap a stock SR into my car i could have over 300hp/tq from a KA-T that's build from the ground up with the good stuff. Makoto seven: of course i do aftershock112r: what do you race? Makoto seven: proffessionally? nothing Makoto seven: so you're a pro racer now? aftershock112r: huh? Makoto seven: you're asking the cars or the events? Makoto seven: i've raced and driven hard just about every performance car i can get my handss on aftershock112r: you said you arent new to motorsports..then what do you do Makoto seven: which is pretty much a lot aftershock112r: you work around cars? Makoto seven: my family owns a ford dealership aftershock112r: oh ok Makoto seven: wee' Makoto seven: we've done this all our lives aftershock112r: my family has been around cars since the 70's int he philippines Makoto seven: hell, i can't fight the urge to tinker with a computer case when i get bored aftershock112r: my dad raced slalom with his 180 Makoto seven: dude, that matters about as much to me as how much my crap weighed yesterday aftershock112r: i raced am minicarts b4 i left when i was 11 aftershock112r: yeah, you treat me as if i know nothing Makoto seven: good for him and you, i'm sure it was fun aftershock112r: you seem to know it all aftershock112r: thats good Makoto seven: actually you're doing all that my friend aftershock112r: like i said, do it..then show me aftershock112r: lol aftershock112r: ok Makoto seven: i know from everything i've read aftershock112r: i know from beeing around them Makoto seven: i used to be like you and think thej SR is god too till i started reading up on it dude aftershock112r: from my experience with my dad SR20's have been more reliable than KA24's Makoto seven: you think i just decided this on a whim? aftershock112r: nah Makoto seven: hell, do you think i decided to buy this car based on the same fickle urge? aftershock112r: naw Makoto seven: no dude, i got exactly what i wanted and as it stands the KA appears to be a hell of a lot tougher than the SR aftershock112r: im just sayin man, dont treat me as if im stupid aftershock112r: heh then great aftershock112r: prove it to me Makoto seven: how many cars do you see hitting 2500K? Makoto seven: 250K* Makoto seven: i'm not sayin your stupid Makoto seven: i'm sayin you are wrong Makoto seven: ![]() Makoto seven: from my point of view anyhow aftershock112r: i can take that man...but im just trying to defend my status, just like you are Makoto seven: if thats insulting to you then fine, throw a fit aftershock112r: but just another question, what do youy plan to do with this car? Makoto seven: i just feel that you are incorrect in your view of the SR Makoto seven: this whole conversation is kinda retarded anyhow aftershock112r: whats the purpose, is it for drag? autocross, track, time attack? Makoto seven: all of the above aftershock112r: ok aftershock112r: good luck with it Makoto seven: i want to do time attack and track though Makoto seven: drag is just something all of us have to do... lol aftershock112r: yeah Makoto seven: hey i'm a member of zilvia Makoto seven: you should join aftershock112r: naw man, thats ok aftershock112r: im just a fan, not really hard core into it Makoto seven: okay, you're missing out Makoto seven: yeah, i realize that aftershock112r: its just because my dad raced nissans aftershock112r: fell in love with them ever since, they tough aftershock112r: im into my trucks...maybe if i would have bought a car, it'd be diff aftershock112r: heh Makoto seven: i have and love both ![]() Makoto seven: actually i love all things automotive aftershock112r: but yea man,i really wasnt trying to down you...was just trying to defend my standpoint Makoto seven: i'm starting to grow an affinity for bikes too aftershock112r: heh yea aftershock112r: heh...i liek bikes, just will not ride them Makoto seven: seriously man, 7psi... Makoto seven: ![]() aftershock112r: but seriously, i was just defending my view....like i said, prove me wrong Makoto seven: i want a buell that's when he started yapping about all these bikes i didn't give a crap about so i said i had to go. yeah, i do realize that some of the actual numbers might have been off but that guy was probably creamin his panties at the thought of his god (er, i mean the SR). just thought it might be funny to read. enjoy! |

I always tend to stay the safe route, adding turbo to a non-turbo motor is asking for trouble. But a turbo engine, it runs just like from the factory - no worries. But then I don't care about making 300hp, I just want it to run good. ![]() |

my point was that for my application it seems to be the better choice. i said my numbers weren't perfect and that the conversation was pretty retarded to begin with.
its jsut funny to me when people think you're insulting them when you're simply disagreeing. hehe p.s. never said RW tq either... i said tq... average drivetrain loss is 15% so 15% of 300 would be like 45? i think that's what we call a ballpark figure ![]() |

I don't understand these Mini-Truck guys. How a big ass truck equates to performance is beyond me.

HAHAHA.. I'm so torn... the aim conversation is slightly on topic, but the b00ty pic is way off topic..
Ahh... ![]() It's close enough. Nice b00tay!, and I think I lost a couple I.Q points reading that. It sounded like 2 ricers arguing over which Type-Arrrhh sticker makes their 'whip' fast..
