Thu, 28 October 2004 08:18 Guys, I'm just stirring the pot and having a little fun.... only to make u aware, if nothing else. I really don't care a whole lot what anybody decides to build. I'm certainly not here to convince. Most folks r brainwashed into thinking u can't take 'non-performance' motors and go ridiculously fast with LESS money - smart *open minded* people have proved that countless times. To say a sohc 'truck motor' is not worth modifying is plain silly imo. I'll leave it at that. ..and to clear up a few things; >>"you don't have easy access to more modern alternatives" Dead wrong on that >>"For starters no-one makes performance parts for 22R's over here" Only pistons are 22r specific and needed for a 'heavy hittin' 22r. Instead of $$pending on performance parts, I've seen some folks buy up cheap spare motors from the junkyards, learn/sharpen their tuning skills, and boost 'em until they pop then stick in another. Does this approach work ? Trust me, u don't wanna meet up with these guys on the street or strip, they live to spoil your day We starion guys send/receive parts from australia often. U have goodies I won't change my mindset. No need to. I've done EXACTLY what you're saying by replacing the 'truck motor' dohc 2.4 from my u.s 240sx, with a ca18det even tho I know a turbo ka24de torque will destroy a CA/SR, mod for mod, dollar for dollar. Why ? I wanted something plug n play right then and couldn't be bothered, even tho I do all my fabricating and tuning. No regrets... and besides, I had no intention on keeping the car or making a monster outta it. It made more sense to me too, yes [Report message to a moderator]
