I was just wondering if anyones heard about any companies developing new parts for the ka24E or DE, like a new intake manifold, fuel rail, headers, etc. It seems like we've been slightly shafted in this area...

but it is ok... we can run stock and beat hondas with those extra mods......

oh definately, but I think it'll be cool when we can do even more, u know? Especially for those that can't afford a turbo or engine swap. Like me, lol

3rd generation  HotShot headers are being manufactured (now or soon).  I talked to them recently and they'll let me know.  It's now a 1-piece design & installation problems should be minimal now.  
AEM just entered with their intake system.
Kiwi developed a tubular turbo exhaust manifold
B&M came out w/ the best short shifter the 240 has ever seen.

Greddy has also developed a turbo kit for the KA.  It was presented at a car show.  No information whether it will be marketed/produced...

JWT has developed lightened cams for the KA DOHC.  No information on production outlook...

so, we're not doing as bad as I thought... anyone know if those new hotshot headers replace the cat or not?

I think HS's new header will have a cat incorporated with it...seems like I read that somewhere.

Very cool. That won't be just for the s14 will it?

I really have no idea.  I hope they don't shaft us S13 guys and gals.

I got lucky.....they're frikkin paying me to go to college!!! &nbsp;Well...I guess I do kinda have to work for it...I have to maintain a 3.5 gpa and that ain't easy.

I'm just a lazy travel agent and an energetic car freak. It works just fine. HotShot makes headers for S13s now. It's GReddy who decided to only produce them for 14s. Those suckers. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> Stillen has some parts for us. West has lots of links on zilvia.net, I'm sure there are plenty of resources.
Yesterday I placed an order on a short-shifter for my boyfriend's '96 &nbsp;240 (a b&amp;m one) so I'll let you guys know how it is when we install it. It should be pretty dope as opposed to OBX. &nbsp;

Hey all, especially you college folk, he asked for NEW developments lol :) &nbsp;Try to keep up heehee

If that's directed towards the HS header stuff, I know HS has a header out for the S13 and S14 now. &nbsp;I was adding that I believe the 3rd gen. header that you mentioned will supposedly have a cat incorporated into the header.

Something that some of y'all already know about...unstable-hybrids is supposed to be working on a supercharger for the KA24E with plans for one for the KA24DE.

hmm, a supercharged 240sx. I dunno if I like the sound of that... I'll just wait till I can turbo my engine <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
