you want 400hp with a 6k budget....build the KA, get nistune, s366 BW, 550cc+ injectors.....be happy.
I had a 400hp KA and it was fun, I now have a 2j making roughly 420+ (dyno'd at 372hp with an ebay t70 now running a holset hx40 and its def faster)

Do a lot of research but to save yourself time and money in the future, take your time and build it right. use the money to buy a 2JZ or RB and then keep saving up and building the engine or getting parts ready for the swap. I would rather have a reliable DD 300 hp SR20 than an unreliable 500 hp KA monster that is a time bomb that will blow any day.

Since I plan on a SR swap, here are some basic numbers you should know for an idea...this is assuming you dont find any awesome deals.
SR20DET + Tranny = 2-3k Making sure the SR is reliable = $100-$1000 Getting a shop to do the swap = $500-$1000 (you get what you pay for) Boltons and other mods = the sky is the limit, but you get what you pay for... |

seriously!!! explain this to me. i would like to educate my self on something you clearly know. (But i agree RB is a badass swap but not for the weak if you dont know about engines and how they operate and work dont bother with a RB) RB = real brains because thats what it takes to work on one and figure out the little problems it has. |

You can do whatever you want to any engine but if the tune is bad, any engine could be a time bomb...hence why i was using it as an example in taking your time and doing everything right. I know KA's can be extremely reliable if built and tuned right, as I plan on building the KA24 in my Nissan Frontier to be my lil tow rig. lol |

RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH.
and then you'll realize 2jz is the right way to go. an N/A-T build is the most cost effective and reliable way to get big power into your 240. but theres a lot of research involved.
