    Default Callout any N/A 4 banger

    I'm calling out any N/A 4 cylinder. 40 roll to 140. and for those of you that think NOS is N/A, it's not. And no bikes either, I know someone out there with one would have said something.

    I know I'm going to lose to some cars out there, but I just want to see where my car stands since it can't make it to Commerce next week.

    The call out is for the week after Tuner Fest, or what ever this next week's event is called.

    I have a KA powered 240sx, and it is N/A

    First of all your 240 has a speed sensor that'll cut you off somewhere between 115-130. If you've disconected the speed sensor to go faster than that your speedometer wont work, and your gagues cluster stops at 120. Even if you've found away around these problems it will be a really long race cuz 240's dont pull too hard on top end, I would know I have 2.

    Im not trying to make you sound dumb Im just giving you the facts.

    PS: Dont call me out my s14 got rearended last week and my s13 is going through some serious work right now.

    unless I have an Auto ECU, then there is no speed cut. And that is true that they don't pull very hard top end (when they're stock).

    240's dont pull hard period, unless you put alot of money in them.
    Like I said I have 2 and they're fun little street cars but they're not all they're cracked up to be.

    depends what your definition of hard is. I'm talking N/A 4 banger hard, not vette hard

    i dont think you can tell him ow is car runs just becuase you've owned one. you dont even know whats done to his car. And i've seen it run. The car is quick for an n/a ka. surprisingly quick

    most n/a 4 banger ppl won't get to 140 quick...long race = good chances of getting hit by cop. Races are suppose to be quick and be over with. I can only imagine both cars past 120...trying to reach 140 lol. I'd say 120 race would be quick and clean...gives plenty of room either car to pull on the other one. My 2 cents

    Hope your tires are the correct speed rated, if not, goodluck winning the race alive.LOL. And you trying to 140 in a n/a 4 banger, I not a good idea. It will take you a long time to get there. It would be better if you were racing a to 140 with a car on turbo. But oh well its your call, do what you want. P.S. don't forget the radar detector, or you're screwed!!!

    tires rated for 192mph. I'm not here to argue either, if people think N/A 240s are slow. fine with me. I still wanna run to 140 though

    I wasnt saying ur KA was slow I think the KA is a fun engine I perfer it over the SR in some cases. KA's have fun bottom end torque, I just dont think they would perform well on top end. I've never seen ur car I'd like to though... sounds like you got a nice build and I like seeing something other than SR's.

    don't be a dumb ass!!! I already know I'm not the slowest.

    but then again you already know that, since you don't want to run me with your GTS or LS civic.

    I just wanna see where my car stands, jack ass.

    my car runs just fine, but I didn't finish my latest mod yet.
