KA24DE
1. An absolutely magnificent and superior piece of machinery manufactured by Nissan USA. Heads and shoulders above its lame JDM counterparts *cough* SR20 *cough* with limitless power potential, and superior tuning ability. Motor for true tuners and Nissanaholics who don't chose to bitch out.
1. Wonder if that douchebag with the SR20 knows he just got owned by a KA24.
2. USDM (KA24DE) > JDM (SR20DET)
3. Whoa, what'd that guy turn in the 1/4 mile? He HAS to have a KA in that thing, there's no way an SR20 could do that.

ka24det
Unofficial moniker for a ka24de engine, that has been modified by adding a turbocharger and its necessary accessory components. This has become more popular over the past few years with Nissan enthusiasts as the interest in import cars and performance tuning has continued to rise. The original ka24de engine is a 2.4 liter, dual overhead cam, iron block engine, and was used in the 00–04 Xterra base XE, 98 Frontier, 93-2001 Altima, and 91-98 Nissan 240SX. The 240sx is a popular RWD vehicle in the drift racing circuit and well-known within the tuning world. Unfortunately, the naturally aspirated ka24de engine has a somewhat bad rap as a "truck engine", and in its stock form, only puts out 155 hp/160 ft. lbs of torque. Therefore, many of decided to perform an engine swap in favor of a sr20det
