Quick question - anyone know of a decent, reputable place that can rebuild KA's? My car is dripping oil and it's pushing 177k, and my swap plans have been pushed down the upgrade list in favor of suspension first. If you know anyone good in my area (SoCal, 909-626-818-714) send me some contact info...my friend has an S13 1992 that's also looking for the same service, so there's actually 2 KA's waiting to be brought back to life

 

I'm ganna try and contact my friend to see if the shop he used to work at knows a thing or two when rebuilding KA's.

 

thank you sir. BTW off topic - the last few days, is it me or have you and I been the only people posting on the threads LOL!

I get my email notifications and it's all "-HyJynX- has just replied to a thread you have subscribed to entitled..."

LOL

 

What can I say...I'm a *****! lol, imagine how it would be like if I didnt post here anymore

 

like that "A Day Without A Mexican" movie. Whether you're Mexican or not. LOL

 

Heard about that movie...

"A day without THE postwhore"

lol

 

just wondering if you talked to your mechanic friend dude guy...

 

He hasnt gotten back to me, I will try calling him again today

 

Jynx my man... any luck sir?

 

I have left him 2 messages on the phone and left him messages on AIM..and nothing. =/

 

Well you get an A for effort

...the search continues...

 

Hey what happened tot he search? ...when i get my s13 ill be wanting to look for a rebuilder to =0)

 

yea id like to know a good mechanic or shop about fixing those KA's too, my car is starting to push 160K its best to have a future plan incase

 

Hmm how much longer till you get your sr motor. my car is about 151k and still runnign strong. might not be worth rebuilding if your gonna do a swap. might want to look into just buying another KA might be cheaper then rebuilding. Since everyone is doing swaps now a days KA's are pretty easy to come by. My friend got a 97 KA with 70k for 400 thats with tranny and ecu. Might cost more with parts and everything if you rebuild. but my suggestion is if you plan to do a swap just save up for it. don't throw money into the KA unless its a must.

 

well I'm pushing the 180k mark soon, and it's developed a constant yet small oil drip (2-4 drops overnight) but it still feels pretty good... I was just wondering just in case I decide to stay with the KA and maybe try MA-T mode some day.
