I am looking to try and get as much HP out of my engine as I can and I'm curious as to where I can go to get some performance upgrades for internal engines. Every google search I have done turns up nil, I even tried searching just the engine and got zilch. Not sure where to go or what to research so I am looking for a direction to go in.

I have the 1998 Frontier XE with the KA24DE 2.4 liter 4 cylinder DOHC. Like I said not looking to get handed the exact links to the parts I want just looking for a gerneal direction to start looking.

Thanks,

csagenlee

try www.4x4parts.com. go to their performance section and see if they have anything for the ka. you can always look at Nismo and see what they have. its the same enging thats in the 240 basicly. so im sure there are performance parts out there. you can even check ebay and see what you can find on there.

I found this on the link above that 2004offroad
suggested. I can't vouch for it, but it looks like it
should fit the 2.4. This plus decent catback exhaust
will give you a little more oomph off the line but to get
real power you'd need to look at some turbo options which
you have to really search for. The KA24DE was also used
in in the Nissan 240.

This was more for the 240's but might be applicable
somewhat. I don't know enough of the difference between
the KA24DE in the 240 vs Frontier.
