How can you tell the difference between KA24E and KA24DE?
KA24E is a single cam motor and KA24DE is a dual overhead cam. The KA24DE has more horsepower and torque. The KA24E has higher compression ratio. The tranmissions and alot of the accessories are the same.
How much power can a KA24DE handle?
Stock KA24DE Engine Can Handle 500HP+ – www.ka-t.org.
How much hp can a KA24DE make?
Can KA24DE handle turbo?
^ the stock motor can handle 509whp ( Not proven by Back Yark Productions) but dyno proven somewhere in the 440whp. Reliably your looking at around 300-350whp. Personally i wouldnt go over 280whp or over 10-11psi on a medium sized turbo. SAFCII is fine as long as its tuned properly and your timing is setup correctly.
What’s the difference between the Nissan KA24E and KA24DE?
The KA24DE is very similar to the KA24E. The KA24E is SOHC with three valves per cylinder actuated by rocker arms, and the KA24DE is DOHC with 4 valves per cylinder and shim-over-bucket valve actuation.
How big is the inlet valve on a KA24E?
Inlet valves were 36.6 mm in diameter, the exhaust – 31.3 mm. These engines were called KA24DE. In contrast to KA24E, KA24DE engines have new oil pan and oil jets, modified pistons and crankshaft with compression ratio 9.5. On models for SUV compression ratio is reduced to 9.2 and 9.3.
Is the KA24E rotary engine a good engine?
KA24es were perfectly fine and reliable factory motors. The Rotary engine has never been know for its reliability but the amount of power it produces for such small displacement aswell as that high as F### factory rev limit. EJs were good engines too.
How often should I Change my Nissan KA24DE engine?
Valve clearance on cold engine: inlet and exhaust 0.28-0.36 mm. The engine has timing chain, which should be changed utterly rarely, usually every 180,000-200,000 miles of mileage (300,000 km). KA24 firing order is 1-3-4-2. Along with KA24DE, 2L KA20DE was produced. In 2004 KA24DE engine was substituted for more modern 2.5L QR25DE.

Are there any known issues with the KA24DE?
Just like any other engine, the KA24DE has a couple of known issues that are common. The distributor is known for failing on earlier versions of the KA24. Another prevalent issue is a rattling timing chain, which occurs when the timing chain gets loose from age and begins to rub against the timing chain cover.
What is the rev limiter on a Nissan KA24E?
The intake valve duration is 240°, valve lift is 10.4 mm (0.409 in); the exhaust valve duration is 248°, valve lift is 10.4 mm (0.409 in). The KA24E rev limiter is set on 6,500 rpm. The Nissan KA24E engine version for SUV uses a camshaft with duration 232°/232°, and valve lift 9.7/9.7 mm. For this engine, redline is lowered to 6,000 rpm.
