ka-t cuz you can spend 2200+ on an sr swap and only have ruffly 200+ hp
or you can spend the same on a bottom end build on a KA slap a turbo on it with a tune then bamm.. 250+hp and more torque

VG30DETT - strong bottom end, reliable, stock twin turbo, stock fuel pump can handle 700hp, lots of high hp potential on stock block, and because it's a challenge to work on!

KA, it had low mileage back then, and I was a fan of the midrange [workhorse] powerband, especially for daily driving and occasional fun use.

I picked SR because it's the best motor choice for an S13 platform.

Um yea you are wrong. Not to mention which one do you think is gonna be more reliable?

Here is my profound statement

If a KA was better for boost Nissan woulda done it.
