Is the difference between a KA24DE and a KA24E great enough to justify holding out for a 240 with one or the other? I'm not looking to do any crazy performance modifactions to either. Any major pros and cons to one or the other? I'm particularily curious to know if the less complex E would have a greater reliablity/longevity... Any help is greatly appreciated

only other downside about gettin an S13 with a KA24E, its gonna be a late 80s model. If you get a 91-93, they have the DE motor and also have a factory LSD, its a VLSD, but still an LSD. Eitherway, the KA series are good motors, DE or E. My friend has over 300xxxKM on his motor without rebuild.
