I just swapped a ka24e from a hardbody, into my 89 240 it's getting fuel just no power to the ignitor :wtf2: . I did everything correct swapped the intake, oil pan , and starter.
I've probably read about 100 forums i've tried almost everything, it cranks it just doesn't turn over. I've taken off and put back on the wiring harness about 3 times and still the same issue, grounds are good, but it still gets no power :mad: .
I don't know what else to do :facepalm: :frown: .

Hey, welcome to NicoClub! Are you using a FSM? There's lots of diagnoses instruction for the engines in there. You might want one for the truck you pulled from and one for your 240. You can view them or save them to your computer from here:

There's plenty of members here with the same engine, I'm sure they'll chime in eventually. More information can help others help you. What harness are you using, the truck or the car? What ECU? Do you have any of the engine from the 240sx laying around (like say another ignition coils assembly)? And, what makes you say you have no spark to the igniter?

Here's a link to a similar thread:
