hello, i purchased my friends 90 240sx, well long story short he bought a 95ka, unknowingly it was dif that the s13 engine in the car. so as the car sits, it has the 95 transmission, engine, harness and ECU. i have a CA18DET harness that i can chop up and use parts off of if need be, so instead of getting a s13 ecu, wiring and intake and all that. i am going to wire up the 95 wiring, i know its OB1 but im having trouble finding the correct body plug pin out so that i know which wires do what.

Here you go - On www.240sxtech.com, there's an article putting a DOHC KA into an 89-90 240sx. Should help you out.

That connector looks like the dash connector from the 89 S13. You need to switch that connector out with the tan connector off the DOHC harness so you can still run the SOHC dash harness.

^I agree with what AZ said, 240SX tech has everything you need for the full swap.

He has all of the wiring videos on youtube

That connector is way too small to be the dash to engine harness connector. And you dont have to switch to a tan connector you just have to repin it if it were that connector but its not. That connector looks like an obii connector



AND TO THE OP
Do yourself a favor. Just buy a s13 intake manifold, distributor, coil, ecu and harness. There is absolutely no reason to make such a problem for youself for something that you benifit nothing from. To be different? Well people have already done it. So just do yourself the favor and do it right the first time. Cause chances are youll run into more then one problem. Youll get fed up. Youll sell the car and someone else will do it the way you should of.


Just my words of wisdom. Take it or leave it I dont care.

Already bought all the stuff. I was just trying to not spend more money, considering I just bought the car.

I can understand that but hou would end up buying more in the end from the "I think its this part" resell the other parts you dont need. S14 parts sell for more you might even come upn ontop. Keep the s14 upper intake tho it has no butterfly flaps. Just make sure to swap out the water sensors
