... tried searching? Why didn't you ask the person you bought it from?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_SR20DET

From there, it narrows down the years. You can check what turbo you have (if it is still stock). I believe there's a few other ways to tell too (looking for VCT, etc, which most don't have that are imported over here).

But really, SEARCH!

Valve cover is the black thing on the top of the motor that says "Nissan" and "Twin Cam 16 Valve".

And besides the hose clamp, you need some bolts for your coil pack cover (the silver plastic plate in the middle of the valve cover).

I think it's funny that you know what an ECU is (and that yours is fried) and you don't know what a valve cover is.

Boy, I'd love to see you work on a carbureted car

Any S14 ECU should work with an S14 SR, BTW.

Did you try clicking on the link I gave you above?

Look @ the Comparison table which is basically near to the top of the page. There is only one type of blacktop w/ t-25...

If the picture you posted in the other thread is your engine, you don't have a T25....

Which reminds me... why did you post 2 threads?

to properly run the car you need another WC ECU....

you can not use an E5 or a 62 or a 60
