I have chose the CA for my 90 240 to keep with the correct JDM motor for the year of my s13 and that it has an Iron block. Is there a guide or FAQ for the CA install? Before I buy the motor and trans, I just want to make sure I know everything I need to get. And how the CA harness needs to be modified to "plug and play" in my 240. I also need to know what I have to keep off my KA and won't I don't. I know its a lot of questions, but I just want to be sure. ANd one more thing I read the "Where to buy thread" and I saw that a coupe members could get motors. Could one of you guys email me with your prices? Thanks in advance.

It's for the SR, but it's 99% accurate.

So the SR and CA install are 99% the same then?

Basically. There are a couple of solenoids that you could wire up and run some extra vaccum hoses, if you're feeling rambuncious. They certainly aren't nessicary to get the car to run and drive.
