CA18DET Questions....

[89' 240SX]

Ok, i have read and searched and i have found that the CA engine is harder to find parts for and overall a good engine....... i have looked around online and i found the CA18DET for $1250 and it comes with:

JDM CA18DET '89-91 Silvia:

* Complete Motor - Block and Head * 5-Speed RWD Transmission * Ignitor Chip * MAFS * Electronic Control Unit (ECU) * Wiring Harness (Complete Uncut) * Coil Packs * Cam-Angle Sensor * Intake Manifold * Exhaust Manifold * Alternator * Starter * Power Steering Pump * A/C Compressor * Turbo

Ok, besides all that and the Nismo engine mounts...... what else would i need to make it run in the car......... Also i read that the transmission can use the SR or KA transmission mounts for the transmission....... but i need the Nismo engine mounts so it sits correctly.......

Also i didnt really look for the entire swap right up...... how hard is it....... and does anything on the body need to be cut......

Oh, this engine will be going into a 89' Coupe.....

any help would be great.....also if you know where i can get this cheaper and still has everything let me know thanks........

also please dont just tell me to use the search button..... i know what its for....

What's up bro, I'm in Greensboro NC. That sounds like i could be a good deal but i depends on how many miles on the engine. I got my engine from Jhot on ebay I got everything including fuse box modded ecu, 5spd transmission, fuel pump,side mount, and downpipe for about $1400. Take your time and you will find a good deal. make sure your getting your engine from a good supplier. I have seen a lot of people get screwed. You should think about getting a clutch, downpipe,boost gauge, oil/filter,plugs,front mount and power steering from a 92 and up 240. Another thing the Ka24e didn't have a knock sensor wired intothe lower harness so you will have to run it to the ecu. Also look into getting a 3" exhaust. I ran the stock exhaust for a while but it's like night and day difference.
