into a 96 200sx? I have a chance to buy a mint 200sx 1.6 with a bad engine. I have a 91 B13 Sentra with a great running 1.6 and would like to swap my engine into the 200sx. Will it bolt up and accept the accessory's ect? I've heard yes and no and need a true answer. Thanks for any help anyone can give.
The 200sx is a beautiful car with all the options working a/c sunroof and all power options 91k miles and I would hate to miss out on getting it if the swap will work.

That's a good question. Seeing as how you are going from OBDI to OBDII, I'd bet at the very least you'd have to swap out the engine harnesses and ECU as well.
Things get a bit hairy when you think about A/C and stuff like that though.
You might be better off just sourcing another engine from an OBDII Sentra/200sx.

Engine swap wise you will have no issues. I have swapped a Highport OBDI SR into a ODII g20 without any hiccups except extending the knock sensor wire.
