it doesn't say it... it says "This motor is complete right down to every sensor attached to the motor.

What is included:

- throttle body

- upper and lower intake manifolds

- complete cylinder head

- complete engine block

- upper and lower oil pans

- complete turbo assembly w/ piping

- all sensors attatched to the motor

- fuel rail, injectors & harness"

I don't see the transmission there, or am I missing something...He goes on to say "This motor was pulled from a 1991 Nissan Silvia w/ 50,000 miles on it. This motor will work on any 1989+ Nissan 240sx or any Nissan you can think of. Motor was purchased for $1250 6 months ago and never used"And then specifically uses the word motor about 10 more times... not motorset. I'm pretty sure its just the motor. Even the item title says "motor" and the short description says "enigne, uncut harness, ignitor, tb, maf," no transmission is mentioned.

It could be a 1991, it would just have to be an early '91. Regardless, it looks like crap-ola to me.
