:help I have to replace the engine in my car (240 sx 93' auto)The other engine is identical except that it was a manual trans. The guy at the auto wrecker tells me that according to his computer all parts are the same except for the throttle body and wiring harness which is a ten minute switch over. He told me to not let any mechanic rip me off by telling me otherwise. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

he is right. swap the throttle body with the tps from your engine to the new one. also the pilot bushing will need to be replace with one for an auto

Auto not use teh bushing de piloto.

Or in english: Flexplate with torque converter bolted to it. The nose of the torque converter fits in the end of the crank without a bushing (pull out the one for the manual), unless I have completely lost my mind. I would hate to see him spend a day hunting for a pilot bushing for an application that does not exist (again, unless I am completely wrong. Which I thought happened once, but I was mistaken). :)
