[Tanman1986]

Thanks you.....Yea I think she is sexy, but thank god there is a way for a 5speed swap......good deal

[Steady_One_S13]

I found the write up for the auto to manual swap for the s14. Hope this helps.Again, get the s14. Imho, it's worth it.zerothread/181139

if its a LE model why is it 4 lug?

[Tanman1986]

Thats a good question, Now I was told by the owner that it was a LE and LE meaning (Leather editon) if im currect??

But I would think that it would come with 5 lug tho, so I see your point

what do you make of that?

Welcome back...they always come back to Nissan! Nice looking MC, I really like those wheels and the stance that the car has. Engine bay pics yes?! Get one of those factory lips too...so fly this car!

[Tanman1986]

Get one of those factory lips too

Your read my mind.....I was lookin around yesterday for one. Only thing is, idk what color I want it to be lol ( The lip that is ) thought about black like the car, then thought about gray.....

Here is a Engine bay pic for ya :

I will be swaping it out for a Sr20 ( Im just not sure what Sr20 i want ) Im looking into the S15 Blacktop. I was up all last night looking for Swap info......

[positron1]

Keep the lip black! Bay is in good condition!

[Tanman1986]

Thanks and yea black will prob be the way I go....Looks better. I will Be selling the motor, Its only got 106K on it, im sure some one needs a good KA, im just not sure what tha asking price would be, its been a good while since i have been on here, any suggestions on the price I should ask for the motor?

[positron1]

You're asking the wrong guy about pricing engines because I sold my KA to a bud for $50. Friendship....always costing you money!

[Tanman1986]

$50?? lmao.....gah ive done stuff like that b4, Im always way to nice to my friends lol

[slidestyle69]

The conversion would be easy as picking your nose. If your mechanically inclined or have friends that are and money to buy them beer, then the swap will be easy. The car looks good and the price is right to me, so buy it and build it up

Thanks, yea i have some mechanical skills, built my own KA-T a few years back, but I just think its cheaper to do a SR20 build
