I've got a few questions too. Why do we have a search button and a faq button if no one uses them??

Hey be nice...

The search button is pretty small and easy to overlook, espeecially for someoen who isnt used to internet boards.

On the old board it took some PPL months just to find out we had one.

The Silvia is the Japaness version of the 240. 240 started in 89-98. The 89-94 was s13 and used KA24E single ovh cam and the KA24de duel ovh cam. 95-98 are s14 and had KA24de engines. The first years 89-90 used just the KA24e. Very good engine used in trucks,stanza, and axxess van.

See 'ya on the boards,
