Hi my names is James, I'm new here. This looks like a really great forum, I just had a few little question and I was woundering if anyone could help me with it...I just wanted to know if anyone knew if the NSport turbo kit would fit in a s13 or not... And I was also woundering, why are all the ka turbo kits, manifolds, ect, for s14's and not the s13? sorry to bring these questions up because they more then likely are brought up quite often, but if anyone could help me out I would be greatful.

-James

Last time I checked, NSport made a kit specifically for the 240sx. As far as why these companies tend to make S14 kits? Well, it's to make money. What their reasoning is, I don't know. But I guess they think they can make more money off of it.

BTW, and S14 manifold will fit a 91+ S13 KA.

Those companies are simply miss informed, the first one most likely used S14 as a test car, so they list the kit to fit that car, and all other companies probably copied other kit, or at least used that as a model

Its just a matter of getting threw the static of aftermarket parts.

For example, a 95-99 maxima front strut bar will fit 98-01 AltimaEagle talon A pillar will fit 93-01 AltimaAudi A4 head lights is a very close swap of 93-97 Altima head lights.

well, the thing is, any kit that says it will fit the S14, will mostly fit the S13. The manifold will bolt on and such. But the intercooler piping won't fit unless you modify it, the intercooler probably won't mount the way they intended it, and thought I don't know this for sure, I'm guessing the master cylinder clearance between cars could differ slightly, since I've seen some S14 manifolds on S13 cars and there is like 1/8" between turbo and brake reservoir.

when you order it tell them its for an s13. the difference i see would be the downpipe and possibly the coldpipe but i doubt that. everything else would be the same

the IC pipes aren't the same, they won't fit without modifying them.

Ref the master cylinder: switching the anti lock for a standard fixes that problem, doesnt it???????
