well, does it? Everywhere I have looked the nismo thermostat is listed for the KA24DE, but none mention the E. Does anyone know for sure whether or not they use the same thermostat? Thanks.

Your missing the point, I cant just buy that one piece, that would be a waste of S&H, I would have to order several other, bigger items to make it worth the order, if you get my drift.
