shouldnt be very hard to install. just tapping into a few wires on the ecu harness and mounting the unit. setting up....could get tricky. still need dyno time or a wideband to tune.

Too much for a simple 5 wire install.

Its very easy to install, if you don't mind splicing into your wiring harness. It shouldn't take more than a hour, then another hour at most to setup.

Well, on the apexi site there is the "US Update" available in their downloads that has some more nissan ones. Didn't work for me tho (ka24e, the diagram just didn't look like my ecu).

I ended up using the N3-b diagram in the book, which was right for all the wires but no knock sensor. One of the n3's should work for you.

For the KA24DE, you can find your diagram on the Apexi US Update, it is N-1b I believe, tuning isn't horrible, seems pretty straight forward, but don't bother spending $75 on a five wire install, spend 3 dollars, buy some splices at wal-mart and do it yourself.

I'd solder all the connections to and from the ECU. If you can't solder, then pay the 75bucks.
