Please don't shoot me if there is a post about this. Because I did look for some.

But I was wondering, I am thinking about getting a 1990 240sx hatchback.

Which would be the easier swap for it.The CA or the SR?

I've read that with the SR you have Tach issues...but they are easily solved by swaping out the Tach's.

Also....i know with Honda swaps you need motor mounts, do you need them for these swaps as well?

Where is some good websites on SWAP Information or FAQ's?

Thanks.

yea, search usually comes up w/ stuff. there are ALOT of threads about "which is better". but mostly it comes down to which YOU want. CA is iron block, SR akuminum. CA is easier to find parts for here in USA i believe, SR isn't quite as simple. there is alot more, but just look around.

The CA is just as easy to swap. You have all the same problems in a 89-90 as you do with a SR, they're both "setup" the same way.

The Motor Mounts work, but I suggest new, upgraded ones.

And yes, for the love of god, please, please, please search.
