Ok. thanks for stopping by and taking your time reading this.. I have came across a S14 SE Full Leather, LSD, White Dash Instrumentals. ABS, 5lug etc etc etc.. Down Side.. Its an automatic... My Friend just Crashed his S14 his car was just a base model. 4lug no ABS u guys get the point.. ok here is the deal.

He sold me his Entire engine and Manual transmission with all the necessary wiring and accessories to make it work like the cylinder, clutch pedal, clutch hydrolic line, engine wiring, etc.... its a KA24 Turbo, fully built lot of money on to that power house :naughty: . the ECU is wired weird so i cant use my own wires all and engine wiring is all weird also.. so obviously i need to swap all the wiring but his car was not ABS and my car IS.. will this effect anyting on my breaking system?? and when i went down on my dash board driver side, where the clutch pedal suppose to go there is this lil computer or something, pedal wont fit, or will it fit?? please help.. :frown:

If i were you i would just swap over the manual transmission along with the clutch pedal, master cylinder, etc.
then if you still want to turbocharge it, do it. :yesnod

I would like info on the same thing, I have a 95 looking to run a S13 tuned ECU. Does the S13 ECU have to be from a ABS car in order for mine to work? Will it cause and lights or anything cause that makes cars auto fail inspection.

Real Good Question... if the S13 that ur taking the ECU out of has NO ABS, and ur 95 has no ABS it should work or Vise Versa. just make sure that the S13 ECU comes off a DOHC. And if u have No ABS ECU and ABS System on ur car.. then we both are in the same boat. :biggrin: jajajajaja.. and i dont have to worry about Inspections.. I Live in Tijuana. everyting here is Legal.. :cool: have my stock all legal work on a s13 and i have my lil s14 toy.. :woot:
