Well I am thinking of buying my friends 1990 Hatchback, and I already own a 1990 coupe, so I was already planning on doing the SR swap, but now that I have two cars I was thinking one SR and one KA-T. The RB wouldn't work for me beacuse I don't want crazy horsepower, and I'm not a big fan of the CA motors. My question is which would be eaiser, the 1990 hatchback has manual windows and is 5spd with a analog speedo, no sunroof, nothing like that. My 1990 coupe is 5spd with a currently working digital speedo and HUD, has power windows. which should I put the SR in? Either way I am doing the Silvia front end conversion on the coupe beacuse it looks better in my opinion. I was just wondering how hard is it to make the digital speedo work with the SR, and another question is, I know where to get parts for a SR beacuse I have wanted that motor for the last year and am about to get it, but where can you look for parts for the KA, like pistons, turbo componets, just stuff to build a reliable motor, beacuse I have heard KA's have weak pisons when boosted.

You can SR either one and for either one you KA-T, swap the SOHC for a DOHC motor first. That's just my opinion.
