I know the name says silvia and all but in the near future i am looking at buyin either a 95-98 240sx or an gen3 Integra. Which one do you guys think would be the better choice?

 

an 89 240sx coupe with a tuned SR20DET

 

98 240 (with the money headlights) and run with the KA-T. And when you are done, you'll be able to take out reuter in his six-speed V-8.

 

We don't have an 89 S13 Coupe here in the states, only hatchbacks. I'm not even sure about overseas either.

Coupes are 91-94 here.

 

i had an 89 S13 coupe...

 

Well then ...

Good thing I don't really know S13 Why would you get an 89 then?

I KNOW it has a KA24E which means you have to get a bunch off of the DOHC to make the swap work. Why not just get a later model year and save the hassle of buying that stuff seperately?

 

MY choice to go with a 89 s13 coupe was one of price. An SR swap into an 89 with a KA24E is just as easy as putting one into a 91 with a KA24DE. A KA24DE swap into a KA24E 240sx is just a matter of getting the DOHC wiring harness from what I remember. My plans for the 89 were to build a motor for it anyways so having to purchase a ka24de wiring harness wasn't a big issue. But before I could purchase a spare KA24DE and start building I ran across one very nice red 95 Z28 6speed

 

I know you need at least the DOHC cluster and some part of the PS. Don't remember what else you need for the SR.

 

you can reroute the PS lines yourself with a little creativity

 

I guess if you like brazing your own lines you'll be ok on that part. Is a 89 really that much cheaper than a 91?
