IDW Prime Member Group: Advanced Members Posts: 733 Member No.: 5,876 Joined: Mar 1st 2005 Location: los angeles | just check for ecu codes and see if anything comes up. First light is a goes by units of ten and the second one goes by units of one. So if the first lights blinks 5 times....thats 50, and if the second light blinks 5 times....thats 5....so you are getting code 55...nothing wrong. Do a search on NICO and you can download a free FSM for the KAE. It will have a section on how to run a code check on your ecu. You don't need any additional special equipment. You can also just run the code check and tell me which code you get. I always have my chilton's manual in my car. |

IDW Member Group: Members Posts: 16 Member No.: 25,251 Joined: Jul 10th 2007 Location: Mandurah, Western Australia | In aus, Some people do RB conversions to the 180sx(240). But it ruins weight distribution. That and people tend to go much faster with SR Also DALAZ_68. If you were going to choose another engine when you have money, I woudnt compare the CA. with the SR/RB20. If you wanted somthing with alot of power, You could try RB25 Also, Are all 240sx's based on the 88/89/90 spec CA 180sx's? This post has been edited by pedrotski on Jul 11 2007, 08:39 PM |

i would, but i herd and have seen a few 240s with Rb25, that have had problems, problems i dont wanna deal with... plus going RB20- or even 25 is to much i think, im not looking into having this car forever...this car is probably gonna have only 1 and half with me b4 my credit is built enough for me to buy a car off the lot... so putting to much into this car is not an option for me...the max im considering putting into it is around 4k, Sr swap iv found someone for 1800 complete with PS atleast, 500 plus if i want working A/C... KA swap i and my friends can do ourselves...so ill only be payin for the engine + tranny, most likely new clutch, and a cheery picker... but im just looking to have my fun for now if i was considering making this into a career, then i would already own a nicely tuned car...

In which you need to calm down. If you haven't realized, THIS is HIS thread. And he has already clearly mentioned he doesn't want to have to go thru many irritating problems. The Z engine is not bad by any means whatsoever, but it depends on a persons taste. NOW, stop bumping and waving your E-Penis and take a chill pill, thank you. Oh, and get your eyes fixed next time.

[sarcasm]Oh wow, I feel absolutely hurt by yours as well. I am, how they say? Pwned? Owned? Yes, something like that, so oh dear, oh god, I think I'm going emo so Imma gnna cut myself cuz I've been pwned by the greatest E-Penis in the Universe, Oh no, help me[end of sarcasm]...... Dalaz: Stick with the engine you have for the moment, don't rush things. When you get bored you can go ahead and either modify it slightly or swap in a better engine of your choice, in which, you think, its the right choice for you, your price range, and your car.
