Recently I decided I was going to do a swap into my Zenki 240sx. I wanted to
put the proper motor in it; the motor I feel actually belongs in the car.
Naturally my choice was a notchback. I ordered a clean front clip and a few
other bits (HKS Hi-Power, Megan Racing mounts, Stance GR+, Megan Racing
test pipe, Spec Stage 2 Clutch) and got to work.

Upon pulling the motor from the clip, we realized that it not only had a Mine's
air cleaner and a short shifter, but it also had a new exedy stage 1 clutch in
it. anyone want to buy a spec stage 2? haha.

After pulling my KA, we quickly realized that I was not going to be having AC

After throwing the SR in, we began on the wiring

Anyone who's anyone knows that the cabin harness wiring on the s14 is
stupid hard since there is a HUGE lack of info on it on the net. Have no fear
because my bud Chris and I figured it all out and are going to make a writeup
on it in a few days. For now in this post, however, ill just say its a PAIN IN
THE BUM when you don't know specifically what to do.
But, I digress. We got the wiring done and went through the usual testing
sequences (spark, fuel, injector power) until the stars aligned and the car
started right up. Naturally I pee'd my pants when the exhaust manifold
started to burn off all the garbage we put on it while doing the swap.
Expecially since I retained the stock heat shield (i'd like to keep my brake
master in solid form) so it seemed as if the turbo was smoking. That passed
and happiness ensued.
