unless you find sr transmission internals, you are **** out of luck. the sr transission bell housing is different from ka. you have to swap the internals from the ka to sr tranny bell housing or something like that from what i remember. it'd be easier to just get an sr tranny. i know you mentioned you didn't have any extra cash, but this would be a great excuse to get an HKS 6spd or ikeya formula sequential transmission. lol.
1) You are an idiot for bragging about getting a part that quite a few of us have. Not to mention, yours is incomplete.
2) Ikeya Formula makes a shifter attachment that converts the h-pattern to a sequential motion. It is NOT a sequential transmission.:p
you should've done your searching before you got the engine. this has been discussed numerous times.
but anyway, u can get a 5 spd tranny off ebay for an sr20det.

Have fun saving up for a couple more years while your SR sits and gets covered with dust. You should have put the money to better use because you sure don't sound like you are going to have that thing up and running any time soon.

You beat me to it. Dont let our government fool you. Even I knew that and I knw nothign about SR20's. What kind of idiot buys a engien with no tranny expecting to use his old one and THEN blames it on the state he lives in.........:wtc:

For some reason I'm not jealous :P
Congrats on the new motor. While you're waiting for a tranny you could like. . . take pictures of it, imagine what it would look like in your engine bay. . . that'd be cool :P
You may want to take the time to check what else you might need. IE: Intake piping, intercooler, wiring harness, turbocharger. . . There's a lot more needed for the engine swap than just the longblock.

Ok.
The funniest part about all this, is you're gonna be missing a TON of other stuff. A few months from now, when the thing will at least turn over, THEN come and talk smack. BTW there's quite a few of us with SR's... some with much better turbo's than stock... oh yeah... there are quite a few KA+T guys who'll had your arse to ya as well ;)
cliff notes:
- if you didn't think to get a tranny, think of everything else you're missing... have fun spending at least $1k more on random parts.
- you said yourself, you're only 17. How bout you stop giving all the younger members a bad name by fitting the stereotype of kids being mouthy punks?

now is that a week from today? or a week after it's finally running?
If it's a week from today, put my $20 on "no-way-in-hell-it-runs-for-2months-minimum" ;)

wow you blew money on an engine that probably doesnt even work, have fun spending another 2000 on sh!t you need to get it going...heres a nice surprise, wiring harnesses cost 500 alone, have fun digging that out of the couch cushions, wannabe.

ok ok yes yes tool tool ..n e ways like u said somethin about the bell housing..i look at the ka24 de and the sr and i see that the bolt pattern is different .....u said somethin has to be done to it..i dont get it..i havent takin out the tranny from the ka yet but if ur right and wa la maybe i wont order the sr tranny from friend's shop quit yet..he is chargin me 159 is that good and he is doin my harness for90 and the intercooler he is gonna get from a probe..sounds n e good? cuz i have the time but now i need the feedback on what to do next...oh and another thing is that can u use the distributor from a sentras sr20 or do i have to get one from the rwd sr20? over all i should start orderin the parts next week and the drop should be a week after...so where do u think i should start besides takin out the ka...like how should i prep the engine? the only thing that looks awkward is the valve cover cuz it has a scratch will that effect it? and how about the power steerin hose...i looked at the 93 and the 89 and i dont see n e thing different unless there is somethin hidden.

Dood, you are making us minors look bad. I usually don't think much of it when I notice several errors grammer/spelling wise, but your **** makes me sick to read. When did you drop out of school bro?
Please, learn some common sense man...
I am going to agree with DJ Machine, blown KA motor with a red valve cover :)

what the hell are you talkin about ...minors? go get your own blown ka with a red valve cover...im tryin to get help not to be rediculed by some who dont even know what they are talkin about. forums are for asking for tech advice not to talk trash. some of you dont understand that. and that makes me sick hearing you guys talk trash..why cant any of you become helpful and actually do something to better the world instead of insulting somebody...u wanna insult somebody ..got to the honda forums i bet your lips are appreciated there. but if someone is willin to help me with my project it will be fine..plus i have back seats for a 93 se...leather..u like leather? any ways guys please dont be such an asshole and help me out.i figured you guys were mature enough to get past the whole stereotypical bull**** and help a fellow nissan owner build his dream car..so can we have less of the unsults and more of the helpin my dumbass get my car runnin? i would thank you very much.

I was referring to the definition of minor as Being under legal age; not yet a legal adult.
I'm not trying to be an A-Hole, but please, think about what you are going to post, and do some research. I mean, did you really need to come out bragging on the peeps that do not have an SR yet? Maybe some of us relize that you get what you pay for, and are waiting to make a quality investment.
Oh, and try to atleast glance over what you type so you don't make multiple errors that give people the idea that you must be a High School drop-out.
Good luck with your dreamcar. I'm sure you will have an SR powered 240 long before I do. My SR20DET fund just got wiped out :wtc:

I'd say $159 for the SR tranny is worth it...being that most junkyards wouldnt have them. I've heard talk that you can use a KA tranny with the SR if you swap the KA tranny into the SR bellhousing.....but...if you have an SR bellhousing then just probably have an SR tranny anyways.
Probe intercooler?? Maybe if it was free...for now. Otherwise..get a nice Starion/Coquest IC on ebay for like $100-$150.
As for using sentra parts?....go here http://srswap.com/html/info/faq_partinter.htm
Prepping the engine for the install.....I dunno...check out this link once again http://www.srswap.com/ under the SR Install FAQ.
Valve cover scratch isnt anything to worry about. If it bugs you sand if down and repaint the valve cover.

oh i just love this...you get on here braggin about your incomplete setup, then get smart with us, then ask for help from the same people? even if i can answer your questions, what's the benefit of helping some jackass build a car he knows obviously very little about? so i can clip out the article when you wrap it around a tree and say "hey i know that guy"? not my thing.

hahahahahaha! starion intercoolers are fast huh? or were you trying to say starions are fast? because i'll let you know they're not, unless you consider a factory turbocharged inline 4cylinder that runs high 15's on a fresh motor with a good driver fast;)
