95 S14KA,Drop-in 91 S13 coupe?

I'm About to Drop a Motor in my S14 and have someone intrested in my Current KADE to his non-running coupe (blown Hgasket).

This should basically Drop in and everything needed Harness/Plug wise should Connect Correct??
Anything I need to know before hand (maybe 95 OBD into a 91 car issues). Just let him Run my KA ECU is mainly it right?
I'm offering him a price that he agreed to,..that I'll pull my KA,.pull his Blown KA and drop mine in its place.DOne.

then install my SR.

drop in yes, plug and play...thats a big hell no. you can do this 2 ways and this message isnt 56k compliant, so if you need me to be thorough just lemme know.

1) easy way: convert that pos obdii junk to obdi and use your existing harness....
2) change out your harness to a s14 harness and have CEL galore >_< oh and extra junk you'll never see on your harness...and get a s14 ecu

so what does the S14 have that the S13 does not?Sensor wise?
What would be the Other way I could do it?
Swap Exsisting Block and head into Car and swap over all other Manifolds,Canisters/emissions Items off the S13 to the S14 motor?

Not sure why I'm thinking this should be simple.Same Engine,..and W/ the S13 Harness should Match Minus the extra emissions Items NO?
S14 ECU will plug up w/ the S13 Connector Harness??

CEL is Really no big deal.

Easiest way (done the exact same swap), swap the '91 intake and exhaust manifolds and distributor to the '95 engine. At that time, replace the knock sensor and harness since its easy to get to. Remember, when you order things for the engine, its a '95 240SX, when its things for the mainfolds or emissions, its a '91 240SX. LMK of and troubles.

Awesome Sir,...thats what I needed.

Now..I Still run the S13 ECu,..?due to the fact that all the Timing and emissions are Still technically S13 yes?

So Small Check list:
Get a New
S13 Exh mani Gasket (both parts/upper and lower to the Y pipe?)
S13 intake mani Gasket
Unless he wants to do a new cap/rotor etc.Get that too for the S13.

Leave everything else intact and just swap over.
I've already gotta replace the Chain Kit, due to the Fact its LOUD as Fuck and I think the guides are Worn Slap out.Possibly Hiiting the front cover of the engine.
Not you average Chain Rattle.A tad more extreme,..But Car runs Great and PULLS Hard.Never and issue w/ it.

Yes, run the S13 ECU and harness as thats the car its getting installed into. The gaskets stated in your post are the ones you're needing. I believe there all the same from '91-'98 but be on the safe side and get '91 parts. Remember to remove the upper timing chain guide (just under the valve cover) off the engine and dispose of it. Its not needed and cause more harm than good. All three KA's I've had I removed. No problems.

GOdd luck.
