I have been researching about intercoolers and everyone says ebay ones are fine. I have
a 1995 240sx KA24DE and was wondering what intercooler would be a better fit.

The s13 SR20 one Only $208 shipped
eBay Motors: CXRacing FMIC INTERCOOLER KIT 89-94 240SX S13 SR20det (item 190289229831 end time Mar-02-09 17:30:01 PST) (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CXRacing-FMIC-INTERCOOLER-KIT-89-94-240SX-S13-SR20det_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33742QQihZ009QQ itemZ190289229831QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW)

The s13 KA24DE one $350 shipped
eBay Motors: Cxracing 91-94 240SX S13 KA24DE Turbo Intercooler + BOV (item 190289671932 end time Mar-04-09 17:59:32 PST) (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cxracing-91-94-240SX-S13-KA24DE-Turbo-Intercooler-BOV_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33742QQihZ009QQitem Z190289671932QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW)

Remember I have the s14 KA24de so i think I would need the s13 SR20 kits am I right?
What one would give a better fitment?

I am going to be running the JGS t3-t4 turbo kit and that what the ka24de intercooler kit looks like its designed for.

Thanks

S13 SR kits are pretty close to lining up on the DOHC KA, but the intercooler itself usually has different tabs and requires new brackets, especially on an S14 chassis. Either one of those will get you close enough with just a little adapting needed to finish up, it's never going to be 100% fit no matter who makes the parts.
