KA24DE in S13 swap

[STessmer]

I have a S14 KA24DE and S14 engine harness.

I have searched alot, and all that ive really found is saying i need the lower S13 DE intake, distributor and coil. But thats referring to a S13 KA24DE and S13 harness if im reading correct... So what will i need to swap my S14 engine and harness into a S13?

depending on what year s14 harness u have it might not work. 96 and newer have obd2. i think if its still obd1 u will just have extra connectors all over the place..

the engine i believe is a 96 or 97 (ill have to contact to guy i bought it from to find out for sure) and the harness is from a 95

S13 and s14 ka24de's are basically the same. What year is you s13? Did it come with DOHC or SOHC? If it came with a ka24de, all that you have to do is swap the whole intake mani from the s13 ka to the s14 ka. If your s13 came with a ka24e, the you'll have to swap to an non obdII wiring harness and ecu. It isn't really that difficult.

awesome, thanks. thats the information i was looking for.

If your s13 came with a ka24e, the you'll have to swap to an non obdII wiring harness and ecu...

To clarify: You'll need an S13 DOHC wiring harness and ECU.

Using the S14 harness and ECU would be possible, but it's a wiring headache...that's very easily avoidable.

If you have a '91-94 car with a DOHC in in currently...use ONLY the new block and head...swap all your other stuff onto it. Or keep the S14 intake manifold on the motor, and swap ALL the sensors. Either way.

But no matter what - Use an S13 DOHC harness and ECU, S13 distributor, and all other S13 sensors.
