Had to put the build on a little stand still as my life has basically changed drastically. Lost my wife, lost my apartment, so I didn't have anywhere to live/work on the car for a bit. Luckily, my rents let me crash with them. Helps that my pops is a huge nissan head also

Hope it's for the best brother! Some build time with the old man/Nissan head should be fun.

That sucks man. I lost my job and apartment in February of last year. It almost ruined my dreams of ever owning a KA-T. Hope things get better for you.

Re: Cute240sxGuy's KA24DET Build - 91/E85
Thanks guys, appreciate the uplifting words. I've been trying to keep my head high . I've been pounding away at the car and have gotten SUUUUPER close to being able to fire her up! I'd say within the next couple of weeks I should be golden! Here are some updated pics.
So, getting my intake manifold ready for boost as well, however I will be running it like this N/A also. I will be breaking in the motor N/A. Aluminum welding was getting pretty expensive, so I opted for the tap/plug option. I used 1/8"-27 NPT tap & pipe plugs. Came out pretty good

Re: Cute240sxGuy's KA24DET Build - 91/E85
Had some time today to remove the s13 tranny that's giving me problems! Picked another one up last night in super excellent condition with all sensors, clutch fork, TOB, shifte, AND crossmember/mount. Decided since the tranny was already out I would drill the hole for the S14 crank angle sensor into the bell housing. Also flocked the dash.
Removed problematic s13 tranny
Made my "template" for drilling the CAS. 9/16" back from end of bellhousing (where it meets the block) & 1" from nearest bolt hole.
Need to get some washers/spacers to raise the sensor up.
