New brand module or did you switch from 7 pin to 8 pin?

gah! not toast yet... wait till the gasket is replaced, and the fluids are back where they belong... if after that, you hear bad noises, "toast"
EDIT: Julian and I are gonna be putting the suspension on the hachi on saturday... so get your head gasket by then, and we can have a garage day at the house... well without the garage....

DarkAngelKamui:
A friend of mine is looking to get a 240SX. (1989 SE model)
It's supposedly got a rebuilt KA24 and slushbox in it. He was looking at reselling the KA + tranny and getting a (m@d JDM y0) SR20 and manual.
If you want, I'll let you know about it.
As of, I haven't seen the car on a lift or under the hood. Only a walk around... So I won't say much about it until I see more.

Thanks for the lookout, but that'd be a downgrade for me... my 89 S13 has a KA24DE (S14 engine) in it as is, so either I find another like it or I just go the way of the SR20 as well...

c'mon man, you have to save some money... and need transportation.
