720_potter Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 so I know in the past I asked about a de swap, but instead for now I just want another reliable engine for the future. I just wanted to know how simple it is to swap a Napz to a ka24e engine out of a d21 hardbody. and how easy would it be to swap it into my automatic transmission? Thanks, Cameron P. 1 Quote Link to comment
bottomwatcher Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 Go to the how to swap a ka into the 720 in the how to forum. If you have questions after that come back. 2 Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 You might also try over at Infamous Nissans http://www.infamousnissan.com/forum/index.php Heads up,, I would search for the answer, rather than ask that question over there though. Robot font. . 1 Quote Link to comment

The KA and the Z series as so close to the same mounting position as to be virtually the same. See ]2eDeYe for his engine mounts. A KA transmission will bolt to a Z series so it's not a stretch that a Z24 automatic and flex plate will bolt to a KA. You will need a vacuum supply from the KA's intake for the Z automatic but other than that that's it for the transmission.. 1 Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 The KA will fit, you can use the Z series radiator, Steve's engine mounts, the transmission isn't a problem. The rest might be oil pan fit, grafting the exhaust down pipe to the 720s pipe and wiring it up. The D21 EFI wiring is integral with the engine harness and a lot of trouble to separate. The 240sx's EFI is nicer looking and the wiring is separate and easier to remove and work with than the D21. Just sayin' that if a 240sx EFI and harness were available.... 1 Quote Link to comment
