Halppppp - Telling what year 240sx gearbox I have?

[camerashy]

Wanting to rebuild the 240sx box I got for the Z...

There are two rebuild kits available...one for a 1988-93 box, one for a 1993-97 ...any idea how to tell the year of a box?

well, the one up to 1993 will be for the CA18DET Engine at a guess and the one after that would be for the SR20DET Engine, I'm not 100% sure though as in your part of the world I suspect the later S14 came with the KA24DE engine instead

(240SX over that side of the pond is what we call the 200SX over here in the UK by the way)

KA24E from 1989–1990 and KA24DE from 1991–1999

hmm, a bit strange, it seems the S13 240SX got both the KA24E and the KA24DE with the change happening in 91, the S14 only got the KA24DE, I suspect the rebuild kits your looking at might actually be for J spec Silvia's which had the CA18DE(T) up to about 93 and the SR20DE(T) afterwards... Its a right mix with plenty of later S13's getting sold with the SR20 rather than the CA18, all S14's got the SR20
