The s14 blacktop sr20det fits into a US 240SX S13 chassis without mods. It will use the same driveshaft and differential, as well as the stock downpipe and cat 240SX exhaust. but the 89-90 chassis needs power steering lines and reservoir from 91-94 chassis. the s14 sr20 fits into US S14 chassis with no modifications. So basically it'll fit. GL TO U

Also I was told that it would be harder to swap an sr20det into an s14 for some reason but I thought that it was easier to swap the motor into an S14. I was told about 2700 for full swap(S13 front clip and install) into an S13 chassis. When I bought my car I ended up buying an S14 and now I am told that it will be around 3200 for the swap(S13 front clip and install) because the swap is a little bit harder in an S14(more labor)?

Do both S14 sr20det's have VVTi? or is it just the blacktop?
