oh your talking bout that...ha ha thought you were talking bout the ac.

Took the car this morning to my mechanic. he says its either a small end bearing but it sounds more like a main bearing. He has years of XP so I trust him.

Sure you wont get top $$$ for the engine with a bearing knock but you will still get alot more without the french window in the block.

gary also speaks the truth, but be honest with the prospective buyer.

karma and 200sx's are very close buddy's!!!

as for a ca18det and sr20det. the gearboxes are similar but the bellhousings are different so they wont fit each other. but all you need to do is change the bellhousing!
