how do I tell if it's RWD?
« on: 03:31:17 PM / 10-Feb-12 »
I've read that a KA24DE will bolt down into my 1985 200sx MK1 pretty easily.  However it has to be RWD.  When I ebay for a KA24DE engine + tranny, the sellers usually never specifies RWD or FWD.  They just either list it as Long Block or nothing at all.  How do you identify if the motor + tranny is RWD or FWD?

Well if they show an actual picture of the engine and trans, it should be really obvious from the transmission alone.

Otherwise, the FWD KA has a different accessory drive layout than the RWD.

If you google image search, you should be able to find a pic of a FWD and RWD to compare.

The distributor is in a different location and the intake manifold is different
