Hello Everyone,

I'm a noob and was wondering if anyone could tell me if the following parts would be compatible with my 1985 Nissan 200sx CA20E 2.0:

-Single cam ECU $15
-Single cam maf sensor $10
-5 speed speedometer sensor $50
-S13 down pipe $20

The guy selling these parts says that its a 1996 240sx. I'm noob so please help.  Thank you for your time.

Nope. Completely different software and firmware.
Nope. Completely different signal sent to ECU.
Nope. S12 is cable driven speedo. S13 has a PWM speedo sensor (Electronic)
Topped off with nope. Completely different sizes and flanges.

Just to add to what Jay said,
The S14 240sx (produced 95-00) had twin cam engines.
So if this guy is selling you single cam engine parts and saying they are from a 96 model, he is full of shit.
