WHAT IS THE LATEST MODEL i CAN GO WITH AND NOT HAVE TO CHANGE ANYTHING? it sounded like it was the same engine from what i read at the top of the tread.

the latest you can go with is either another 95 or maybe a 96. 96 might work but a 97 is pretty much a 98 in a 97 body.
its a very easy swap. like i said earlier, any competent mechanic can do it.
hmmm... what differs on the engine? it's a FF engine right? so the block's gonna be all weird. but your talking about internals such as maybe the valves???? cams?????*that's the one i'm really interested in* ...pistons. bearings?

it is an ff engine and thats what makes everything different. the distributor is in a totally diferent place as are the motor mounts and throttle body.
you can use the same pistons, rods, cams and most likely bearings as well. the head you cant use or the block.
00-01 ka into a 95 will require the swapping of the intake manifolds, the distributor, the water housing and the a/c bracket. your mechanic will also have to rewire the knock sensor. any competent mechanic can figure out what needs to be done, but the above HAS to be swapped. if you do everything i said, the ecu will work with no problems.
as far as altima and 240 ka's go - no, they are not interchangeable. some of the internals are, but the head and block are not.
how do you rewire the knock sensor ? like what does it take and where is it ? thanks

how do you rewire the knock sensor yourself? thank you
colors of the wires are just for ease of reading wiring diagrams. you just go to your local walmart... pic up a roll of the same gauge wire, some of those brass crimping connectors that you just slip in the twisted bare wire into and squeeze down with some pliars... the plastic coating on the connector helps insulate, then wrap with electric tape. just don't make the mistake of connecting the positive w/ the negative/vise-versa. buying a multimeter will help make sure where you need to rewire (through continuity/ohms testing) and you just check your work afterwards... do an Ohms test and it shows how well the crimping you did, and whether or not there's another weak point in the harness.

there are only 2 wires on the knock sensor.
it doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure out how to rewire the new harness, lol.
1's black and the other is white.
