I'm in Japan for the weekend and I'm thinking about picking up a short shifter, my question is will it fit on a US 240sx??? Japanese S14 Transmission = US S14 Transmission??? Please reponse quickly....

PS will a exhaust from Japan fit our US 240sx???

Question 1:
Yes, all 240/silvia shifters are the same, and I have heard they are also interchangable with the R33 Skyline.

Question 2:
No, the Japan spec "silvia" has the SR20 engine I'm sure you have heard much about.  Exhaust is different since it is a different engine.

i heard since it's the same chassis it would fit, I also heard that you can put a SR20DET downpipe on the KA's... can someone please comfirm this, I only have tommorrow to pick up parts...

Yes, you can absolutely use a cat-back exhaust from the SR on a KA.
The shifters, like 240sig said, are also interchangable between the SR and KA.

Yup...shifters are all interchangeable, and so are the exhausts.  Think about it...The Dual N1 was designed for an SR.  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
