Going threw this issue myself . I ended up buying a used one for 80.00 off eBay . The odd round plug is the crutch . Im pretty sure the 1985 250sx is the same cdi so that might help in your search .

Yes, I agree but if you were to read the entire thread...yes, it's very long.....you might realize that you could have used a new CDI and replacement connector for under $20.00 and not rely on a USED $80.00 ebay unit just waiting for the right time to die. True that a plug right in unit is easier than soldering in a new connector and you have to test/research wire to pin location. Perhaps the cheaper units (I'm running a cheap cdi for a 110 that runs my 84es just fine) may have a slightly different advance curve but if you have a limited budget and a soldering iron some folks might want to give it a go.
