Why not put a mod motor in the last body style 240(don't remember the chassis #)? I don't know if it will fit easily enough in earlier years but i know a guy who has test fitted and swears the only thing needed for the engine to fit is a slightly modified oil pan, or you can go dry sump.

Probably wouldn't be cost effective. I'd just go with a 331 or 347 if I was doing a swap like that. 2v's are too expensive to make fast and 4v's are too expensive to buy in general.

You make it sound like its an import vs domestic thing. Im looking at it as a how fast do you want to go for cheap and easy thing. How many actually fast 240sx are running around here? Not very many. How many fox bodies do you see??? TONS. there is a reason for that.
350Z. G35. OR you could have a used R32-R33 skyline right now for the price of that Z06.

Its all good, I'm just sayin is all Im saying ya know what Im sayin?

rhd conversion is underway also ..

Yes I do Vince Don't get mad when you see my response to your post in the yellow skyline blue silvia thread

I'm not comparing the Zo6 to the G35/350. Boostin97SE-R was saying Nissan had nothing to offer for him. He's right... besides the skyline he could have bought

Haha, nothing someone could say on an internet board upsets me (anymore).
