Ok guys i just registered on the site not to long ago, because i found out i am buying a 240sx, i dont have pics yet but i will very soon , i am a complete new person to 240's until i saw this one i had to buy for its unbelievably low price. I walk up to this guy mowing his lawn and noticed his 240 out (by the way hes about a block away from me and i can vouch that the car doesnt leave the garage in the winter) i asked him if he was interested in selling it. He said yes, and i asked what price range he was looking at. He quoted me about a grand, i can honestly say the interior looks brand new and the exterior is godlike. Not ONE spot of rust, even under the hood it looked good. So people i find myself buying this car within the week, and im already looking at engine swaps , my friend told me that the 240 would prolly be at its fastest with the VG30DETT but he said hed rather has a SR20. So which do i buy? I dont know much about either of the engines so info would be greatly appreciated :P

 

first off welcome
now go to the newbie section and read for about a month and learn evrything there is on the forums about the car your gonna get. you will be suprised on how much info has already been discussed

 

the VG is a tough fit...but can be done. Just because of the modifications needed, the SR is better. Search around the engine swaps forum to find more info

 

yes i agree the SR20 would be a lot better engine in my eyes....but it is completely up to you....both engines are great and to me it is all preference
