I recently saw in a superstreet in the readers rides section that a guy had swapped the 2jze twin turbo motor into a 91 240. I was wondering if anyone has heard of this or known anybody that has done it.

 

ive heard of it. you can pretty much fit any engine in a 240. but if you were gonna do inline 6 i would just go the rb25 route and stay nissan. i love the 2jz engine but i dont think it should be in a nissan. plus im pretty sure the 2jz is about the same price if not more than a rb.

 

I agree with you on staying Nissan in fact I have been planning an rb25 swap now for awhile. But, the 2jz is a little less expensive and its twin turbo. I just dont know whats involved as far as the wiring and mounting it in the car. I assume both will be a custom job.

 

umm... ever heard of a rb26dett? Solves both your problems right there.

 

Are you saying a RB26TT swap would be cheaper then a 2JZ?

Also, they do make kits for a 2JZ swap. I heard it's not to difficult.

 

Yes I understand that there is an rb26dett but like said earlier, it is a lot more expensive than a 2jz.....do you know where I can find one of these kits for the 2jz swap?

 

RB more expensive than a 2J? Ya sure

RB=5k+

2J=7K+

Yeah, wiring will be a slight issue with the 2J, RB is so much nice i would say.

Meh its your wasted money.

 

what he said.

 

Why would you want to do this swap anyway?? most supra owners end up with a single turbo! you kids, quit making life harder for yourselves. theres too many interchanging abilities in the nissan world to be thinking of a $20k+ swap for your 1991 240. smart people go faster in the end. lol.

 

Dude i think its tight idea u can get more horse power from a supra motor.

 

You can pick up a JDM 2jzgte with everything except intercooler and piping for 2500... not to mention, the same kits allow you to bolt up a 1jzgte and that you can get a front clip of a car for 1800..

 

Man that would go like stink!

 

yea there are kits out there to swap it in, and from what ive heard its actually not to bad of an install either, but yea id never waste my money on it neways...nissan 4 life!1

 

Mmmm...I don't know if I'd call it a waste. Any Toyota engine, I'm sure, is as reliable as most other Japanese makes (Nissan, Mazda, Honda...)

I've driven a Supra (N/A) and, MAN, that straight-six makes a glorious noise! Sorry, it sounds better than a 240. *hangs head in shame*

The Supra's downfall is it's weight. It's got a great engine with good power and torque, but the thing weighs over a ton-and-a-half, whereas a 240 weights just over 1.2 tons. 200+ HP engine in a 240 sounds like a formula for fun to me!
