Question can i do this?

Hi I have a 1990 240sx automatic and I was wondering if I could do a engine swap with a 1983 280zx turbo. I also wanted to know if I can take out the manual transmition on the 280 and swap it into my 240. I was just wondering if I could do that or not thanx.

It would probably be the first of its kind, but If you want something better for less money go with SR, or RB. just my .02

You can do it.... I mean it would fit with new mounts but why? Your gonna end up putting more money into that motor just keeping up with it. My buddy has a 78 280z and its quick, but clunky clanky motor that likes to ping, it has less miles on it than my KA but unless your willing to throw down more money into maintenance rather than performance. If you were gonna get a inline 6 turbo for cheap, the rb20 front clip you can get for like 1800 or 1900 ive scene.
