Hello all,

I am looking for a bit more info about a 240sx I am thinking about buying. First of all, the owner claims it is rare because it is a hard top. Is that correct? Second, it is currently without an engine. If I decide to buy it, what engines will fit and which engine would you recommend?

Thank you very much in advance!

 

Hard top? No that's not that rare. He may be confusing it with a 300zx, the slicktop 300zx was extremely rare. Most all 240sx's were hardtop (some with sunroofs), only 8000 S13s were convertibles. No matter the condition, it really can't be worth more than a grand, and that's if the rest of the car is mint.

 

yea $500-$1000 in great condition.

i bought my first 240 (hardtop shell) for $300

 

check out the ENGINE SWAP thread.. there are stickies with engine selections.

welcome

 

i bought my 240 running for 350...i mean it had a blown head gasket..but it ran
