I will when i get the car, and get the swap done
looking at a 94
plan on rb25 or 26 in there
looking at what else i want to throw on
itll be my new project car
and the parts will be a write off since i sell parts
so it will get s13 front, motor will have forged pistons, rods
upgraded head gasket, cams, valvetrain, custom manifold, bigger turbo, twin disk clutch, beefed up rear which will most likely be a nismo unit because a buddy is running one in his 72z with a rb26 350z tranny and that rear.
lots of ideas just got to sell off a bunch of my honda turbo drag motor parts and ill be good

I don't think you want to purchase a 94 240sx. The only model offered in 94 was the convertible, which isn't a good choice for a project car due to the weight, and lack of structural rigidity. Also it necessitates swapping from auto to manual tranny which adds more complexity to your engine swap.

cost me 4,000 for the motor, tranny, driveshaft, axles, ecu, wiring, wire harrnesses, and mounting kit. cost me about 1500 to have it all installed. but that was after i had it taken to a guy i knew who rebuilt racing motors that cost me about 5,000 for that upgrade
