GTR_240SX · 07-05-2014, 12:13 AM

After all the hard work it's finally done. Not a very hard swap to do but wiring was a bit time consuming so what my buddy told me but, hey got it done right just because I'm not looking for my engine bay to look like a hack job. Car still has full interior and has everything it needs

)!!!
Oh and yes I used to have an RB26. Just wanted something with more torque I guess...lol

Chassis:
1990 240SX... California car so zero rust

Motor:
LS2
Hooker Headers
Hooker Mounts
Custom driveshaft
Stage 2 T-56
Stage 3 competition Clutch
Canton Racing oil pan
Canton Racing oil filter relocate
Sikky sway bar
Car is sitting on Full Stance Suspension
Tien tension rods
Nismo 2-way

The swap cost me a bit over $10k... Have any questions let me know.

GTR_240SX · 07-05-2014, 09:39 AM

$10k installed or DIY?

Tapa on Note III

GTR_240SX · 07-05-2014, 03:21 PM

DIY... It's all new parts and no ebay parts... Used motor is around 6500 and my motor is brand new and so is my trans

where did you get the engine and trans?

GTR_240SX · 07-05-2014, 04:36 PM

Got the motor off a guy in St. Charles that collects car and trans I got from a guy that built the internals...
