240sx question

[Jayteg]

haha jay, i dont want to spend 6 grand on a motor lol

Sr20ve then? Lol

lol sounds good but thinking about just a stock one that runs first if not then just a 94 and newer teg

 

[Jayteg]

Gotta love them integra's, stock is cool. Just throwing some ideas out there.

Their older stuff is cheap like the tegs. 240sx parts go for about the same. In fact a stock clutch for an S13 240 is cheaper than one for my LS

Yeah lol I was surprised too. My buddy has a 350z and his clutch is around $500 so I thought all Nissan parts were expensive too lol

My 97 200sx with a sr20 was expensive to work on, if you had to take it to a dealer. Seems like they built the car around the motor. I hated working on that thing.

They're basically integras, just rwd. What I mean by that is there's some beat up pos 240s out there and there's some pristine ones, just like an integra. Parts are about the same price too. My friend and her bf both have 240s and they love them and so do I. Nissan builds some solid cars.

Ummm, WRONG....that's like saying Camaro's and Corvette's are the same. Parts for 240sx's are NOT the same price...

It's all according to what motor you running, ka24 run pretty cheap on parts since they're more common. Rwd sr20's can be pricey but once you start messing with RB's lol hope you got deep pockets. I'm talking DE's, I'm sure VE's run even more.

i like the sr20s just bc its not the stock motor lol but if a 240 can last awhile like a civic or teggy can then im all for one

My 240 blew the engine at 290k miles

If you really want to do something unique with the 240sx, try putting a V6 or small V8...The SR20's have been done to death, all you have to do is your research...

I'd rather have a rb26 or vq30, sr20's are common swaps but they're very efficient engines.
