What kind of swap Kit do I need for my Nissan 240SX?
Sikky’s Spec Your Own LSx swap kit is an entry level kit consisting of engine and transmission mounts. Optional items can be added as needed to make this kit unique to your specific swap needs. Can be used on LS1, LS2, LS3, LS6, L99, LQ4, LQ9, LSA, LS7, LS9, LSX and any other LS based engine using this engine mount and oil pan bolt pattern.
Can a LS engine be swapped into a Nissan 240?
There’s certainly a cheap way to stuff an LS into a 240 but that often comes with a lot of headache and constant failures. I’ve read people bragging an LS swap can be done for $2000, all I have to say is good luck! This swap can be done on a budget but do yourself a favor and don’t skimp out on cheap shit.
How much does a Nissan 240SX V8 engine cost?
Let’s start with the engine. I used an LS3 e-Rod crate engine that will set you back roughly $7,800 (The engine itself can be purchased for $6500). That also includes cats, headers, an air filter and other minor accessories.
Can a Nissan 240SX SR20 be swapped for a RB30?
First off there are 3 RB swaps that are known to be done ( Im excluding the RB30 hybrid as it is a rare swap). OK, this motor is a common choice among RB enthusiasts. This is the exception of the list order. It is cheaper than the S13 SR20. 2.0L single turbo, pretty rev happy and again, the cheapest way to say “I have a skyline motor”.
