240sx conversion

I know of the very popular SR20DET conversion, but has anyone tried, or heard of anyone, doing a VG30DETT conversion on a 240sx?

Re: 240sx conversion

Go into to the 240SX forum and just search "VG30". It's been brought up a number of times and I believe there was even a few links to pictures of just this kind of project.

Really a KA-T or SR20 would cheaper and more suited to the S13-14 platform. Especially the KA-T considering stupid amount of money people are willing to pay for beat up SR20 motors.

Re: 240sx conversion

not worthwhile at all...too much customization and the increased difficulty of performing minor maintenance tasks that come along with the VG30DETT let alone in a smaller chassis.
