Well Fellas...i got a car....
 i just bought a 1990 Infiniti M30 AKA Nissan Leopard. 112k miles, sunroof, leather, CD, Cassette, etc etc. the price? $800 Canadian. that's right. it's in pristine condition, but there's one catch. the tranny is shot. doesn't really matter to me, as i want to swap in the 5-speed from a 300ZX anyways, since it's automatic stock. one of the tail-lights is also broken, but that's easy to fix. the car is in IMMACULATE condition. this is the greatest steal ever for $800. i know, i know. it's not a 240. but don't worry! i'll add a 240 to my garage in the future, and this was too good a deal to pass up. plans for the future include SR20DET, suspension, rims, tires, brakes, lightening. i'm not sure if anyone makes body-kits for 'em, but we'll see. here's teh link0r. http://www.trader.ca/Search/Enlarged...goryid=1&CAT=1 don't worry, the bling-bling rims will be going fairly quickly after i get it home.

Great choice, man! I miss my M30 sometimes, and you addressed the one reason I wouldn't buy another one: the transmission. Mine didn't go out or anything; it was just....boringly automatic : ). And yes, to whomever asked, it's rear-wheel drive. And if you guys need some more stats, it's a 3.0L V-6 that puts out 162bhp and 180lb-ft of torque. I've never been certain about the 0-60 times; one thing I found said 10sec, but it certainly felt a lot faster than that. I would estimate about 8sec though. Overall, though, it's a nice car. Very luxurious :P.

VG30E SOHC V6, 162hp. will be replaced eventually with SR or possibly RB of some form, depending on how much money i have...
and yeah, don't worry. since the auto is shot, i'll take the opportunity to swap in a 5-speed from a Z31 or Z32 300ZX.

i don't know much about that car but wouldn't the easiest swap be maybe a vg30dett from the 300zx? i figured that since there both the vg-seies and both 3 ltr. it may be a pretty straight forward swap.

VG30E is ALOT narrower than VG30DETT. Remeber, single cam N/A vs. twin cam twin turbo. Since this car is near identical to the R31 skyline, I was thinking RB series swap, or possibly, the VG or SR swaps metioned above.
