Looking for adapter plate for LSx to 240sx 5 speed I've always been interested in the LSx swaps but the cost of the 6 speed is way too high.
How come I've never seen anyone making adapter plates to bolt the LSx to the stock 240sx 5 speed? It can obviously handle the power with all the big power KA-T and SR guys running around.
An affordable adapter plate would make this swap sooo much more doable for me.

I don't think the 240sx transmission is going to do it for you. I broke a couple of them when I had my old sr powered s13. Most of the 240sx guys are adapting the z32 300zx 5 speed to the ka/sr now.

Power doesn't mean squat when you are talking about the driveline--torque is what rips transmissions apart. An LS1 makes more torque at 1000 rpm than a typical turbo KA-T makes at peak.

A built t56 will do you good.
