Default New Guy doing LS1 swap into Nissan

Hey everyone, im new to the forums (obviously) and figured i would start here.

for starters, I am really big into drifting, and am on a drift team. Well, 2 of my teammates have v8's in their cars, and i figured i should hop on the bandwagon.

i currenty have a nissan 240sx with an rb25det motor in it (out of a R33 skyline from japan). I am selling the motor and have already purchased an LS1 to go in its place.

here is a few videos of the team. The guy in the red chop top 240sx has a LS1 in his car, the striped blue RX-7 with the shaker hood has an sbc 350, and my car is the sparkly blue 240sx with the rb25:

if you want to watch some more of our drift videos, check out www.GETMONEYdrift.com


But anyways, plans for the motor are h/c/i, headers for clearance issues, and a few other things.

Im in the market for an ls6 intake, a clutch, and a good t56, so if you have one for sale, let me know! thanks.

and that version of the song was different, but pretty good.

just a little update, got the motor with an MS3 cam, rods, and valve springs. all it needs is a tranny and clutch as far as making it complete.

got A LOT of other parts i need to make it work in my nissan, along with some other upgrade parts, but i will keep things updated. maybe make another thread....
