We have a 1995 240SX at the shop that we will be starting in January. We plan to offer the same LS1 mounting equipment and support systems as we do for our RX7 product line. We are scheduling to have pricing information, media to download, and a limited build of production parts available by the end of January, 06. There will not be more information available until then, but we will start a new thread here to show progress.
Good luck with your cars, and hopefully we can help a few you in '06.

Anyone know how much it would cost me to do an LS1 swap into an 240? Someone on another forum told me 5k just for the labor does that sound right? And how much torque can the rear diff take before it pops?

Sold it the next day cause he didnt want to fab a new tunnel... Lame.
When did this happen?
Do you know who he sold it to?
Did your friend happen to take any pictures?
Do you know how much did he spent overall for parts/motor?
Thanks in advance.
