Giving a 240SX some ***** Yes, I'm an import car driver. No, I'm not putting in an import engine - I want some naturally aspired power... namely, an LS1.
Is there any advise to be had? How do I get it ready, what do I need to change about my suspension, rear end, brakes, driveshaft, exhaust (H pipe?
) all that good stuff. Any input would be appreciated.
For specifics, it's a 1993 240SX S13 coupe with aftermarket 17" wheels. There are NO electronic upgrades that I know of (I got it after the harness was rebuilt after the previous owner, a 16 year old girl, put on jumper cables backwards). 5-speed manual, and the struts were replaced about 7 months ago.
Any help that can be offered would be greatly appreciated.

i just did one in a mustang. turned out great. your stuff will be a little different but you can just make the motor mounts and rans mount, have someone make a drive shaft, and as far as a harness i got one off ebay what worked good for a conversion application. then just hook up the cooling hoses to the radiator. not to terribly hard for someone that has some knowledge about automobiles
