I was helping a friend move last week and his girlfriends friend offered me a deal on this thing that i couldnt pass up... its a 89 240sx with 194k miles on her with a body that is in great shape to be 20 years old. All she needs is a head gasket a tune up a battery and a windshield. Here's the pics... More to come as it progresses. I play to get it running and drive it as a dd since i am paying 240 bucks a month for diesel... and maybe down the road either sell it to buy a bike or powersports toy or do a sr or ls1 swap



KA24e single cam

And it has a full interior with a back seat haha


I only gave 200 bones for it with a clear title haha

Nice pick up dude. I thought the single cams were ka24e's not de. The de's didn't come out until 91 if my memory serves me. I say screw the sr swap. To played. Definitely do the ls swap or go a little crazy and do an rb swap. That'd be sick.

Go with the SR20 it's common but, that also means that you should be able to do it fairly cheap, and with less headaches.

I have been rather busy myself I joined a Volunteer Fire Dept and am considering a career change into the emergency medical field... I had not seen that thread yet, that is freaking awesome! How much power is it putting down?

The SR swap is very tempting seeing as how you can pick up a sr with a trans for about a grand off importatlanta.com...

I haven't dyno'd it yet.  I'm guessing I should be making around 300-325 whp right now.  I'm going to dyno it before I install the aftercooler and water/meth kit.

Sweet! I would have been paying you a visit if I had traveled with a guy from work who went to boston for new years... but i didnt have enough time saved up or the funds... that is crazy... I have heard of intercoolers, but never an aftercooler?

How much boost?

Intercooler = Aftercooler  I'm making about 8-9 PSI at 7600 RPM.  It's too bad you couldn't make it up here.
