It has begun.... again!

96 S14. only 64K miles on the clock, interior is spik-n-span. I am really excited to do this project. I am bouncing around the details of the project but I'll unveil everything when it makes it's debut.

Here's a sneak peek, enjoy

I was surprised to know that the 1j with a single turbo no tranny wieghs 30lbs less then a KA with out tranny, with IC and piping way more obviously. Anyways, My 1st 240sx with a 1j weighed in at almost 2800lbs. Traction was always an issue so I would put 3 manifolds in the trunk and vuola!

i would be doing most of the work myself if not all of it. my problem is the Xmember for the 1J to bolt to the 240's xmember.

i seen that site 2Jswap.com or whatever and they want like 1500 or more for the xmember.

That is still much lighter than a mk3. they are independant rear right? Just throw a sand bag in the trunk haha. I always said a powerful mk3 or 4 would prob run a better et with 100 extra lbs in the trunk. Does it take any cutting.fabricating to fit the motor in there?

That is a supra 1j converted to front sump and a 95 MKIV w58 tranny. (has the extended shifter necessary for this swap). I ordered a gt4082 from presicion.
I am doing the same set up that I have on my lexus on this 240. Put it up to 450-480rwhp with a long power band. And yeah no cams, just a simple SAFC2 and 550 injectors.

why not use the R154 w/ the jzz GT extension rod.. thats what my friend did for his aristo 2j into S14.

Never the less. nice..
