Yeah, some gnarly inline-6s will fit into that engine bay. One of my old coworkers is working on getting the sr20det swap for his 240... which will make it damn fast.
I still prefer my GS-R... but I know it wouldn't hold a candle to a nicely swapped 240sx... but those are in a different league...

The RB25DET is a swappable motor but the swap is not quite as simple as SCC would have you believe. It also adds almost 200 lbs to the car. The RB26DETT aside from being prohibitively expensive will most definitely not fit in the 240.
Regardless, it doesn't matter what you can swap into the car unless you actually swap it.

Im sorry but 240's are slow as balls unswapped. I pull on them like there standiing still. Not a sports car in stock form what-so-ever. Crappy handling stock, sluggish motor...its really got nothing until u get into the aftermarket.

I came to the conclusion that I could beat an automatic 240 by atleast 3-4 cars. So even for me, a manual wouldn't beat me by more than a car. RWD and low end power hypes them up. My sister had nothing but problem after problem with hers. Not saying it's every 240, but Honda definitely takes Nissan in reliability.
