It just came to mind. Its a lame joke.

I just remembered at that moment seeing those pics of 240SX's with an L28et... and I gotta asky "why" ??? If you can't afford a newer turbo engine then keep your stock KA.

That looks like a good parts car. I don't think you should bother swapping a VG30eT into it. But that's just my opinion.

Ya got me all wrong, I was going to swap the VG30et into my 82' N/A coupe, the black and silver one. Heres pics of the 77' that will be the new home for the L28et...I'm thinking maybe some black chearry pearl paint would look smoken'. I pulled the motor in the 77' this afternoon, looked the body over real good. Floor pans will have to be replaced. Thats what the blue one is for(R.I.P.), sometimes ya gotta have two to get one. That white one is a T U R D, I personally cant stand the lines on the 2+2(sorry guys). I'm gonna through a N/A motor in that white 2+2 and flip it to fund the 77' project.
