Well, its been dyno proven that with the KA motor, 3" gives a moderate GAIN in hp over a 2.5in...ask any 240sx guy. As clearly stated, I have a good shop so dont worry about that. Oh, and since you know my budget, what would you reccomend putting in?

Just a couple of newb questions. The car is a 95 240sx. I am doing a custom headers back exhaust. I am looking to swap to a 1jzgtte in a little less than a year but I still want a little more sound and performance out of my ka24. All the 240sx guys have told me that because of its larger displacment four cylinder, I should go 2.75 or 3 in. I would also like to avoid having to swap exhausts when I go with the 1j. MY questions are as follows... 1. Where can I get mandrel bent 2.75 or 3in. piping. Is that ebay stuff quality or is there a name brand place to get my pipes? 2. I am planning to run an ACTUAL hks or apexi muffler, how loud is this going to be? Should I also get a resonator? 3. (for the KA24/240sx guys) I want to go testpipe, is this going to throw my ka24 out of tune badly? I have found a good guy at a reputible place to bending, welding and assembley is no issue. Any other comments or advise would be appreciated.. Thanks as always, Max.

BTW...anyone in Midwest wanna do this swap? If so, how much will you charge?

Snapped the driveshaft on my 280Z. It has a perfect interior and amazing exterior but has 210,000 miles on it so thought it would be kind of pointless to swap out the tranny and not the engine too. It is a n/a but I would like to go turbo. I think I may have found a l28et engine/tranny combo and was wondering how easy or hard the swap is...are they the same mounts? Will it bolt up? How often are these swaps preformed? If I were to get a shop to do it what would be a ballpark quote for labor? Wiring? Thanks guys any feedback is appreciated. Max
