suggestion, comments, concerns??? i know its not a 240Zx but come on..... and i just sold my z32 tt project if that count toward any thing...
-
plan is:
ENGINE
port/polish the SC plus teflon impellars
SC pulley
intake
exhaust
roller rockers
cam
new head gasket(the cougar was 150 bucks with a blown HG, hey...)
ring the heads
ect ect
DRIVE TRAIN:
cheap high performance clutch kit
ANY BUILT t5 from a v6 84-04 mustang
custom drive shaft
z32 rear end
z32 hubs(5-lug big brake conv)
ect ect
EXTERIOR:
koukie(jdm) spoiler
koukie(jdm) tail lights
wide body(for offsets not rice)
s13.4 conversion( 94-99 jdm front end conversion)
end project = cheap torquey daily drifter for... did i mention cheap?????
only issues i for see are:
Mounts... ill just hard mount it all, after all it is going to me a daily drifter/track car
Wiring Harnes: ill splice down the non essential parts of both the ford and nissan wiring harness and loom them together
Gauges: custom mounted within the stock cluster and pillar pod.
END RESULT will be some where around 360HP/410TQ 2500lb drift car for around 3000 bucks(5000 after body work). i had the cougar sitting around, the z32 parts car was just sitting around, and ive always wanted a 240 but the head gasket blew on the way home from buying the @$#%thing.
ill post pics soon

so if you really wanna go for the 3.8SC conversion then do it man.... 5.0HO are over played.
and yes i intend to post this in the build forum as well before any one politefully suggests that
3.8SC bastardized 240sx

yeah i know theres alot of room for critisizm lol... but i bought the cougar for 150 bucks, already had the z32 parts laying around, and bought the 240sx for 600 bucks.... so its all there... it makes sence.... i just gotta get time and what little fundage i need to make it happen
hence forth the "bastardized budget build" nickname;)
and who said anything about an L67???? and cougar's, 300zx's, and 240sx's are ALL rear wheel drive... why would i have to worry about converting anything from FWD???
