Hey Guys, im new to the scene here and have some questions. First off i am only 15 so i dont have a car yet, and i was looking at a 95 240Sx. Which version is that (s13, s14, s15)Second, i have heard alot about a KB24 or Kb024, or something along those line, engine swaps. Are these easily accomplished, and how much does it cost for me to do it. Also where can i buy everything.Third is, is the KB24 reliable. Is the Stock aswell.

Fourth, is a 95 a good year or should i go later or back. I plan to have a bodykit and other External features, so looks isnt a issue.

Fifth, Is a 95 240Sx a "Silvia"

Sixth, Um... Thanks for your help

Oh, and if there are some good sites on these subjects feel free to post them.

Thanks again:ylsuper

But if daddy buys you this car, it will most definitely NOT be a Slivia. No matter what you have under the hood, or what silly badges you have on the exterior, it will always be a 240SX.

Most of your questions can be answered through searching a reading.

Welcome :)

Edit: You're 15. You won't know how to drive/handle the car properly for a LONG time. Dreaming about the engine swaps is nice, but please don't just jump into one. ;)

I. Never. Said. That.

The only thing I can think you're confusing that with is the car not being a "Silvia." I was simply stating there were never any "Silvia's" made in the U.S., therefore, you would have a 240SX, not a "Silvia."

I was trying to pre-emptively ward off any misconceptions that many new people often have. :)

Edit: S13GUY, either way...more posts. And I'm SOOOO close to my T51R's an NOS so no loss for me. :D

the cost for a ka24DE is about $900, the cost of a alright Sr20det without the clip is $1500, with is a little more, the Skyline engine with clip is about $4000. But like it was said earlier, dont just jump into one, im only 17 and I still have a lot to learn about driving, and the only way to learn is to practice. Just get the license first.

You guys be nice and keep it civil. He's *trying* to learn. That's why he's here. Not too many care about much beyond getting their license at that age.

Spikevyxel, welcome. There is a VERY helpful search button, upper right. If you indeed get a Nissan, rest assured you've already found the best site for learning about them.
