Hi guys!
I got a problem. I got a 240SX Vert in CA but I live in Sweden (still no Greencard).I would like to ship the car soon but need to swap the engine before I do that, that way I can register the car here with a better engine.Got two options, a CA and a RB25, both engines in LA.
Do we have any swappers in that area? Maybe on Nico?I got a new job and can´t get time off to fly there right now, we planned to swap it in Jan.
Strange Swap question...

Like Tim said, I'd love to help, but I'm in KS...

If you can get it to CO I'd be happy to help you out Mike. I have some friends in LA but none of 'em are car ppl.

Re: (Bwana)
Thanks guys!
Bwana: Is CO Colorado? Two days drive from LA?The car is ready to drive at the monent but hard to drive back if we only make a half swap.The goal is to get the engine into the car and get it to look pretty stock, no need to be running and all wires connected.
What´s the normal cost for a swap at a company in USA?

Re: (Swedish Mike)
Yea, CO is Colorado, about 20 hr +/- drive from LA. I don't know if we have any CA guys in the LA area, but I know there are a bunch of NICO folks around there. You might try posting something up in the 240 gen forum and see if there's anybody there that can help you out. If not there's sure to be someone who could point you in the right direction for a good shop to do it. I'd be happy to do it, but logistically it would probably be difficult and end up being expensive (travel etc.).
