Take a car like this ’98 Nissan 240SX with its light weight, rear-wheel-drive chassis. Swap a turbocharged LS V8 engine into it, coupled with a Tremec T-56 six-speed manual transmission, and what do you get?
The answer is a 831 rear-wheel horsepower street friendly car with all of the modern amities you could ask for.
It’s abundantly clear that this turbocharged LS swapped ’98 240SX for sale has had no expense spared. Every component upgraded has been carefully chosen for a purpose. Supporting the new Garrett GTX4202R turbocharger is a fully built, fully forged 6.0 liter LQ9 iron block which uses a set of Eagle rods, an Eagle crankshaft, and Diamond pistons. A custom turbo-ground camshaft and supporting valve train components helps the OEM LS2 intake manifold and 92mm throttle body rush fresh air into the newly forged engine. Holding the package together is an ARP cylinder head and main stud set.
But it's not just about the power capability with this 240SX. A built T-56 six-speed manual transmission and Mcleod twin-disc clutch ensures ample power is put to the ground. While a completely revamped suspension using Stance Pro fully adjustable coilovers, OEM Nissan Z32 braking components, and Hawk Racing brake pads secures the car to the ground and ensures it stops safely.
Fueling the the high-horsepower beast is accomplished using a set of 80lbs/hr fuel injectors, paired to a Walbro 450 LPH fuel pump and a set of Holley fuel rails, regulated by an Aeromotive fuel regulator.
