13b Turbo Into 240sx
#1
Well as the title says. I am wanting to put a 13b turbo into my 89 240sx coupe. Does anybody of of an article that list where I can get the conversion peices or a company I can purchase them from, and does anybody know if my current 5 speed can handle the 13b or should I get the original style tranny as well.

I highly doubt your going to find a kit to do this. More than likely you will have to custom fabricate mounts and such. Make it easy on yourself and use the 13BT 5 speed.

I agree with Mazdero, you'll have to custom make pretty much everything. It definetly can be done, there is a buddy of mine here in south FL that had that swap in his car at one time. Good luck with it and keep us updated with your progress.

damn, i was just thinking about that too! i have a 240 with a crap'd out ka. and i didn't want to be like every 240 owner in my town and drop a sr motor in it. still, i'll be taking that project on once spring gets here.
boost_creep: do you know the owner of that car?
in any case, lots of room for a 3rotor
