....just had a thought...seems the latest import craze is for S13 and S14 Nissan 240s. The preferred JDM engine swap is the SR20DET. Others have done RB25 and RB26 swaps too (the latter is the twin turbo engine out of the vaunted Skyline). The swap is almost a requirement because of the unloved KA24 2.4L truck engine that was fitted to North American specification 240s.
But how about this - it'd be quite phat, I think, to swap a B234 into this car. The clutch and tranny would have to be figured out, but relatively speaking, one can probably find a B234 more easily than an RB25 or RB26. And a B234 would have the displacement advantage over the SR20.
But then again...the bloody SR20 is aluminum block, so maybe an iron block B234 isn't such a good idea anyway! :)
