240sx suspension swap

[jozze209]

Hey guys! whats up?!

 

I have an opportunity to buy two 1200 coupe's for a really good deal/Great condition

so I recently got rear ended in my 95 240sx and

I was just wondering if I can swap parts over like:

 

full suspension.

subframe.

interior.

 

ive searched the web and found nothing on this, other then the 280zx suspension swap/ka24e 

 

any advise helps.

 

THANKS!

Post a build thread and let us know how it goes! 

 

Its funny you didn't ask about the engine. I think that would be easier then trying to swap the interior.. 

Some stuff will swap over but will need modification. 

My advice is rescue the 1200's!

It will work fine if you want the wheels sticking out a foot on each side.

Agreed with what Atom and Josh said, hypothetically you could swap over everything if you have enough fabrication skills, money, and dedication. The problem is that the 1200 is a really small car and very little will be straightforward about exchanging components with a 240sx. The reason you haven't read about many 1200/240sx combos is that the 1200 is a rare car, and thus parts for them are very hard to come by. If the goal is for a drift/race car, then you're probably on the right track by combining the 240sx suspension with the 1200 body, would have extensive body mods, but could be done.

thanks for the help! guys

 

I'm going to get the 1200s after thinking it over

one is a 71'

the other 72'

 

as for swapping parts over with suspension, I'm not sure yet(don't want to deal with major headaches)

 

ill try swapping the ka24de after a good build in one of them

and the other a 13b since I have a complete swap laying around

 

but as of now I'm just going to try and get the OG motors going

 

ill try starting a build thread once I get the hang of this site.
