You can also drop a 350chev in them :P

Hah, a friend of mine at uni had one and they're insanely tough.

Yeah, I used to have one too. First car I ever drove. Taught me everything I need to know about driving (which explains a lot).

I checked the VSI's for modified cars when I had it, and with the car's kerb weight you can legally fit a 5.0L FI engine (Holden 308 twin turbo, anyone?) or a 5.7L NA (350 Chev, LS1, etc). Got sleeper?

And mine was tough too. I drove it hard, and drove it into a few things, and the thing just kept on running. I also once had some guy in an EA Falcon mistake his throttle pedal for his brake and shunt into the back of me. The Falcon's front bar was smashed, radiator mounts broken, cracked headlights.

My Volvo's rear bumper was scuffed and marked with the Falcon's paint, and with a KFC moist towelette I got rid of that.

Last lunatic I knew with a 240 coupe threw a 350 in his and used to drive it all over the place getting whacked on by Sydney traffic for a few years, sick bastard also used to put little flags down the front quarter panel on the drivers side.

They where not for drags won... they where for cars and bikes the damn thing had run into it, killed and kept going :laugh:

About the only thing comparable in 'sedan' toughness I can think of off the top of my head is the old W123 mercedes chassis, those things just keep on going for a half a million miles, hit with clusterbombs, antipersonel mines, sprayed down with 7.62mm rounds and keep on rollin', ride of choice for 3rd world gangstas! :)

You could probably have a beach party and V8 under the hood with one of them!

not that cheap but you could probably get it cheaper off them without stereo, wheels, etc and then you have a shiny blue paint job to look at

how about a datsun 1600? a mate of mine has one that he would be willing to swap for a set of nismo 740cc injectors for a s15 ($500 from nengun)

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
