Just curious. I'm comin up on 2 years of owning mine and havn't really done much at all. Really wish I could because everything is giving me trouble now, and its drivin me nuts. I can't even drive my car because its not inspected, can't get it inspected because I keep leaking brake fluid, when the brake fluid leaks it gets on my exhaust, and I'm pretty sure, somehow, IN my exhaust and it burns it all and smokes like a beyotch! Plus I have 193,xxx miles on the SOHC and shes hurtin. So yea, how long did you own your 240 before you swapped it/rebuilt it/ whatever you did?

0 days. Bought a shell and swapped it the next day.

Yr. I did everything else before I pulled the motor. Coilovers, Diff, Seats, steering wheel, Light wheels, etc. But I had a strong running motor. And a corolla I was building. So there wasn't much of a point.
