Question Nissan 240sx 3.8 turbo swap

As if I dont have enough to do I bought a 95 240sx and plan to do a TB engine or Ls swap, just wondering if anyone has done the tb engine swap?
I wanted to build a fun daily driver that would be cheap on gas (comparitivly)and I wouldnt want to drive the Buick everyday anyway. Any help would be appreciated.

Cool, I always liked the skyline look!

I have never seen one... but thought that would be a real cool swap..... those are RWD cars aren't they? I had a friend with an '89 coupe that was RWD.... I always wanted the newer style to do a LC2 swap....Be the first on here.....
