the answer is no

it sounds like your car is in mint condition.. 33k miles?.. oh my..

you basically want to sell your car and buy another car with the same amount of money, has more mileage,will be slower than what you have, AND IT HAS AN UNKNOWN ENGINE HISTORY LIFE..

but youll get this.. rwd and be uber cool with an sr20det in your 240sx.. well not so uber anymore!

4g63 is a bad ass motor, at least EQUAL to potential of an sr20det..

and dont forget, you ever total your car or get it stolen, there goes your 5000 engine investment..

which equates to a not so economically sounding investment..
