For engineering stuff you can't go wrong with either ProEngineer or Solidworks. Solidworks is very similar, and a much more intuitive program with better tutorial support. Learning any system will give you the basics though, so you can adapt pretty quickly.
You certainly can't get them on torrents by searhing google either.

cos that not an unbiased opinion.
It entirly depends on what you want to model...
Autocad isnt straight forward although it isnt rocket science.
Sketch up is crude but does the job,
solid works is complicated and runs as a bolt on to cad...
Im a draughtsman by trade and do pretty much anything and everything although I do very little 3d, But i have worked with 3d modellers over the years and they dont have an issue with autocad etc
