  1. I believe the 6-speed trans for the 4.0 is FS6R31A, but I don't know what the driveshaft for it looks like. Oh, and if the 4.0 tranny mates up to the HR, you would probably have another option as far as gear ratios go.
  2. You can try WPC treatment. Here's some stuff on it: http://www.turbomagazine.com/tech/0608_turp_revolutionary_engine_protection/index.html
  3. I believe the Nissan Frontier with the 4.0L V-6 is an HR block. So, you may be able to source a driveshaft or some yokes off of that.
  4. That's good to hear! I've been following your build as well. You get that rear suspension tuned to your liking yet?
  5. Nice stuff. I've got a pair of B&W 603's, and have always been impressed with their sound. And I hear the new 600 series is awesome, especially for the cash.
  6. Hey 240Hoke, how does your car handle now? I'm not sure if you have power steering or not, but if you don't, does the weight of the motor being farther behind the front wheels alleviate some steering effort? Do you notice any understeer, oversteer, nuetral changes in the way your car behaves now? I really like the idea of this swap. Keep us posted on how its working out for you.
  7. Well, if we're talking about the same chip board, I had to use that stuff for an architecture class. You can get it at an art supply store. Vinyl can be found at a fabric store. Just google "fabric store", and your area.
  8. The 6th gear ratio is .794. My guess of top speed would be about 155-165, because of aero, and you'd still want to do something to take care of that front end lift you find in the Z.
  9. If you go to Maxima.org in their engine tech section, I believe they've done it before. I'm not sure, it's been awhile since I've been on there. But you can definitely find your answer there.
  10. How high can that thing rev to? The sound is most definitely incredible. A little off topic, but I think the Scoot has '03-'04 Infiniti M45 tail lights.
  11. Lighter internals (pistons, connecting rods, etc.)
  12. I clean the wheels first. If there's alot of brake dust on them, it can get all over your freshly washed car. Then I go from top to bottom.
  13. It's your car, do what YOU want to enjoy it. Oh yeah, it looks great.
  14. I can see it now....A huge turbine engine jutting out the hatch of a 240Z. I hope they address the poor aerodynamics before they begin. Nothing like seeing a car take flight!
