  1. Hey, pharaohabq do you have a pic of the ac amp
  2. sorry the photos didn't show up, stupid mobile version of the website didn't allow for any attachments, I tried inputing a hypertext link and i guess the website doesn't allow it. Anyhow, heres the pics of the Dash Harness, engine harnes, bcm/ipdm fuse box, ignition switch/ key, steering column, relay box, gauge cluster, ecu, turn signal switches, and body harness as well. plus the gas, clutch, and brake pedal assembly.
  3. Heres a pic of the dash harness, ecu, bcm/ipdm, ignition switch/ key, gauge cluster, turn signals, steering wheel/ column, and a bunch of other stuff...all for $550 (players price lol) hopefully the pic shows up, im trying to upload pic via mobile phone
  4. sorry, its been a while guys...I've been busy with work and overtime and all that good stuff. Anyhow, i finally came around to officially starting the rust repair. I started off cutting out the floor pans (rusted out), then I went over to LOWES home supply and bought some 16gauge sheet metal. the largest size they had were 2ft X 2ft; so i ended up buying two sheets and welded them together. After the two pieces of sheet metal was welded together, I whipped out the cardboard and placed it into the gaping hole where my floor pans used to be and drew up a template of the floor pan. I then traced the cardboard onto the sheet metal and started cutting it. I started the floor pan repair at 3pm and ran out of daylight before i had a chance to weld in some floor rails. Being a nice guy that i am, i didn't want to make too much noise for the neighbors, so I'll do the floor rails tomorrow. And i also wanted to mention that the floor rails I upgraded to 1/8in wall thickness...well, that's it for now. Check out the pics and give me advice.
  5. Thanks for all the replies and suggestions guys. I just bought the gas, clutch, and brake pedal, i'll work on mounting them as soon as I get the motor in.
  6. Im curious on the mounting principles of motors. I was thinking if I were to fabricate my own motormounts, what things do I need to keep in mind? First i'll put the motor on a hoist with transmission mounted. Then make a laser adapter tool to mount to the end of my tranny. Then turn on laser and make sure the laser points directly at the center of the rear differential. I'm concerned about how far back I should mount the motor, how close to firewall should the throttle body be. Im assuming when the motor revs or vibrates, if its too close to the firewall, how much spacing is neccessary to avoid any contact with the firewall. I know I need to modify my front cross member to clear the motor, but can someone tell me how much to cut and how to mount this motor.
  7. The dismantler is called sunrise nissan and infinity in rancho cordova, ca. I dont have the number right now, but just-google-it.
  8. Thanks for the advice guys, i'll be sure to update my progress
  9. I was wondering if everyone doing the vq swap using drive by wire or is it easier to use a throttle cable in conjunction with the q45 throttle body.
  10. Im doing the vq swap in my 73z, and was wondering if austins shifter relocation bracket will work with an ebay short shifter.
  11. heres a pic of my 350z motor....It took 4 guys to carry the motor, since we didn't have an engine hoist available. thats the last time im gonna do that (MY POOR BACK). I also talked to a nissan dismantler and they said that they have an ignition switch/key, ecu, bcm, ipdm, and dash harness from the same donor car all for $550. So Im gonna buy that and a radiator/fan combo from the dismantler. I also took off the ac compressor and power steering pump. I'm just trying to figure how to route my alternator belt
  12. Not sure if its rev up or not, I just read up about the vvti stuff recently, so ill check the beads to see if the cams sprocket area is raised on both sides. My biggest concern is if I need to get the bcm, nats, and ipdm from the same vehicle...or is it just the ignition and key that has to be from.the same vehicle as the motor and ecu? If its not important to find the bcm and ipdm and nats from the same car, i'll just scavenge ebay and craigslist for that and just figure out the ignition and key later...i might just end up calling zfever, who knows.
  13. I just bought a 350 z motor, 6 speed trans with all accessories such as alt, starter, wire harness, p/s, ac compressor, ecu for $2000. However, the guy said that he didn't have the ignition, or key. In addition to that, he also said he already sent the car off to the scrapper...from searching around these forums, I still need the bcm, ipdm,nats, ignition/with key, fm. So since I cant get all the electronics from the same vehicle, what other choicez do I have other than stand alone like haltec. That stuff is expensive!!!! I've read about some guys horror story with zfevers ecu reprogram/ nats removal etc. what other choice do I have? Im not planning to boost, just stock daily driving. I also already ordered the mckinney mount kit for my 73z. Any advice would be very helpful. Thanks robbie
