  1. I am building a 4wd vg30dett pathfinder right now..( search for "twin turbo project" on npora forums).. I dont know if any of those parts are an option, but I modified my Pathfinder oil pan to fit zx engine. This probably doesn't apply to your application, but I will have a 4wd vg30dett! LOL

  2. Oil Pan update #3: The Z31 pan wont work either, it is deeper in the front than the truck pan. So this leaves me cutting the truck pan, and adding metal to fill in the gap.

     

    The engine is pretty much buttoned up, other than the pan, and I am waiting on the turbos to come back. Then it will be a matter of weather, and finances. I was going to do the swap over 'Xmas break', but I realized that I could not afford certin things that still need to be paid for, like exhaust, oil cooler, intercooler piping, gauges, engine mounts, etc. Now I am waiting for the threat of snow to leave, and hopefully by then I will have the finances and final parts set aside I can start the actual swapping, which will probably be around 'spring break' time...

     

    Hey, its great to see someone else doing this conversion. You are at almost the exact place I am on my project. I am doing the VG30DETT swap into a 1995 Pathfinder. I have my pan almost finished and found a relocating kit from Trans-Adapt so I can just move my oil filter away from the oil pan sump. I have my transmission finished and am working on the mount issue right now and hope to be ready for a trial drop of the engine within the next couple weeks to see what all I need to modify in the engine bay and mounts. .... By the way, the oil pan fabrication is a real pain in the rear!!
