Great advise my over all goal for the z with in the year or so is to get it up and running and putting the TLC into the car before i get ready for the major swap later down the road. For the motor I was thinking of just swapping out a rebuilt long block so it would just be direct bolt on to get the motor running good and then suspension and any rust holes that i might come buy get all fixed up then paint and interior

How easy would the sr20 be to swap in? I would like to keep it inline six, though open for anything.

Haha yes I totally understand ya

What kind of suspension work would you suggest? and higher ratio diff?

Thanks alot guys on the feedback you guys are all reassuring what I was thinking about doing which is the L28ET swap I want something I can get up and running good in a short aamount of time I do plan later on once im in a position to do so doing the rb25det swap but from what ive researched this is not an easy swap and take alot of time and money that i do not have at the moment as bad as it sounds I have a budget and I want the best I can get from this budget.

Hello to everyone I am new to the classic z world and plan on picking up a 260 or 280 within the months Ive been doing some research on trying to find the cheapest and easiest swap for the datsun I guess I could start off by tellling you guys my goal for the over all car till im done with college and that is something to drive around on the weekends for a little joy ride not looking to make huge gains in hp but something that still has a little get up and go when I want it I am also focused on a reliability. So far from my research the only thing I could really come up with is just swapping in a l28 rebuilt long block from this website called www.datsunpartsllc.com Any information would be nice I am a long time honda fan who has stepped to the other side haha I can talk for days about that whole scene but no nothing at all about nissans please any help would be greatly appreciated
