I have already seen a twin turbo ls1 in a skyline, someone beat you to it. sorry to be the bearer of bad news edit: here is the link

i like this idea, but i live in S.C..... :flamedevi We don't have smog inspections :flamedevi

it can be a learning experience then. lol.

how much would you charge to do this to a 1985 300 zx? But using an ls1 instead of ls2??? Just curious

yay, grumpy isn't dead. lol. that guy scared us grumpy.

I agree with bschiltz, if it has an ls7 in it I will GLADLY drive and abuse it. >

what hood does it have? he hasn't replied yet, so do u have any updated pics?

yeah, if my plans come through, its still for sale, and he is willing to ship it, I should be able to buy it.

someone on here, I can't remember who for the life of me, has/had a BEAUTIFUL silver car that had a swap done to it, and it was for sale for $8,000 firm in his sig. I don't know if I just can't find him or if it has been removed from his sig and been sold. can someone please tell me who it is and if he still has it. thanks in advance -typhoone

okay, custom mounts it is. now, anyone know about that silver beauty?

well, I guess my search continues. lol. just wondering, the jtr mounts, will they work for an Ls1/2 or no? I believe in go big or go home, so will I be able to use those or just make my own? on another note, I can't remember who but someone on here had a BEAUTIFUL silver car with a swap already done, and asking $8,000. can someone tell me who that was and if it is still for sale?

that is a hard guy to get ahold of, and even harder to get him when he has free time to go look at the car. those are some nice rust spots, made me sad when i saw them. How much extra would it cost when i take it to get a paint job. i plan on getting a nice paint, so i am already expecting to pay a decent amount but around how much extra to fix those craters? so, is it worth $3000??? or should i just grab acleaner 240, get a 350/lsx/etc, get some mounts, and do it myself?? i have a lot of respect for the HybridZ community, so i will go with whatever you guys say. thanks in advance -Typhoone

your car is beautiful.....i want it. lol.

I don't know how long their turnaround time is, but there number is on the top of their website and they are very polite and knowledgeable so give them a call and work something out.

the tranny has problems and its slow outta the hole, so it is probably the tranny.

okay, i will try to meet up with the guy this weekend and take some pics and post them if i can. weekend = no classes, so it shouldn't be too hard to get ahold of him.

Okay, i have lent my mother some money until the end of next month when her husband should be getting a nice inheiritance, and she said she would pay me back with gobs and gobs of interest, somewhere in the neighborhood of 2000%.....yeah....BIG inheiritance... now, to the point. There is a 74 240z with a 350sbc crate motor, bored .030 over, turbo 350 tranny. runs nice. only real problems is that the tranny is kind of sluggish, don't really care. I have gotten used to a manual transmission, and i LIKE it, so i want to put in a different tranny anyway. Also, the speedo/tach doesn't work. no biggy, i can gladly get all that hooked up. also, there is rust under the fender wells...the usuall, and he said that is the only rust spots. i haven't got a chance to look at it up close, but he is a trustworthy guy and i plan on looking at it soon. he only wants $3000 for it, basically he just wants what he owes the bank because he has lost interest in the project and he plans on moving pretty soon. so, is it worth it? thanks for the info -Typhoone

it's amazing what turning the rotors can do. hey cali, what is your buddies myspace address that does the swaps? i might be able to get him some money, a couple of my buddies want sr swaps.

tell him to get his rotors turned, I had that shaky thing with my Eclipse, got the rotors turned and viola' everything is so much smoother.

...people are retarded....if you are going to scam someone, do it right. lol

keepup toofast catchme byebye or one I saw the other day and laughed VERY hard about: midlife

.....damn.....what is his myspace address? I might wind up talking to him about some swaps my buddies want done.

well, as long as you have the stuff that is required like motor, tranny, radiator, etc. they will put it in. they will do the mounts, driveshaft, etc and the rest of the custom stuff. you supply everything that would be with the motor and tranny if it was in the other car. radiator, etc has to be provided, but when you get your car back it will be running, electronics, plumbing, and all. they can't tune chevy motors since they specialize in import motors etc, but at least you will have a running car that CAN be tuned. lol

I was doing more research on swaps and Zs and all that fun stuff and I found this site http://www.tophatperformance.com I called them up and they said that if I supplied the motor/tranny they would do the 350sbc swap for around $2000. not too bad if u ask me, especially if you are like me and work 6 nights a week and have school 5 days per week. I know some people want to do swaps and would rather pay someone than do it themselves, so here ya go, have fun.

Yeltons? what are their labor rates? i am really scared to hear/see a price on getting this fixed....
