    Any progress on your Vw swap?
  2. Suchfun240z
    I am really looking forward to your build. I have a 240z that the previous owner did a poor job on swapping a ford 302, so I want to swap with the vq35 or vq37. Please post your swap adventures!!! Thank you

    I’m excited to see you are back at it!!! I’m am still very interested in a weld kit...your right hand drive swap is sweet
  4. Suchfun240z
    Sounds like a fun build... I have a 302 with a carb, it’s fun... I still have a long ways to go.
  5. Suchfun240z
    Dont want to bug you, but how is you build coming?
  6. Suchfun240z
    I’d love to, not sure my car will be ready, but having a goal will really help me get it ready.
  7. Suchfun240z
    have You got to get some time on your car? When do your u think you will have a kit for sale? Loafers has been full, but I’ll plan a time to come down sometime this summer.
  8. Suchfun240z
    When you get back keep me posted!!! Are you in Portland? I live in Washington, so I’m not too far... maybe when you have your car back together I can come check it out. I’m petty much planning on following your foot steps and swapping my car like you did yours
  9. Suchfun240z
    I’m really enjoying you build
  10. Suchfun240z
    Sweet!! I think I’d be interested in a tacked up kit.
  11. Suchfun240z
    I am very interested in this setup. When do you think you will have kits ready to sell? I’m looking forward to reading you write up on front brakes. Thank you for helping us all out! Keep up the good work!!!

    Thank you for sharing your 2jz swap! I’m in research mode, and I want to just jump the gun, but I need to learn a lot more.
  13. Suchfun240z
    Great build! Thank you for sharing... I am researching for my build. I’m learning a ton! Thank you, nate

    Hey Jim, I think the gray would look really great... another blue color you may like is a 2002 year bmw color Laguna Seca blue. It may be worth taking a look at? I painted my motorcycle this blue. Your build has given me so much inspiration for my build! Thanks

    seattlejester I would really like to check out your car if you are still in Seattle. I will be in Seattle for about a month for work, so if your have time I’d love to meet up and checkout your car.
  16. Suchfun240z
    ok, I’ll look into the apex lca... Especially if there is more adjustment.
  17. Suchfun240z
    Thank you, I’ll look into that... I’m really interested to see if the frame shop finds anything. I believe the alignment shop printout says my toe in on drivers side is .65 toe in... (the printout is in my car) that is the 2nd time to the alignment shop after changing the LCA and bushings. I’m saving for the t3 adjustable lca, but before I throw money at it I want to see what the frame shop finds.
  18. Suchfun240z
    Thanks guys for your feed back. A little update... I took my car to a frame shop to try to figure out why I have so much toe in on my drivers side rear. I have new wheels, I changed the stock LLC , and put new bushings in, and it was still toe in. I should hear from the frame shop next week. Once I figure out my alignment problem I will research more on a engine swap. I would be very interested in checking out both of your cars. Seattlejester I will be in Seattle for about a month for work, so if your have time I’d love to meet up and checkout your car.
  19. Suchfun240z
    Thank you for your feedback! At this point I am having problems getting my rear drivers side to align... so before anything I need to figure this problem out. How do you like your 2j swap? How is the handling?
  20. Suchfun240z
    wow! I am really looking forward to following your build. I am in the process of researching this swap.
  21. Suchfun240z
    Seattlejester, thank you for your response, and for getting me to really think what I want. I would like to get in the hi 20s mpg, but still have enough power to be fun. I have a motorcycle for sale that should sell for around 5k, so I will have around 5k for a engine swap. I want a car that handles really well. I have dreams of doing track days and I hope to get into autocross. Ill be researching the Sr20det swap, f20 could be interesting. I was thinking the 3sge could be a good option, but since it has not been done... it would take lots of time. I’d really like to go on a ride in a datsun with a Sr20det. I’ll be doing all the work myself, so maybe I’ll only be a few thousand over 😉

    Hi I am doing research on a potential engine/ transmission swap into my datsun 240z. I am new to this forum. I have looked everywhere I know were to look. I want to know if anyone here knows of a Toyota 3sge beams swapped 240, 260 or 280. I bought my car with a hack job Ford 302 swap. At this point I welded a costom engine cradle, and re wired it all. The hammered v8 runs, but it is still not what I want... the reaso I am looking into the 3sge is... you can buy one for 1300 with 6speed. Stock they have around 200hp. I know a lot of ae86s have had successful swaps. I have also found a number of BMW E30s with swapped in 3sge beams. It seems like it be a fun engine in my 240z, and I think it could be done for less then 4,000. Maybe a sr20 is a better since it has be done many times. What do you guys think.

    jmortensen thank you for your response! I'll look in to the apex arms. I looking forward to reading the poor mans solution. did you make your rear lower control arms? It seems like they would not be too difficult to make. I may look into it. $500 to buy a set seems a lot easer, but cash for this project it a bit tight.
