Vr6 in a 350z


rocks

Recommended Posts

I have a 350z so i read the 350z forums from time to time and came across this. I thought this would be kind of cool in a Z car. I have beat my Z transmission for 60k miles and it never misses a beat. It has taken 8000 rpms shifts and back back drag racing with no problems. This guy also did a delorean with a 2jz, and is currently doing another with a vr6 from what I can find. It appears from doing some research that it is possible to buy the vq trans adaptor from him. Enjoy.

I think it would be a good fit in a z if you wanted something different.

That's a very cool project (the Delorean too!).  I've always thought that the VR6 was a great idea - now that you mention it, I'm kind of surprised that nobody here has tried it yet...

I've always loved VR6's, extremely compact, decent power out of the box, and very exotic sound, supported by a healthy aftermarket. I wonder if there's any off-the-shelf bellhousing adapters for RWD transmissions... I would do horrible things for a supercharged VR6 in my 280Z, it even keeps the stock displacement.
