BRAD D Posted December 6, 2002 Author Share Posted December 6, 2002 Thanks for all the complements zpeedrazer looks like we have some of the same parts, gauge consol , SDS computer, Apexi intercooler but mine is for a GTR. Nice work, trade me motors? I don’t know? It would be nice to be finished. ON3GO all my prices are in Canadian so you can X it by 0.65 to see what it is in US dollars. But for the paint job, my buddy is the owner of the shop it was done at. But the paint was 1200$ (house of kolor = big $$$), soda blasting was 500$ and i gave my buddy 1000$, but it should have been a lot more. Bob H what kind of gearbox mount are you going for? My next step is to pull out the motor and paint the motor bay i think I’m going to go black, then run the gas lines, on my photos you can see the start of my gas tank mods.

Guest Anonymous Posted December 6, 2002 Share Posted December 6, 2002 ON3GO the dash just has a cap on it. I cut out aluminum for the 3 gauges on the top, and fabbed up a center console out of aircraft alumium wrapped in vinyl. The intercooler is off of a stock silvia in japan, bought it at a race shop in austin, and got some end tanks welded on there. S30Z, nope no interal work yet. Just some bolt ons. It was remanufactured at one point in time though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Zachb55 Posted December 6, 2002 Share Posted December 6, 2002 around $6800 for you guys to do it huh? hmm, i found a guy who can get me a 2JZ-GTE TT W/6 spd. to my door for around $5500, i could imagine the rest of the swap would put me about $2000 over that, not including any upgrades on non-related parts, brakes, etc... that would put me in the same region as you. and i thought the 2JZ would cost fortunes more . thats still alot of mula though, it should be a while till i can get that much saved up... -Zach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ON3GO Posted December 6, 2002 Share Posted December 6, 2002 i do ike the center dash. looks awesome. i want to do the same thing but i have a extra unit, its a TV/DVD unit, so ill put that where ur boost controller is. Im trying to see if i can get the AEM ems, cuz it controls Boost also, along with Nitrous.. and i need to put my system to good use, its just laying around. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David K Posted December 6, 2002 Share Posted December 6, 2002 Brad, If you can give me a writeup and pics of the car before you started and some info on what insipired you to do the swap, i can do the layout and post it as the beginning of the project. Choose a name for the project. We will do updates every 2 weeks to a month, or whenever you get some major work done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
