Guest ON3GO Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 Well i got my 280Z today.. i posted 2 pics in my Album. Its great, it really is. But the motor needs help. im prob gonna get a tune up this week, but i have a few days till i can drive it on the road, and even then i have a few days till i really need to go any where. so im debating buying a L28ET, and a tranny now. think i should? how much can you get a JY l28ET for? plus whats a 5-speed i can put up to it that i can find in a JY? i also figure ill change the motor mounts while im at it. what else should i change while im doing this? Thanks... and by the way i did a search thats why i have have a few questions thanks again mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAD D Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 I bet you want to take the car out for a few spins, and if you start doing a swap you will not get to have fun with it for a long time, right? So beat it with the stock set up for a bit. I have seen a turbo parts car for 500$ I will try and dig it up for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ON3GO Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 thanks man. ya i wanna drive it and have fun, but the way its running right now its not much fun. i mean im having a blast so far. i got it today and i chnaged the oil, oil filter, fuel filter, air filter, wasted it, waxed it, cleaned out the interior as much as i can, re wired the horn. just need a motor, tranny, and whatever (not sure what i need for the swap)... mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest thepenguin99 Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 Dunno if you are looking for a swap car outside FL or not but I have a 1981 zxt I would sell for $300. Drivetrain is complete and was running when I got it (~1 year ago) but has an automatic tranny. I also have a 81-83 5spd I would throw in for an extra $75 bucks. They are located just north of Memphis TN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
