Guest ColoradoZ Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 Ok I'm a newb to this whole classic hybrid scene. I need to know a few things. How much, and would it be possible to do. I would like to do the following to a 240z (say i have none of it). I want to put a vg30dett, plus the z32tt tranny, and its rear diff r230 Lsd if i'm not mistaken. a 280zx front and rear brake conversion, with m/c. some coilovers that would fit the car, custom driveshaft if needed. now i have the car, and can get the engine(complete with tranny) and all for 3000$, how much would the rest cost, and would it be possible???? any imput would greatly help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ColoradoZ Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 I forgot to say not 280z brakes i meant like wilwood front and rear with all new hardware, brake lines and m/c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 http://www.datsunrestore.com/custom2.html lots of fabrication, welding etc to do a VG30 swap into a 240z i thought about it for a while but seems like its more trouble than its worth.

Guest ColoradoZ Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 Iv'e seen that web site and I know it can be done, my Friend can weld like no ones bisness,so im not too worried about that, but i'm wondering if i'd have to make some custom exhasut manifolds for the turbos????

Guest Anonymous Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 I don't think the welding is the hard part. Its all the fabrication and relocation/modification of existing components.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest galo913 Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 any one know what existing components would need to be modified? what kinds of problems would a fairly adept mechanic run into while doing this swap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
