Guest MASSappeal Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 wasup people. Im not a Z owner yet but com tommorrow im kissing my Civic goodbye for a nice NA 300ZX. The main thing i wanted to change though was the NA. Now i can get the VG30DETT engine fromhttp://www.enginelandinc.com for $1250 but what i was hoping to find out is would it be cheaper converting the NA to TT or just going for the TT swap. I found info on the TT conversion here... http://ashspecz.com/gallery/slicktop/Na-TTConversion/natoturbo.htm but that sure seems like alot...a bit more than i expected.

Guest TeamNissan Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Just do a swap and use a costom ic set up, very easy and strait forward. I've done it twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MASSappeal Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 another thing is that its an automatic and is the VG30DETT gonna have problems bolting up to the auto tranny or is everything gravy like TeamNissan is sayin'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TeamNissan Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Auto tranny is the same for tt and n/a. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jtsmg Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Man I was always told that the TT had a different tranny. I just bought a 1991 TT and the automatic tranny is slipping. Is there any other swaps out there. Are there any trannys out there that can handle the power. I'd like to know. I love these cars. I got the car from a friend. Basically a one owner family. His moms car then his uncle then his car. Now mine. hahahaha got it at a steal hope I can make it run 12's and just cruse it. any help would be appreciated TeamNissan or any one hahaha. Thanks Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TeamNissan Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 The automatic trannys on the tt and na are EXACTLY the same. If its slipping its most likely the tq converter. It goes befor anything on the 90-96 300zx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtcookson Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Are you sure about that? I know the manual trannies are the same but the I thought there was a difference in the auto trannies... Either way though, the stock auto trannies always tend to be weak but they can be easily built up to handle power. Just have to drop some money into it at a performance tranny shop and you'll be set. A definite good upgrade would be a tranny cooler. The stock ones never seem to suffice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
