83 maxima rwd l24

[wearedrivenz]

some guy i know is selling a 83 maxima with a efi l24

 

i know i could use allot of parts to put in my z cars

 

but the engine i am not shure if i would use that or just as a spare if i change the oil pan

 

i could use the trans too

 

but i am not sure i could use the differential and the cv shafts they are different i think they look like turbo zx shafts

 

does anyone know if i could use the rear end with the shafts in my 83 zx ?

 

or if the trans bolts right on?

 

is a maxima a good parts car?

There's more involved than just changing the oil pan. The oil pick-up tube is in the wrong location as well. Major work to use, and then you will have a smaller engine with less horsepower.

 

There’s very little parts interchange between the Maxima and a 280ZX. Completely different bodies, interiors, suspensions, braking and electrical systems.

 

The tranny can be used without any issues. People pay good money for the Maxima (N47) head. The diff will be an R-180 with a 3.70 ratio. Yes, you can use the Maxima diff and the CV axles in your ZX, but you probably already have the larger R-200 differential. The Maxima CV axles will only fit into an R-180.

Only to another Maxima owner…

ok cool

 

i can still use the injectors, and the starter, and alternator, fuel pump, little things here and there

 

so i could use the n47 head and the trans
