chuckmorgan79 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I have an opportunity to finally get an S30. I have a 91 300zx NA lying around that's about had it. Is there anything worth while I can move to a 280z? I was wondering about the diff and maybe the hubs etc to get a modern set of wheels on it. I don't think I want to swap the V6, unless I could turbo it. My long term plans involve a RB26, LS1, 2jz, or maybe a 7mgte. Thanks, Chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators BRAAP Posted April 26, 2008 Administrators Share Posted April 26, 2008 Chuck, Nothing from the Z-32 is a "bolt in" for an S-30. Yes, you can use the hubs, diff, etc, it all depends on your fabrication and engineering skills. The Short nose diff conversion has been done, quite a bit of work is involved, and typically it is usually done for the for the Q-45 short Nose R-200 diff or the R-230 out of the Z-32TT or Armada. The N/A Z-32 diff is NOT really an upgrade for a 280-Z. Output shafts are weaker, ratio is quite deep at 4.10:1, and the viscous LSD??? Well, that Viscous crap has been beat to death in other threads on this forum, in particular the stickies in the drive train forum. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
