macambra Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 no pics yet.. been working 70 -80 hours a week.. no time to work on anything.. I know the feeling!! It took me two years to rebuild my engine. I think I spent a total of 40 hours on it over that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m1ghtymaxXx Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 (edited) Apologies for being off topic, but does anyone of you with a parts M30 have a ECU plug they'd be willing to part with? I have the ECU, but no plug, and am lost on where to source one. Edited December 16, 2013 by m1ghtymaxXx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluDestiny Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Wiring specialties should carry new plugs for JECS nissan ecu's. There was a thread similar to this on zilvia today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brucethe third Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Been a while, and I cant get into my old account. Here's how the car sits now, still need some modifications to the rear end mounting bushings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbogrill Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Interesting stuff! What would be the benefits of doing this swap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brucethe third Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Finally got to drive it. I chose to do this swap because I had the parts, and my stock differential was shot, and I broke a stub shaft. The infiniti brake calipers are far superior to the 79zx calipers, the infiniti rotors are dimensionally identical, but use a drum style emergency brake. The infiniti differential is 3.9-1, the stock is 3.7-1. It widened the rear hub to hub by about 2”. I plan on building another zx, but I plan on using the j30 underpinnings. I doubt this is a swap that would be worth it to anyone who didn’t have the parts on hand and easily accessible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brucethe third Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 The Infiniti rear does afford a small amount of toe adjustment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
