Z32Dreamer Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 So I finally made the big plunge and got my turbo motor and t-5. The car is a 77 and I would like to put the entire drive line into it. Im pretty sure I have a good idea as to what parts will be needed and what will need fabricated. But if I missed something please point it out to me. Parts list l28et megasquirt diy harness dizzy hei distributor fmic intercooler plumbing all turbo sensors turbo t-5 clutch turbo t-5 flywheel t-5 transmission t-5 transm mount t-5 drive shaft Before I start the swap I just want to make sure I have everything their. Im really still unsure about the transmission stuff. So far I have gathered that I will need the trans mount, drive shaft and diff flange off a turbo car. But if I remember correctly You can grab a r200 long nose out of a 88 300zx n/a and that will bolt in with no further modifications and I am assuming that would have the appropriate flange for the t-5 drive shaft.

Phlebmaster Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Wow!! Sounds like your car will be a screamer. I have never done a swap like that before...but to make some things easier I would take measurements of your existing drive-line/rear-end combo then put the new stuff you have together in a mock up and measure that. You can then get the measurements of the long nose R200 and add that in to the equation. As for the flange to drive shaft? I would never assume they are the same, find picture of the flange and compare with your T-5 stuff. The best case scenario is to find someone with an R200 that will let you mock it up.
