2JZ260z 0 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 How much was the bellhousing/clutch setup from them? I'm in the US and was thinking about doing this, but that is my one obstacle so far. I've got the W58 laying around AND a 350z 6 Speed so...lerpderps Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HendoZ 0 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 w58 bell housing and flywheel/clutch stuff is around 1100. z33 6 speed is 1300-1500 depending on the revision you have. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
2JZ260z 0 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Can you link me the numbers for those pieces? I have a w58, but I need the those pieces to attached it to 1UZFE Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Malicia 0 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Hey, Nice build. just purchased the obx itb setup for my sc400, wondering what TPS you have used and what mods were needed to fit the setup? Cheers, Lynden Quote Link to post Share on other sites
szoylent.green 0 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Looks like you didn't have to do any cutting / sectioning of the oil pan? I saw on some other 1UZ swap threads that large chunks of the oil pan need to be sectioned out and welded back in. So on a left hand drive car, the engine fits without any clearance issues. Are motor mounts pretty simple like the LSx, just fab up mounts that bolt to the factory Datsun holes and the 1UZ mounts? Any other clearance issues, steering, crossmembers, brake cylinders to worry about? This looks like the way to go, I've been toying with the idea of LSx swap, but was never really keen about a truck motor in a light quick car like the Z. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John1jz 0 Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Car looks great on track. I currently run a 240z with standard 1jz which generally get used on track now so I'm building a mild 240 as a runaround. Couldnt think of a better engine than one from this family so bought myself a 3uz-fe with auto box, loom, ecu and all the little bit I thought I'd need. I've had it running for a bit on the floor while I finish the wiring ready to put it in the car. I'm now getting to the stage of engine mounts and in all the threads I've read, noone mentions them in any detail or show any pictures of what they have done. I'm not sure why but I'm thinking they are not easy. I have a front sump engine from a GS430 and getting a rear/mid sump is proving very difficult. I've taken a few measurements and think I can get away with the front sump but it's very close and the engine will need to be just off the baulkhead. Any chance you could take some pice of the mounts and how the sump clears the crossmember? Thanks John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RUSSJZ-ZED 10 Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 (edited) Rear sumps are really a mid sump(they don't go that far back) The one on the right in the pic is from a 3UZ I put into a 928, on the left is early 1990's 1UZ (soarer? ls400?) I picked up to experiment with. as you probably already know , 1UZ, 3UZ sumps are interchangeable, Edited November 26, 2016 by RUSSJZ-ZED Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KevvinG 1 Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 ROVDriver hasn't logged on in almost a year but I was hoping someone may be able to answer my question. How did he do his dash like that? It looks stunning and it's exactly how I'd like mine to look! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
