  • This is a video I made a couple of years ago and just now got around to uploading it. It shows you how parts of this swap came together. Have had on and off cooling issues from 2009 to 2013 and it is finally getting completely re-done (Cooling system) and several other things this fall.

      you obvioulsy dont know anything about these cars. the stock engines in them are fast as is, and with a little tune you can easily make mean power. get off the internet before you give more people autism from reading your comments.

    I am doing a somewhat different swap with my 96 Z32 slicktop. I am going with the VK45DE with a CD009 Z34 6 speed and the Z32 TT rear end. Good build you started. I did a lot of research and your build did help with some troubleshooting. Will be posting my videos later this fall or early spring. But really enjoyed your commitment.

    Just trying to learn here. Why would you swap the engine when you can achieve the new HP with the VG30?
    Is it plans for more further boosting?
    Is it worth the money and time?

    I always thought the 300zx should have come with a 3.0 inline six. Would have been a much better car. With inter changeable GTR parts etc. Ive owned TWO TT Zs and this configuration just seems better to me. Not that Im more qualified than Nissan engineers but yeah.

    Nice swap and a lot of great info. Shiner TX? It's ironic that I found this video by chance because of a poor Z sitting at the end of my town in PA with a blown engine, because the company I work for had a job at the brewery there. A couple weeks before we were going to ship out, they hired a different crew. Heard that it didn't go too well for them. Wish I woulda been out there. This would have stopped me in my tracks just for how clean it is, the RB26 swap would have blown my mind! Good work, subscribed

    Hi nice swap
    I'm from Mexico and I'll like to do the same swap as you did.
    Please help me on my questions.
    The rb26dett can work with the oem tranny of z32, I seen your video and I don't understand if is awd or rwd and if you use the tranny of the z32.
    Thanks for reading my message and I'm very interested on made your swap into my car.

  • @Salvisol

    It's always puzzled me why Nissan never did this or 350-370Z with Skyline/GTR parts. Even if it was only a limited run. Yet... they made the insane Juke GTR for an insane price. Same problems as General Motors!?! Too big to know which way is up? They would have sold a lot more Z cars.

      @ScottHD  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      If I had to do it again, I would have probably stayed VG30DETT. It is VERY expensive ($20,000 USD on up... I had spent closer to $30,000 but over 3 years time)

    • @ScottHD
      @ScottHD  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      The RB26 = 2.6L. The VG30 = 3.0L. It makes more power, but less torque than the VG30DETT that was in it previously.

    Why bother, the vg30dett is a good engine.

      Good engine..?? Why do most if not ALL swap to the 2JZ or RB26..?? There is way to much on that VG30 to even mess with it.

    That much time, money and effort into a VGTT would make it super dooper fast.
