one day i would love to do this swap plus a twin tubo kit
not bad
Those cars are usually pretty heavy right?
How much do the cars above weigh?
i dont know but the engine looks like it fits just right an the turbos for the kit goes under the engine so perfect swap n my eyes just the engine alone should be wht 400hp add a twin turbo u should easily be at wht 700hpOriginally Posted by Atlblkz06
That Would Be Badass
I'd start with a different vehicle, Personally, I have never liked 300zx's...
LS1 swapped imports are great. Ditch the boat anchor VG30DETT for a more reliable and efficient aluminum V8.
IIRC the TT models weight ~150lbs more than the NA cars and I imagine that with this motor swap you might lose more weight than that, not mention the lower center of gravity. That looks much much easier to work on than the stock TT motor.
I need to get myself a slicktop 300Z and do this swap.

im thinking about doing this swap

Sweet, I like it. Not a huge fan of the 300ZX, but def. a fan of unique swapsin my book
I thought you were thinking about trading for an integra
wonder how much a swap like this will cost plus the twin turbo,s wht u think IA more than 10grand. an after the swap wont the car be bascially a super car like a lambo or ferri killer
But what about the weight distribution?!?!?!?
Its not a big deal. An LS1 is only 450lb so its not heavy. The stock engine is probably around the same since you have the turbos etc etc.
Oh wow, there's actually space under the hood now.
Lol, first thing I thought too.
^^^ Agreed...I worked on a couple non turbo 300s and man, talk about no room to work.
The LS is a very compact engine...not much bigger, if at all, than DOHC V6s...as you can see.
Wow, it's incredible how much room there is. The VG30 is such a turd.
that is very true.
In this car it might would be pretty cool. But when I see them in Honda civic's or something, its just retarded. I mean, big motor + light car = no traction. So its pointless. But I kinda like this setup. Maybe in a Supra?!

For some reason this swap just bothers me, I don't know why..
why does it bother you?
It just doesn't seem right, just a personal opinion. Nothing is wrong with the swap and I do not know much about the pros/cons but anything that has a swapped push-rod V8 is cool. The swap just doesn't ummm fit? Does that make sense? Sort of like putting a SR20 in a Viper, it is just something I wouldn't do. That's all.
I know what you mean. ITs because its so clean with all the clutter gone. It just looks out of place. We're too used to pack/cluttered engine bays lol.
