i have a 1989 300zx na automatic, and whhile i love that car to pieces, i have caught the performance bug. about a year ago, i decided my goal would be to swap in the turbo motor with some heavy modifications. so i went on the hunt for a parts car, and found two. both are 85's and both are turbos. i actually have one running now, so it is no longer a parts car.
anyway, i have since been thinking. should i spend thousands of dollars swapping in an outdated stock motor, or should i get a little more crazy? i love the vg30et, it is an exellent motor for its time. however, there are some great motors out there! i have compiled a list of motors that i have considered dropping in. tell me your opinion please!
1) vg30dett
2) vg33e supercharged
3) vq35de (i really want this one!!! drool, drool :twisted: )
4) vg30et (already own it... but...)
5) chevy smallblock 350 (bleck. not really!)
ive searched the forums some, but it is hard because i have dial-up. i am a busy man and not very patient. especially when every page takes 5 min. to load! so if you would shed some light on this question that would be great. even if you know a link or something! (ive already been to zbums motor swap page. i know it can be done i just wanna know if its worth it!) i am struggling to find anyone with the 350z motor. that has won my vote so far, i just dont know if it would be worth it. my budget for the whole thing is around 10k. i could go a little over.
