VK56!!
Nothing like a 5.6 V8 turbocharged to satisfy my thirst for more power!
It might take me a few years to complete the swap
Preliminary plans are
Forged Internals
Cams
Bigger Injectors (E85)
Plan on using my PTE6765
And a ton of custom fab work!

Haha! Coooooooooool
How does the height compare to the vh45? -
Will it fit or it is gonna look retarded as a lightning swap in a SN95?Elitist Prick Black Z owner.

This all was found by googling. I am not 100% of accuracy, but sounds right. -
If its fits in a 350z, it'll fit a z31 with no problems.Neil86t;n767556 wrote: Will it fit or it is gonna look retarded as a lightning swap in a SN95?

Looks like a lot of work ahead. What trans will you use?Prius… because Pretentious wouldn't fit across the back of the car…
Cheap, Fast, Reliable - pick any two

Yup, that guy makes a z32 adapter.badboyz31;n767572 wrote: 350 or 370 tranny with an adapter from my main man brett collins at collinsadapter.com -
I wanted a VK56 for my 88, but I settled for the 5.3 instead. I'll be watching this one.
Someone out there in internet land makes swap kits for the Z33, perhaps some of the components could be adapted for the Z31?5.3 LSx Z31 -
The z32 and z31 share the same bolt pattern.i r teh noobz;n767579 wrote: I wanted a VK56 for my 88, but I settled for the 5.3 instead. I'll be watching this one.

The vk56 to z32 transmission adapter will work the z31 transmissions. -
But alex, think of the starter, doesn't that mean you have to use the vk->vg adapter AND z32 bellhousing+starter? -
Yup. Thats correct.
I already have the z32 trans in my Z now. I still have the z32 bell housing sitting in the garage. So yup, all I need is a z32 starter.
AND get this! The crank of the vk56 accepts the flywheel of the z32, no modifications!
Pretty straight forward! -
I was referring to engine mounts. I think SIKKY makes a kit.5.3 LSx Z31 -
The real question: What kind of numbers will it support compared to your already powerful VG.
This looks like a lot of fun.1986 300ZX factory Turbo 2+2 5 speed swap. 1985 Toyota MR2. Floor boards gone. Good fabrication practice.
