Project 300zx Engine Reveal!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 окт 2024
- I bought this project Z32 300zx as a shell a few month ago and have been trying to decide on a motor to swap into it. I knew for a fact I did not want to put the original VG30 into it because of the headache they are to work on. But I recently came across a Nissan 240sx in the junkyard and decided to use the low milage motor from it! I have personally never seen this swap done, so I'm excited to build something unique!

That first freaking engine shot transition was so clean it was trippy.
had us in the first half 😂
criminally underrated, honestly my favorite automotive channel.
Means alot man 🙏
You're getting really good at transitions man, love your stuff
everytime the camera moves im expecting a random transition. cant trust nothin no mo
Plot twist. Mike always uses transitions because he doesn’t know how to work on his cars so he pays someone else to and edits it to make it look like he did. 🤓
@@robtorress even as a joke thats garbage
I respect the focus on other projects and stuff, i can imagine after so much working on the 240 it can be draining and could burn you out, i can imagine there are also people complaining about not seeing 240 progress, but screw'em you keep doing you man, i can watch anything you put out Mike, thank you for the content and for your self
Thank you for being so understanding homie, means alot!
Plus there's a KA involved in this build, so it's still related! People considering a KA-T swap will still probably get a lot out of the Z build content even if there will be some challenges that are unique to the Z platform. Plus, while I'm definitely in the S-chassis camp, I've always had a bit of a sweet spot for the Z32s, so I at least don't mind. Fact of the matter is, if Mike wants to keep building the channel, and continue beyond the repair of his S13, he _has_ to branch out otherwise it'll become harder and harder to come up with really good content. Just getting through the winter when it sucks to work on a car in Chicago was probably enough of a struggle... Luckily, people seem to enjoy junkyard diving!
0:36 i didn't even realize it was a different car😅 good editing
The first import I ever seen in real life was a fairlady 2+2 & it was absolutely so sick and brought me to the import world and I have never left that was 10 yrs ago !!!
I absolutely love the z32 fairlady, such a perfect body design
I'm a fan of your channel! here in Brazil we don't have that variety of cars like there!! super sports cars or jdm cars. These junkyards that visit for me are a dream haha. One day I want to move to your country!!
You and Kevin from @junkyarddigs need to do a collab episode where you go get an old American car running
A few friends and I have been contemplating doing a kat in a z ourselves here in Florida,what we were thinking was to use the whole excessive adapter kit and the sr-z mounts, fuel lines just flip on the bottom of the car, actually was gonna use a hardbody flywheel and retain a vg clutch, stock driveshaft and driveshaft mount, and I literally was underneath a sr20 swapped z the other day,for mounts all they did was basically extend the pedestal towards the engine
Love how informative you are man im rebuilding a single cam ka out of a d21 right now and watching this video helped me feel better about the vacuum lines there are so many on the damn diagram and I don’t wanna use half of them 😂😂
17:11 Taco Bell is calling 😅
Excited for this Z32 build; one of my favorite cars. I like that you are using a KA24 engine; Im curious to see how it performs in the car. I assume it will help lighten and balance the car's weight distribution.
Thanks for sharing!
0:33 ngl that was a clean ass transition
Always looking forward to the next video
the 300zx is my dream car, so happy to see someone enjoy it!
First vid from your channel, sweet transitions, can't wait to see what you do with it.
If you have to drill in a tight area, you can get a right angle drill or there are right angle attachments you can get for a regular drill that are really handy. Stubby drill bits can also help. I use a right-angle attachment from Milwaukee on a regular drill that takes hex bits and with a collection of stubby bits, that has gotten me out of a few tight spots (pun totally intended)!
Glad you went over the vacuum lines... I need to sort all that out on my KA still as well. Good weather is just around the corner finally... time to really get after this stuff!
I definitely need to look into one of those right angled bits!
I can not wait for nicer weather! Looking forward to this summers progress 💪
I'm so excited for the build on dis one I know you are amazing with your build
They make an adapter plate for the ka-z Trans. But it’s seems you got it figured out! Can’t wait to see it running!
I always loved the 300zxs. I wish you the best and can't wait to watch it move under its own weight!
Honestly the best content on yt keep it up man ❤
Appreciate you man
holy shit these transitions were sick! haha xD had me rolling
Glad to see progress on the Z!
I always get excited when I see that you post a video it’s the greatest thing to sit down and have a cuppa coffee. Watch my favorite RUclipsr and get my day started. Keep up the good work never disappointed.
Just looked when you mentioned people being unsubbed and I'll be damned if I'm not one of them. Fixed that right quick.
Should be an interesting series. I'll have to hit up Payton. His car is pretty sweet. Big fan of the VG here.
I'm very curious to see how the KA feels in the Z, will definitely be interesting
And Payton is a pretty cool dude! He definitely built one of the cleanest Z32's I've seen 🔥
Most underrated car content
Can't wait to see this come together! Never seen a Ka24de in a Z32! Very interesting my man!
Thanks man! I'm looking forward to this build alot!
B18 powered for a second there lol. Seatbelts for tow straps 👌.
Mike loved the joke at first 😂😂.
I'm so excited to see more work on your 240
I can't wait to see you put in the black interior
Bro you really know how youtube is done. Best car build channel of the year so far.
Look forward to seeing the progress on this project
What's up! I'm new to your channel and I love your videos! I want to get a project car but have a very low budget. Wondering if you have any suggestions or input on what i should be looking for and how to get this dream started. Love watching you build your car and score sweet deals. Truly an influence.
I literally get excited every time I get a notification from you Prizzamike
😎🤘
So glad to see this. Been thinking a 2.4 will be decent in a z. Maxzworkz or whatever does make an adapter!
YESSS I'm so excited to follow this!!!
PRIZZA MIKE you need to invest in an auto body file belt, they work great for grinding spot welds off in tight areas, like that weird one on the firewall, suuuupperrr nice for prepping metal in weird areas before welding. usually theyre pneumatic and use alot of air.. milwalkee has a cordless one but i wonder if someone makes a wired one. i know youre a man of plug in power tools.
I honestly have always wanted one of those haha
Maybe someday I'll pick one up!
2:36 Worth noting, I've heard that the sole purpose of that hook is just to pull the chassis along during manufacturing. Though of course, that doesn't stop you from using it to pull a chassis along behind it lol
My brother has the same motor in his Nissan frontier. Pretty cool to see this in another chassis.
Bro I had a feeling you were gonna go with a KA and when I saw you pull it from the s13 a couple junkyard vids back I just knew it 🙏
Haha good guess! 🔥
soooo fn stoked on the Z32 content!
been waiting for some z32 content
I always love your videos man , your honesty my favorite Automotive RUclipsr. Loving these videos
Thanks a bunch homie! Mean alot! 🔥
So excited for this build, good job as usual mike!
Good video, may not seem like a bunch of progress made, but these are the foundations for the project! Keep it up Mike!
finally the z getting some love
this is a series im excited for
Mike I hope you know you keep me going
hell yeahh stoked for ka content 😎🔥
13:48
Just a random gen4 3sgte just casually sitting in the background 😅
Im lucky that you sid to check if i was unsubscribed, beacuse i was! Anyways i love the content and hope you get her running soon.
No way! You were unsubbed too? Thanks for checking homie, idk why that happens..
we need more zx video Mike!
Gotchu!
greetings from Poland eastern Europe
You should use that tan interior for a budget sim rig build. Would make some cool content.
Great Content. Thank You For Sharing. Have a Great Day!❤👍
Yessss, been here from the start, no regrats! Keeping it awesome as usual.
One of the vacuum lines you deleted might be part of the IAC system. There's a bunch of vids on KA emissions deletes, or just check out vacuum diagram.
The long ones from the front of the throttle body are for the air pump and evap canister.
always a nice watch
Honestly fell for it the first time 😂
That freaking hood transition is amazing 😂😂😂
Jimmy Oakes put a sr20det in his and it looks quite at home so a ka24 turbo setup should look just as cool
Transitions so good one took me to an ad
Love watching your videos bro❤
So as a z and a hardbody owner... the vg and ka should share a bellhousing bolt pattern!!!!!! Don't neglect to do some research I guarantee you'll need a custom clutch. But I always told myself I'd put a single jingle on boost in my z32 if it popped!!!! Just saying the vg30de has a shit ton of bottom end reliability. It's the timing jobs and sticky injectora that get yah. Another plus. I hear alot of 240 sx owners using the z32 transmission lately .... they do have a pretty chill gear ratio
woah just found out yall are from illinois! siiiiick
🤘
This is really cool Nissans like the Z's and the S's aren't really seen alot here in the Netherlands (can't speak for all of Europe) so i really like to see where this is heading.
Your friends fg2 is fire
8:52 no hesitation when you yeeted that.
😅 YEET!
Hey man! Do you know any good pick n pulls or junkyards in southern illinois? Also, yet another great video man! Keep it up, loving the determination and amazing work!
Honestly I think this is going to be a pretty good engine for the Z even non-turbo because I've seen people put the sr20s in them and the sr20s have like no torque the ka24 was designed for the D21 Hardbody a truck so it's a very Torquay engine for 4-cylinder so I think it's going to do a very good job in the Z
fun fact: the engine in the video im fairly certain is a DE, the older E head kinda is meh, 3 valves per cylinder, SOHC
also is it normal for OHC engines to have no actual removable bearings? as in the head is the bearing?
Heck yeah bro, look forward to this build
The trans plate is different from auto to manual. The auto is basically half of the manual plate. Wish RUclips supported pics. Have the manual plate within 5 feet of me lol. If needed I can figure a way to send it to you. Would love to have one of my spares used in one of your builds.
Thanks for the clarification man!
I just realized I don't think I can run that plate with the adapter kit I have haha
I've seen people run without the plate an just use washers. From what I understand it's just a clutch dust cover. To try and keep dust out of the Trans bell housing. I'm a nut job and like to keep all the oem I can.
Legendary, great work on the car man/
Appreciate you man 🙏🔥
Think you’ll regret not going the VG, how much they want for the one at the junkyard? Missed opportunity being a Honda guy to go a k24 swap, would be good for the channel
Sick keep us posted 🎉🎉🎉🎉
more 300zx content please!
bro is cutting the hardest transitions lately
Fuck yeah Ka baby! I made a video on my channel on everything i deleted on my intake manifold! There is a lot of parts on those intakes that can get thrown in the trash
Yo great idea, a lot of these parts are swapped into s chassis so it would go backwards right?
It unsubbed me too! Thanks for the reminder
Thanks for checking man 🙏🔥
Here in Norway, in the town I live it is a 300zx with a 500hp ford cosworth engine and a widebody sierra with a stock 300zx engine😂 Same owner on both cars
Yo whaaat
That's so cool hahahaha
I need that interior 😮
Those transitions are so good lmao
I mean if your willing to drive to Georgia my boy got a turbo ka24 for sale with the trans just has low ish compression in 2 cylinders
Can’t miss another drop keep it up 🙏🏽
ka24 to vg trans is possible with adaptor. This build is gonna be sickkkkkkk
ay yoooooo morning mike video? lets goooooo
ur videos are so entertaining, and i also love that u uplode so frequently
As long as its a nissan motor goin in a nissan ill always be down for it
what are you planning on doing with the honda B series motors in the corner next to the KA?
Bruh I was one of the culprits ! Good looks on letting me know to check
Dam you too!? Thanks for checking!
@@PrizzaMike of course bro I love watching you videos! Always cool to see your progress on your projects and I definitely have learned some things I may have not known 🤙
My guess on LX0 is 2 parts metallic black cherry 1 part ford mystic green duplicolor hgpershift may work as well...just a guess.
Can you please do a video on the white mr2? Those cars are epic. One of my dream cars especially in white so it matches all my other vehicles lol

KA swap the world 💪🏽
8:57 Talking about fire hazards, when I got my Mustang it had a burned out audio wire snipped off on one end and connected to the positive side of the battery on the other, my guess is the previous owner had sub in the passenger footwell and took it when they sold the car, as it still has a bass knob mounted under the dash, I'm assuming that audio wire is the reason why the car shorted out a couple days after I got it, (it locked the horn and lights on once I unlocked it after work, had to drive home at midnight with the horn blaring) because it hasn't done it since then and that was a couple years ago, you never know what you'll find in a used car
Hey Mike.
I finally got my 96 wrx STI!! What are your thoughts on gc8 subbies? 😊
Been here since 2021 💪🏽
I love Mike I feel like we have the same car taste Hondas and nissan
100k very soon 🎉🎉🎉
I was thinking it would be a easy drop in since the trucks came with VG's and KA's
Absolutely love you dude
