  • 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.

    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.

    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

    3 yr process .. I would have NOT done it. I like it simple and easy. The other issue is this style 300zx never made it to the street racing scene in the 90s and the early 2000's ... So this car alone is NOT a head turner and nobody is looking at them. But you did one hell of a job and i give you credit for it.

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

      Lion Celica I know it's stupid but Iive in the city a lot of stop and go with a 20 mph speed limit. Hope that answers it.

      I live in the city too. Austin Texas 3rd worst traffic in the nation right after LA and NYC. I love manual, but goddam I know whachu mean. I stay two hours later at work just to avoid rush hour! But that works for me and lets me still drive stick.
