Hey guys! This is an RB26-Swapped 1991 Nissan 300ZX pushing 650 HP to the rear wheels, owned by Cason here at Royalty Performance in Atlanta, Georgia. The car is an absolute weapon, with plenty of custom bits throughout the build, inside and out. After the stock VG30DETT was removed from the engine bay, a RB26DETT was its replacement, quickly receiving a substantial upgrade in the form of a single, Borg Warner S362 turbocharger. Enjoy!

I don't think it's such a good idea to have the exhaust through the hood and to be breathing exhaust gases for a longer time

What're you a girl or something
The torque is what makes a VG special but that "drop a 10mm socket in the engine bay" joke had me rolling. No Nissan lover will hate this RB swap...jealous that you drove one that is well sorted!
JUN auto still holds their record for hitting 262mph in a 900hp Z32 back in 1991 using the VG engine. It is definitely an underrated engine but there are more parts for practically everything else lol
@@SirRobbins www.thedrive.com/sheetmetal/17228/theres-a-262-mph-nissan-300zx-for-sale-in-japan this?
Had me rolling because I remember dropping a 15 mil wrench on top of the trans tunnel and sold the car and still never found it
300zx is going to be a car of mine. a TT one would be awesome but this rb26 one would be better
The Driven Path that damn 10mm socket. Lol
the 300 zx looks great even today better than a 350z
Much, much better looking.
I think the 350/370 will age better. The 300 is a step in the evolution
I completely agree! I dont think the 300 gets enough recognition
100%. 300zx > 350z all day, everyday period.
king kong 350zs are overmade riceboxes. Thats why i bought a brz.
This car is perfect. The Z has aged soooo well. Timeless lines
StreetDreamzTT Z cars are so timeless. The only one that didn’t age well it the Z31
The z31 can look good but damn does it take alot of work.
Yep and the continued it with the RZ34, that thing is like a rolling greatest hits of Z history! Can't wait to buy a base model that hasn't been marked up eventually and do all the Nismo, Z1, AMS and SPL things to it.
love the looks of 300zx even more than supra and gtr
One headlight is enough for 650HP car. I like this guy
It has 2...on the close up I thought I saw a really small light pushed to the corner?... maybe I responded too quickly, we'll see.
Yeah he has one little one next to the duct lol
wow cmon guys they took they headlight off for weight reduction ughhh idiots
Lenwood Cruze lol yeah
ImReeflexx the light that is removed for the turbo is the ‘bright light’ or ‘high beam, I’m not sure on the terminology. The light that is closest to the fenders is just the normal headlight. Also this aftermarket bumper has the fog lights removed.
No matter how much stronger the 2JZ is, in terms of sound RB26 is KING.
Couldn't have said it better myself
+TheGreener121 I prefer the deeper rumble of the 2J, but I'm biased.
🤣🤣🤣 2JZ the world
2jz idles like v8
I love that they sound like a deeper throatier streetbike lol
As a kid I loved the 300zx, I still do.
Never knew what love was until I bought one of these cars
Your videos are pure art, very beautiful. It's amazing to listen the sound of the car properly and at the same time listening to your review
Yea buddy! Nice to see the z32 getting some love.
Again, Roads Untraveled most underrated car YT channel out there. No clue why, best overall quality vids!
The Royalty performance guys are awesome! Good to see these guys getting the attention they deserve!
If not the 300zx is the most overlooked underrated car japan has ever made if you own a 300zx you would know the vg30dett is one of the best engines it holds the top speed to this day for all jdm cars which has ran 262 mph in 1995 but I love this build so much it's a iconic rb26 nothing will ever beat that but everybody should give the 300zx some recognition
You high? 1uz?
@@amirbanks8633 what?
Antonio Cervantes vg’s hardly the best platform. Do your research homes they got sc400s pushing 800 hp running Toyota 1uz-fe’s
Antonio Cervantes & I’ve owned a 300 twin turbo built to hell thing was fast but at the end of the day a skyline or built Lexus sc300/400 would House it
@@amirbanks8633 ik wtf they have 🤦🏽♂️do u not understand what I said
That's a beautiful car love the review.
There was always something about the 300z that I liked and this one is just amazing!! Cant wait til the day I get to review one!
Just beautiful man no words and I'm not even Nissan just all over car enthusiast 👍🏼💪🏼 keep up the good work brah
Great looking car for a 90's model! Some 90's cars were actually ahead of their time! Perfectly made!
Great video and beautiful car, these guys do great work as well! All the work on my Z32 has been done at Royalty Performance.
Great video content as always!
For me RB26 sound is like a therapy, I can listen it every day, every hour :)
This is what would happen if the japanese made the corvette
It’s called the FD rx7
...do you know what either of those cars are? an RX7 and a Corvette not even remotely similar beyond the number of doors lol
@@JOVANYGUZMAN84 there is zero similarities between an FD RX7 and a Corvette
Not even close to a Corvette.
Sean Price i did not lol
These should've had that RB option even though the VG motor is nice....RB looks so much cleaner
rb didn't meet export standards in the day, so they didn't bother.
Looks cleaner is possibly the only benefit ! The vg is smoother tourquier and with far better weight distribution ok so it is not as easy to work on or develop but the vg being a v6 is inherently a stronger, shorter, more reliable, better balanced engine with better weight distribution able to handle more power and torque with a superior oiling system than the rb26 (and way lighter than the same displacement rb30) why change perfection ? Granted its different, mind you after watching the entire video, why not pop an rb26 in the z lets face it the manual z had the same drive line all be it the 2wd version as the gtr
@@nickacelvn actually i6s are way smoother than v6s due to not needing counterweights and shit though
nickacelvn i agree if it was mine I'd like to have more room in the bay
justin jia damn that sucks i would've been great to have these factory
Sounds sooooooo good!!!
Love the sounds
so sick.. have always loved and wanted a Z32... One of if not my favorite car ever... Long live 90's Japanese cars!!!
300zx is one of the best looking cars of all time.
Bad ass z32! One of the mmost
Menacing looking ones I’ve seen on RUclips so far
Great car, great video :)
love these cars looks, dont like the stock engine and dont like hassle of swapping, awesome to see!
cool & clean car! GJ.
very quick and sounds nice brah
This video dope asf
I'm currently completing a 2jz swap in my MK3 Supra. This is what the concept of engine swapping is all about... job well done Mr. STEWART!
editing is great on this one. nice onboard/pov scenes.
Been waiting to see an RB26 in a 300zx just beautiful
So good to see a Zed, beautiful car and a great driver. Rb26 zed, heaven that car.
Love the video I love the story I know the feeling I love my Z32 too One day she’ll be a beast to Keep up the good work love it
OMG .. loads of Z Love from Tasmania.. thanx soo much for the upload!
Need to work on you math. Stock ‘91 z32s came with a tad over 300hp and did >150mph. So no, not “triple the horse power” nor “not designed to go over 150mph.
Fookin EPIC build !!
I love this car so much! Glad I have my 95 NA in the garage. Slowly bringing her back to life. Hoping to keep most things stock. Eventually looking into LS swap or VGdett.
That thing sounds beautiful!
Bcz of you and your video, I bought one of it and I'm learning to drive manual transmission and I'm having so much fun, my Mercedes Benz is resting in the garage for now,,
such an amazing build!
Loving the "260ZR" decal!
Once the VG is built, coolant bs deleted what else do you need to get to? People tend to sleep on the VG like it’s not a great powerful engine, the talk about it not able to make 1000hp, wth are you Going to do with 1000hp on the street. The VG30dett makes more hp than newer cars in its same class and it’s 25 years old! Half of the people that talk about the VG most likely don’t even have one or worked on one. Go work on a Nissan that has the v6 like the G35’s-G37’s q60 TT etc....the engine bay is still tight I know I was a tech at Infiniti. VG30Dett is a very reliable engine, Will the electronics fail “engine wire harness” Again for a 25 year old car. A lot of these cars are still running the original engine if maintenance has been done. If someone wants to do a swap perfectly cool, just please don’t insult perfection from the 90’s that dominate’s on the street still to this day. Have a blessed day!
Agreed! I think the problem is the inline 6 configuration is usually "easier" to service than the quad cam v6. Most techs approve that some engines, in its original engine bay, are easier to service than others! VG is proven for sure though!
I mean... Living in the same house as one... The VG is tough to work on, but the N/A one made the same HP as a N/A 350z and sounds amazing. You're absolutely right on the engine only being as good as the owner
The same people that shit on the vq are the same that will add a tt kit to their vq lol. both v6s with tt set ups lol
idillit lol I’ve seen that with my own eyes as well.
@@prismatic9804 n/a 300zx's do not make the same hp as a n/a 350z. The 300zx made 222hp and the 350z made 287hp-306hp depending on the year
This man is living my dream. But is cool I’ll get there 👌🏽
Awesome car!
awesome video as always, solid swap for a z32!
I agree with the owner/builder; nothing beats a great I6. The Z32 should never have had a V6. Still the best looking car Nissan ever made, too. If it had been offered with the RB26 it would be their best car IMO.
Yeah i loved !!!
Sounds good on video!
great video and car
Love your videos as usual! Found it funny I heard you say in the video if the japanese have a muscle car it would be the 300Z, but you said the same thing in the previous video with the 350Z Haha.
Shout out to Cason!!! Love the build
If you have ever seen how crammed the engine bay originally is on the z32, this is so much more user friendly...looks fun to drive
Good looking car with a great sound
Well done Carson, that's a super clean swap. The RB26's sound and power is pure autorgasm. My brother and I just finished an R32 GT-R build. Tuned by Jason Oefelein at Portland Speed Industries using a Link G4 platform (what I've run on all my builds). It's making an honest 620whp with twin GT2867r disco potatoes on e85, putting it to the ground with AWD and a PPG transmission. Although it's not as sexy as a big single, smaller twins are making boost at 2500 rpm and in full berserk mode by 4K. Damn thing taps out at 9K redline, so it's a very unreasonable about of acceleration by any standard. I'm used to winging out SR20s, so all that bottom end torque from the RB is intoxicating.
8:33 * points behind * "light front end"😂😂
Back in the day I lived within walking distance of Ford, Nissan and Dodge dealerships. Used to go sit inside the 300Zs, Stealths and Daytonas but ended up getting into fox bodies. 300s, Starions/3000GTs, RX7s, and NSXs were seen as supercars back then. Good memories.
Love these cars. This one sounds great. Wouldn’t mind having a twin turbo version of the zx of my own. Jeez, I love the 90s.
Awesome car love that RB swap
My favorite chassis with my favorite motor. That is insane and sounds amazing. I need me one.
Love this car so much my dad has one when I was a kid, I cried the day he sold it 😂
Awesome Z. I love it, love the sound, love the looks love the ATL.
Was that lake Lanier??
Sweet!
240Z with RB26DETT, but not converted to 1 big turbo, but 2 smaller turbos to eliminate that huge turbo lag. 600HP, this is reliable and dependable HP for this engine and for street use you don't need more. So yh...
This would be my dream car :)
sounds great
Favoring the edge of that road bro!
That is awesome! And motive DVD proved the stock RB26 can hold well more than 600
I like the BOV sound on this thing
Z32 plus RB26! Best of both worlds! 😍
Ultra proper
I also grew up with Z's! loved them since birth, My mom had them, once I was old enough to drive I had 85' 300ZX then after my first job I purchased a 91 300ZX TT god it was such a beast and so ahead of its time. loved the interior it has such a great cockpit design how the climate control is focused at the driver its just great! The engine setup was so sweet how everything was split into two basically, loved how it had dual intake and exhaust and how it was split like that, Sadly once the 350Z came out and there was no "factory" turbo option I never purchased a Z again :( working on the Z32 DETT was a pain and wayyyy over my head just the vacuum hoses alone required a damn map. I eventually sold it because I didn't know enough how to fix it myself once it started needed more work
Ugh, this makes me so excited to get my z32 on the road! Only difference is that I have a built rb25 in mine with a slightly smaller BW turbo.
Nothing wrong with rb25! I have a rb26 just sitting in my garage but I'm currently running my rb25 with no intentions on swapping out yet. #Rb25ftw
@@clutchkickpj693 definitely not! Unfortunately I will still have a stock series 1 head since my engine build was unexpected, but I went pretty overkill with my bottom end. 9:1 cp pistons, turbo tuff rods, king bearings, arp main/headstuds, nitto extended collar and oil pump with an extended sump. I just have a t4 257sxe 1.22 ar so id be happy with 510-520 wheel on 93!
What's your Instagram?
Mitch Morgan did you buy a swap kit for it?
@@WonkaFab super late reply, but my insta is z32_mitch
Such a good idea, haven't seen this before.
Literally filmed 5 minutes away from my house. Pretty damn cool to see the shots of lake Lanier right by the dam. No pun intended😂
Daamn these age soo good
Amazing
Beautiful car, sounds great too! I've always loved the factory JDM front end on these.
thats not factory front end though
@@matthewheffernan3877 You're right, it doesn't have the integrated turn signals on the front end. My mistake.
such a beautiful car
Im in love with that Fairlady...
The RB is probably the best sounding engine Nissan has ever made. If my VQ goes in my Z, im swapping an RB26/28 in it.
Seen that FD in the background drift at the Itrack events in Lanier
MarkMorbidity you’re more than welcome to come by anytime! We are open to the public :)
awesome we did a rb30de swap on my friend 84 300zx turbo.. And added a supercharger. stock motor it made like 384 at 12 psi was surprised
Always loved the 300zxs
I recognized that as Lake Lanier immediately.
dftns19 satan’s favorite lake
Buford dam
The fastest Nissan promod is powered by a VG30 and does 6.16 seconds on the 1/4 mile .lazcano racing team hold the title .
That’s why I’m wondering why everyone wants to swap?
Sweet deal 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Reason y i love RB's
Japanese in-line 6’s sound amazing! Nissan and Toyota should bring them back.
I subscribed!! 😝
Always loved the z32 it's a car before it's time
Beautiful car to put a 26 in. I love the 300 so much
My dream JDM car and engine choice!
RB sounds much better than the VG! .. Opinion of course 😆
My two favourite cars combined
The 300zx is an amazing cruiser.
