thats why you use the 25 tranny and oilpan, i dont know about fitment in the z but thats how you fit it in an s13-14

 

<satire>We should get a Z and put an SR20DET in it. It'll make it closer to 50/50 weight distribution and make the same HP with a few upgrades. Sure we'd have hell with the wiring harness but the rewards would be great. </satire>

If you have any questions, refer to this tenative pricing chart for my prices: http://www.akgmotorsport.com/answerprice.html

Did you know 1 and 2JZs fit in S13s?

 

well a SR20 would be a 'okay" swap in a 350Z.
there was just a SR20 swap in a old Datsun 240Z... its very badass.

why he went with the 26 is well.. more power. bigger is always better when it comes to size, and plus parts for the 26 is alot easier to come by here in the states.
all you would need is a Rb20 pan, and Rb25 tranny, and driveshaft... which im sure would have to be cut and or have a custom one made.
im guessing on the oil pan too, im just guessing that it would be almost the same type of swap as you would do in a Datsun Z.
if it were me, and i had a 350Z and wanted to be different i would deff stick with the VQ and stroke it, turbo it, build it... you get the idea.
or a VG30DETT

as soon as im out of school and start working, and done with my my 280Z hybrid ill be buying a 350Z.... but im doing something WAY different...

 

i don't understand why people are so sceptic about the Z being AWD. I mean, people do this to Tiburon's and Neon's for the rally races, why not the Z, and again those Z's were for Pikes Peak so i wouldn't doubt it.

 

Have you guys tuned the SR20DET to high HP yet?
Most of the parts are j-spec. If you choose the GT2540, GT3037S, T78, T88... they are all made for LHD and don't fit without modifications. I was so dissappointed when I recieved the parts.
I don't think the SR20DET would be a good chice. In high hp applications the engine is laggy and you need to change all internals.

VQ will be all right in the future. You can get low compression Pistons already and lots of other things. By the time the engine will take high hp and turbo boost easy.

 

japanease companies make their parts for lhd?
or do you mean rhd

 

Oh yeah, where's my head?
RHD!!!
LHD would be pretty nice!

 

Wow haven't seen this beauty in a while.


Who dug it up?

 

ok then, i know the GTRS turbo from HKS (wich does fine for pretty much any setup on a silvia) does fine on lhd, you should look into it

 

GTRS maybe because it has an internal wg. and just replaces the stock turbo on the stock manifold. If you want to go bigger (GT3037s in my case) you have to weld and weld and weld.

 

cant argue with that
your car have a website or do you have any pictures

 

pics will be on www.battleparts.com soon.
car has to be tuned. it's the car of my buddy.
s14 with Gt3037s, HKS GT i/c, PFC and other goodies. it's in the workshop together with my T78 FD and some supras (T78, T88H) at the moment.

Cheers Dom

 

ooooh

 

I'll do some pics once it stops raining here.
Pm me your e-mail address so I can send you some pics.

 

hey maybe i missed something but i havent heard or found anything going on with this project anymore? any updates?

 

Any updates, gentlemen?

 

Have u had it on a dyno yet?
Looks AWESOME!

ST

 

Sharp lookin' g5 , why'd you trade your Z?

 

I was thinking about a swap and asked Unstable-Hybrids out in GA about it. I asked for an AWD R34 (6-speed) RB26 with an MFD showing OBD II diagnostics. They gave a rough estimate of $20k. That's a lot of money, but seems other Z owners have spent close to that much on engine/aero/wheels/sound mods.

 

20k is definatly on the high side but think of the RB26's potential. you could easily get 400+ hp with very little effort.
