Default 350z that was stolen with LS1

I remember reading a week or two ago about a 350z being stolen with an LS1 in it. I couldn't find the original thread. I was visiting another 350z forum and came across a thread of a guy selling a built shortblock. The thing is he said he is selling it because he is putting an LS1 motor in. I just thought this may be the stolen LS1. It could be totally unrelated, but it may not be. If anyone knows the guy that had his car stolen let him know. Here is the link:

Ugh? How did you come to that assumption. That's Quamen on this forum:

BTW, I think that LS1 that was stolen was crashed and recovered down the street wasn't it?

There are a few 350Zs with LS#s, so what? I believe the OP has good intentions but unfortunately he/she is just uninformed.

I didnt mean to accuse anyone, as I said in my original post. I was just saying it might be worth checking out. If my z was stolen I would want help finding it. In this case its nothing but it could've been something.

If any 1 of your cars were stolen you would want any tips possible right. Even more so with noahs car since he has like what 4-5x what the car is worth dumped into it.

Good looking out would be if the dude had the correct MOTOR to start with. Noah had an LS2. This is an LS1.

I'm confused.

The car that was stolen already had an LSx engine, iirc. Didn't it?

The posted link shows someone selling their built VQ35DE longblock, to pay for an upcoming LSx project.




If the stolen car had an LSx engine already in it, what does a VQ engine for sale have to do with anything?

I think he was assuming that someone was selling their built block because they want to acquire the stolen LS1 parts.

I'll bet that the thief was pissed off when he/she/they realized how unique the car was.
