oh guys.. here one question that i could not find the answer here. need the views and opinions from u guys..

i own a righthand side Z..the questions is: can i use the stuffs such as catback exhaust, headers, intake kits that are made for lefthand drive Z. will they fit into my Z?

i wanted to buy an exhaust frm the US.will they be a problem installing the exhaust for my Z? do i need to modify the piping or anything to use the exhaust?

whats the difference between the lefthand drive Z and the lefthand drive Z apart from its steering wheel.lols. is the engine,gearbox placement difference?

cheers,
dilly.

 

only issues is headers because of the steering. the rest is the same. and since the car is a rear wheel drive, there is only one way the engine can go into the engine bay so you do not have to worry about that

 

I have a related question if anyone could shine some light on it; are the chassis between LHD and RHD identical, or do the RHD use a unique chassis compared to the LHD?

what do you mean by "unique chassis" ? as far as i know the car is the same, just the interior stuff and the steering shaft is switched. I am sure that Nissan did not make two different chassis (would not be cost effective to do so)

 

thanks Z04. at last, i dun haf to worry bout the issue again. ehehe. wht m gonna do next is to choose which exhaust i wanna buy frm the clssfied sction~ yeayy~ thanks guys. eheh

T K..m sure it has the same chassis. look at the engine bay.. look for the engine code.. it start wif Z33xxxxxxx ryt?

 

Some cars, not specifically Z cars, but other manufacturer models have had specific firewalls for LHD and RHD. It's just something I was wondering.

im not 100% positive but I wouldnt be surprised if it had a different firewall, but there aren't too many parts related to the firewall so I would worry.
