Default How hard is it to replace an engine?

Taking engine from wrecked 350z 05 with 12k miles manual harness and ecu and putting it into a

2004 auto car with 54k miles, how hard would that be to do and does anyone have a how-to guide or anything like that.


Also how would such a move affect resale value?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but only '07+ Z's have the HR...

So why is this in the HR section?

its going to be more then that.......

you need to also swap:

transmission
gauge cluster
gauge cluster control box
pedals
center console
final drive is optional

talk to GTM motorsports, i think theyve done this before to the tune of 10k for the transmission alone.

I don't mean to insult, but if you're asking these questions you in no way need to undertake this yourself.
