Hr Engine

 

One word question: why?

Hope the answer isn't: "to save money".

 

i bet he thinks it will be plug and play

 

Because my 2006 engine burns a lot of oil & my engine blew .

 

Yeah I know that it ain't plug & play. It would of been nice if it was.

 

 

You have the ecu for that motor?

 

Were you able to source all the other bits needed for the swap? Tranny, ECM, harness(es), etc.

This is an interesting "swap" to me. As others (and you) have said, "not plug and play" but breathes new life into the car if all the ancillary pieces are there. In for the finish!

 

When there's a will, there's a way.. Don't forget to replace your hood, too.. and then get a custom license plate that says, WUZA DE.

 

Yes I do.

 

I Bought the whole Swap, Every Thing That I Need To Make This Z To Start

 

Wow- so you bought the entire front clip off a HR-equipped Z to complete this swap? Radiator, steering rack, starter, intakes, and fuel lines are different, as we detailed in issue #12 of Nissan Sport Magazine. But that's not even the hard part- diagramming the wiring harness differences and pin outs to make the ECM, BCM and ABS computers work together is a ***** and a half. My SCCA Touring 1/2/3 Z33 racecar works OK, but a street car is a whole different deal.

 

I would've just bought an HR Z at that point.

 

doooooooooooh

 

Not to mention the transmission, clutch, CSC (or CMAK maybe). Whole different animule.

 

I bought the engine, tranny & ecu with 65k from B & R Auto Wrecking & One Of My Buddy Stays Buying Crash Zs 240s an parts the **** out of them So he Got A Hold Of A Hr . Bought it from him For cheap . So I Decided To Do The Swap.

 

Yes

 

Didn't feel like spending 8 to 10 grand on another Z .

 

I got all that

 

So now you can go back and buy the rest of the parts you need to complete this swap. It'll be easier to know you need to swap the steering racks in order to get the HR in. Like I said, the parts are not the biggest problem, the bigger problem(s) will come when you try to integrate both electrical systems together. Nissan engineered the DE and HR differently and their electrical systems are significantly altered.
